    recently tried to hook up my router - linksys BEFSR41 v3
    latest firmware 1.05.00 as soon as I plug in router and set up Azureus - my downloads take off then sluggo - I am noob to the router thang so wonder if someone can assist - I have looked at the Az Wiki but get easily confused - as I do about Static IP address on the PortForwarding site- I know my router is on the list of not great routers

    Does Azureus indicate that you are connected properly (i.e. NAT OK) when you are connected to the Internet without your router?

    Good. Now you have to configure NAT Port Mapping on your router. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with your Linksys router's software, but NAT Port Mapping is what you need to configure.
