A search probably would have gotten you your answer. This was discussed not too long ago.

I did everything in the link that gratts99 posted and it worked great. I now don't have a NAT problem and connect to trackers. It also helped improve my speeds. Maybe I'll finally get that Ottawa DVD to finish downloading!!

Thx for the tips.

I just found this site: http://www.portforward.com/

Seems like this port forwarding issue is causing a lot of people grief.
