Guest miracle Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Torrent client need open port for incoming connections, so I need open port in Fritz!Box ADSL router for utorrent. Do I need first set static IP address (local IP) in my PC? There is a few PCs (small LAN) that connected to internet via this ADSL router. We have static outside IP address. Computers inside LAN have addresses assigned by using DHCP. Configuration is following: C:\Documents and Settings\User>ipconfig /all Windows IP Configuration Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : UserName Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Unknown IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : No Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : XXX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.4.52 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.4.1 DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.4.1 DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.4.1 Do I need set static local IP address for this PC where utorrent client installed?
