Eliminate the chances that it could be the firewall of the router or software based and turn both off then test?

Are you using a router?

If so, go to PortForward.com, they're the port forwarding resource.

set static ip in your Local Area Connection under internet protocol version 4 (enter ip adreeses and dns..)on your pc,you need then also to disable dhcp in your router and firewall,then open port in your router(use port above 50 000),and give full access rights in your os firewall

and disable upnp in utorrent and your router

it says u have to be static ip..i have random ips ..

Remember your WAN and LAN IPs are different things. The WAN IP is the one others will see, i.e. your external one. The LAN one is used only inside your router's network - this is the one that needs to be static.

DId you ever configure your router to port forward the port you was using for utrrent? If not then it was working fine and most prob its not problem from router?
Check if router firewall it on as i have asked??

but as i think my lan ip is always random

Make it static like kazuya said. If you don't know how:
hotComm FAQ: Assign Static IP Address (Windows XP)

i cant do it..coz when i turn off its going to be wiped out..coz in our area static ips r not provided by isps

does it work with vista sp2 any idea?

[anon]

I meant a static LAN IP, not the external one.

[thecoolest]
