Best home network setup to allow for configuring ports
I've been trying to adjust my modem to forward connections on ports
6881-6890 for BitTorrent, but I don't think I have the best setup to do it. In the modem firmware, I'm not sure what IP to forward the ports to. I thought I should forward them to the router, and then forward them to the computers. When I tried, the modem gave me an error message saying the IP address that it forwards to needs to be in the same subnet. I'm not sure if I was even on the right track or what do to now. My network:Internet > Modem > Wireless router > Various computers
Modem's IP: 192.168.0.1 Router's IP: 192.168.1.1 The computer's IPs are assigned manually, 192.168.1.20-40
Any suggestions?
