    Are you sure your modem doesn't have a built in NAT ? could be the cause of your troubles...
    Try testing port 1720, see if that's open.
    Also, make sure you set up your firewall so it allows traffic on that port.

    i dont have any cable modem. i have got internet connection with my ISP who has given me a normal cable wire which connects to my ethernet card. my ISP has given me a static IP address which i use to connect to internet in my win xp and my FC5 linux. so theres no modem between my pc and my ISP.

    when i try to set port '65432' and when i test it i get "Testing port 65432....NAT Error" i tried lots of other ports also. still same error. im clueless now. dont know how to proceed from here.

    i tried other ports also but still same error. i even typed these from my linux pc only. but when i test port 65432 it says NAT Error.

    i have enabled the port 65432 in my Security and firewall settings in my FC5 linux and enabled the port 65432 in Other ports button and set it to tcp. still i get NAT error

    is anyone working on azureus in linux and which is working properly ???

    also
    what is the use of the following command? what do i need to put in for published-ip and published-port

    iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -d <published-ip> --dport <published-port> -j DNAT --to-destination <private-ip>:<private-port>

    iptables -m conntrack --ctstate DNAT -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p tcp -d <private-ip> --dport <private-port> -j SNAT --to-source <published-ip>


    there are many wonderful linux software downloads available on net and im unable to use my azureus bit torrent client...:(

    There has to be a modem somewhere, it's not like you can hook a cable straight to the wall, it just doesn't work that way.
    And as for Azureus, i use it all the time, with no problem.

    hi

    i have been given a static ip by my ISP and i set it in my tcpip network configuration window. thats all i did. no modems... no routers.... no dialup connectivity.

    i can use internet in my linux but not the azureus bit torrent client.

    in your browser type http://192.168.1.1 or http://192.168.0.1

    does that take you anywhere?

    you can still use Azureus, and connect to others who are connectable, they just can't get to you.
