| VPN Q?
Okay, I have a PPTP VPN account and I have utorrent. Before this whole throttling debacle, I set-up port forwarding in my router, but I suppose this doesn't apply anymore... Anyone know how to get it to go now with VPN? I'm with black logic. Utorrent just gives me a red exclamation in the status bar, with a tool tip that says "Not connectable...yadayadayada |

| You just need to make sure that your VPN provider, if they have some find of firewalling (im guessing they do) are setup to allow traffic into your new VPN'd IP on your utorrent-configured port.
Also, the flip side...if your VPN provider has no firewall setup for you, and you've been relying on NAT to protect you, that's not so effective when the outside world can reach you via your NEW IP over the tunnel... |
