I use uTorrent (on Windows) for this. I'm on smart broadband too. the latest bittorrent official client works too (the unix shell based one).
i don't understand how they work, when we are not visible "from outside," but they work nonetheless.. On 3/4/07, Pablo Manalastas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I am connected to SmartBroadband via a LinkSys WRT54GL wireless router. My desktop is wired to the LinkSys and my laptop connects wirelessly to the LinkSys. Smart (Meridian Telekoms) assigned a non-routable IP address 192.168.xxx.yyy/255.255.224.0 to my LinkSys, and each computer at home is assigned non-routable addresses of the form 192.168.1.zzz/255.255.255.0 by the LinkSys. If I do bittorrent, I am expected to be reachable from outside, since I am supposed to allow bittorrent connections to my machine. Does Smart do NAT to assign to my LinkSys a routable IP address, so that my LinkSys is reachable from outside? How do I configure LinkSys so that my desktop or laptop is also reachable from outside? There are some sites (like FedoraUnity.org) where the only downloads allowed are by bittorrent. Any help will be appreciated.
