Problems with Portforwarding.
View this Thread in Original format

So here's the problem:

I have opened up ports on my router and given my PC a static IP.

Althought my router is DHCP enabled, my comp still gets the same address.

When I run a torrent program, and run the port test at

http://www.utorrent.com/testport.php?port=ENTER PORT NUMBER HERE

and it says it can receive incoming connections.

When I close torrent programs, the port is no longer open, or sometimes is, and I cannot host online games either :(

Any ideas about what might be going on?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, but I did this about a year ago. The real problem I found lay with the NAT / NAPT.

PF.com doesn't mention about this, and I think it should!
