    Most likely one of your ports is being blocked. First, get BitComet, it is a lot easier to use. Second, follow the guide found here. Hopefully that helps.

    its your prefernce on your client, i myself prefer Azurues. But as Captain says, he prefers BitComet. It's all personal pref. As long as you install Azurues under the 'Beginer' setting, you shouldnt have a problem. I only Download torrents overnight because Azurues is somehwat of a memory hog (and because i cant play cs and d/l at the same time ;).)

    What kinda router you got? Linksys?

    I have a D-Link router and it works fine for me.. No problems at all. What brand of router you use? You might have to open some ports.

    I use Utorrent myself. I have used quite a few in the past, Azurues, BitComet, BitLord, Tornado (something)...

    Utorrent is the best I ever used...

    well in azures they have a port tester. Try differnt ports and if its a blocked go to your router control panel (usually you IP in a web browser) and open up the port :D

    Find your router here. 9 out of 10 times every single listed common router has setup directions for port forwarding and a brief explanation with pictures for Azuerus and most other programs.
