creating a fire wall port for fire

[justin]

Hi guys

I have been having trouble receiving files for fire ever since I  
first downloaded it.  I was having downloading problems on bit  
torrent for a time too, when the tech guy at CCB advised that I make  
a port in the fire wall for that program.  I remember that for that I  
had to enter in some port information, some rondom number that made  
no since to me, and also, I had to clarify the type of application  
that it was, file sharing etc.  So, I want to know two things.  Am I  
right for thinking that I need a firewall port for fire, and if so,  
what information should I tell my modern 2wire roubter?

Thanks

Justin
