Title: Cannot forward transmission's port
Post by: iparout on February 11, 2012, 04:32:21 AM: Hi.

I installed transmission on my DNS-320 a few days ago but I cannot forward its port to my router although I have enabled UPNP and have also manually forwarded the port 51413 to my router. The port seems open from the router's interface, however Transmission still reports the port as closed.

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong (I'm a total noob when it comes to networks) but cannot understand why.

FYI, I forwarded ports 51413 and 9091 (TCP and UDP) to 192.168.1.1 (transmission's web interface is at 192.168.1.1:9091)

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks !

P.S. : There are stuff like DDNS, DMZ Host, DNS Service, QOS, SNTP, IGMP on my routers menu which are disabled. Don't know what they do or if I need to enable them to forward the port to the router.

UPnP is enabled. And 192.168.1.1. is the IP address of my NAS, not my router.

I did... Nothing happens. I can download at full speed, can upload also at full speed while downloading, but when the torrent is fully downloaded (i.e. is seeding), I cannot upload at all as peers seem unable to connect to me.
