I believe, the OP is referring to incoming torrent connections so that his PC can be part of the upload streams. For this to happen you have to port forward the incoming connections to the IP of PC running the torrent client. -- Arun Khan ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
[ilugd] [OT] Port forwarding and multiple queries
Hi all, A friend of mine has got reliance broadband and he has been wanting to do some torrenting on the same. He has got the MTA 6328-1Be2S as a router from reliance . We tried port-forwarding on the device but that option doesn't seem to be there. A quick search leads me to http://www.innomedia.com/products_sohores_mta6328_1be2s_specs.shtml Now if somebody has worked with this router and knows whether port-forwarding can be done on this router. If not, can somebody recommend some other router which would give the same functionality, bearing in mind the router could talk/work with with the RJ-45 downlink/uplink port which is there instead of the regular RJ-11 which the telephone line uses. If not, if there are any other options besides changing the service providers. Any and all answers appreciated. Although my friend is using GNU/Linux specifically Ubuntu as the primary OS, this is hardware which don't think is FLOSS hence put it under [OT] tag if something else would have been better, please lemme know that as well. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal This email is licensed under http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

Why not directly plug the network cable from provider, directly into some RJ-45 socket on the PC ? And then he can do more than what is going to be provided by the router's software.

Now if somebody has worked with this router and knows whether port-forwarding can be done on this router. If you don't care for the VoIP tel. service (RJ11 ATA port), you could try replacing it with a regular fast ethernet router (RJ45 on WAN port). DLink and Linksys have various models that do port forwarding or at least a DMZ to one IP no. on the LAN. I am not sure if Reliance binds it's VoIP service with the serial no. or MAC address of the device. You will most likely loose this aspect of the service with above. If not, can somebody recommend some other router which would give the same functionality, bearing in mind the router could talk/work with with the RJ-45 downlink/uplink port which is there instead of the regular RJ-11 which the telephone line uses. If not, if there are any other options besides changing the service providers. MTNL ADSL service has worked out OK for me and they don't seem to be blocking any ports. -- Arun Khan ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
