just got new isp need help porting router

i just got a new isp and i have no idea how to port the router to download shit with torrents, is there anyway i can do it?

 

yes

 

man, pirates and thieves are dumb.

 

Port the router with a 1/4" bit. Add as many as you need.

 

well i dont know how to get into the router to add a port its an at&t u-verse router

 

a jigsaw can help you get into the router. Just be careful not to cut any wires.

 

i'll just call them and ask how to port the router

 

google your router name ip address. that's what i do when I'm using somebody else's router.

Everything you need to know and a step-by-step guide, with pretty pictures, to help you through it.

 

it basically opens up a channel that your specific program is using so you can communicate.

 

Port forwarding instructs all internet traffic addressed to a specific port to be forwarded to a specific computer on the local network. If you are hooking your computer directly into your isp-provided modem you likely don't need to worry about it.

If you're running a local network using your own switch/router you need to start reading from a non-OT source. It's unlikely someone is going to explain all this from scratch.

 

Port forwarding has nothing to do with wireless performance.
