why portforwarding ?
portforwarding enables you to get better torrent speeds. although the torrent speed depends upon number of seeders and leechers, portforwarding plays a main role in getting high torrent speeds!. experience download speed at maximum speed after portforwarding your modem!!
for old firmware visit here.
how to portforward your bsnl/dataone ut300r2u modem?
you need:
- a torrent client like microtorrent (my favourite)
- a browser: firefox( again my favourite)
when you open the torrent client for the first time ,you will asked to test the ports to get optimum speeds(shown below)
most of the times the it wont be portforwarded and you would be directed to www.portforward.com. although most of the times the site helps you in port forwarding ,it didn’t work everytime for me.sometimes it would work and sometimes it wudn’t.there was no REALIABILITY . however it did help me partially.
the following method works everytime for me.
- start torrent client.(read Utorrent).
- then in the menu bar…OPTIONS>>PREFERENCES>> CONNECTION as shown below
- uncheck enable upnp port mapping as shown,note down the random port number it will be used later. click apply and then ok as shown. now close torrent client
ACCESSING THE ROUTER /MODEM PAGE:
- now open any browser.type 192.168.1.2 or 192.168.1.1 in the address bar to log into modem/router page as shown below
- enter the username as admin and password as admin and click ok as shown above.that should get you to routers page.
- once you are in the routers page click on advanced tab as shown below.
- click on the virtual server button as shown below
- fill the details in the page.let PRIVATE IP = 192.168.1.136, PROTOCOL=ANY, LOCAL PORT=port number you noted down earlier, select single port from drop down and click apply as shown below.you will see that virtual server list is updated.
- now close the browser
- now click START>>MY NETWORK PLACES>>VIEW NETWORK CONNECTIONS
- right click on your LOCAL AREA CONNECTION>>PROPERTIES
- click on INTERNET PROTOCOL(TCP/IP)>>PROPERTIES as shown in the figure
- click on use the following IP address and enter the details as shown above.
- i am using open dns server address.you can also use bsnl dns server address but they are more subject to downtime compared to open dns server address. and this guide is not tested on bsnl dns server addresses.
- click ok to close both the windows.
here lies the catch……….
the above instructions are also given in the portforward.com. now open the browser and start surfing. if you can browse the internet pages its well and good. portforwarding is done successfully.
if you cannot browse the internet,don’t worry just restart the system.now you should be able to browse the internet .start the torrent client now.
you should be seeing a image similar to below image.
if you see the yellow triangle the port is not forwarded yet.go back to ACCESSING ROUTER/MODEM PAGE step above and redo the changes till you create a virtual server.no need to make changes in local area connection.you need not restart this time.
just start the torrent again. click on the place where you see the yellow triangle,the speed guide window should pop up.select TEST IF PORT FORWARDED PROPERLY button as shown below.
- now the browser opens automatically ,and you should see the following page
now the port has been forwarded properly.
Note:
- you may have to create virtual server every time you start your system. but its better than having low speed downloads.
- i have connected to internet using usb port.and this guide is not tested on ethernet port ,i tried using ethernet,it works fine.the only thing you need to change is default gateway which is 192.168.1.1.please try the above method once,tell me if anything goes wrong.
- visit portforward.com for more detail.:
worst case solution:
if this guide doesn’t work for you and you badly need high torrent speeds,then in the advanced tab of router page ,you have dmz (demilitarised zone) button. click on the button. you will be required to enter the the internal ip address(which can be obtained by running ipconfig/all at command prompt).
this opens up all the ports of your system to external world.it’s very RISKY(NOT RECOMMENDED) though.when i tried this the moment i opened the ports thru dmz option i was infected with loads of spyware and adware.my desktop wallpaper changed automatically and seconds later my system went on restarting,so beware!!
testing on different types of modems very soon………..
i dont have virtual server option,what should i do?
please follow nsn155′s answer below.
alright people, this for those they do not have virtual server option , all u have to do is change your modem settings to bridge connection.
initially it will set as ppoemode.first save u r modem current settings at management>settings.backup.
after u have done tht now move to advanced setup>wan>
now u will see a table. click remove on every line,and then click remove on bottom of the page, and then save/reeboot.
next after u modem is reset, again go to advanced setup>wan>u will see a table ,click edit on the first row ie pppoee row
click next, click bridging ,next,next…. and then save /reboot.
now go to control panel>networkconnections> create a new connection
click next>connect to the internet>setup manually>connect using a broadband connection which uses a username and password> click next>next>and complete the process.
and now in ur network connections u will see a new connection.click on it and enter the details and u r good to go.
and now ports will be open.happy downloading at super high speedssssss.
it will work,so dont worry. if it does not change u r modem settings as they were previously orrrrrrrr call 23234770 which is tech office of bsnl. and ask them how to change u r connection to bridge mode.

thanks a lot!!
nice work!!!
but the problem is that now instead of orange triangle there is a green one (thats good)
while on port forwarding test it still shows error that port isn’t been forwarded…
anything needs to be done here or all is working fine???
hi tushar
first of all congrats !
if you find the green triangle then its fine,its portforwarded perfectly.if it shows it is not portforwarded on port forwarding test,try refreshing the page once or twice.you should be able to see correct result.
if not download the latest utorrent.(this should be of little help though)
if you notice any faster downloads or high speed downloads than before then dont bother about these tests at all.
happy downloading
this is a great job.thank u very very much.this works. i forward port for downloading files thru utorrent & bitcomet.utorreent works but bitcomet is not working.the connection indication is still gray in colour wat can i do?
thank u daya! i am glad u got it right.
as far as i know utorrent is the best torrent client.i havent tried others till now.
ill try others too and update here.keep checking

hi,
when i try to connect to the router using 192.168.1.1 it asks me username and password.i did try using my log in data for bsnl but it did’nt work.
then i tried typing both admin ans password as admin but tht also did’nt work.
pls help me in connecting to the router by clearly wht admin and passwrd shld be used
you should not use your bsnl id and password to access router.
default is username=admin password=admin
try username =admin password =password
or else reset the modem and try the above step again.
if you are using usb to connect your modem then try accesing 192.168.1.2
you should be able to login easily
for me also d same problem. Virtual s not der plz help me:(
anjana! welcome to the oldfirmware department.check if you can fix it using the old firmware article .if you can’t fix it,we’ll come up with a solution shortly,bookmark this space.

Hi….
I am trying to forward my port for Counter Strike..but i am not able to access my modem UT300R2U by 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.2..plz help!!!
even me havin a same problem
i don have virtual server tab in my 192.168.1.1
@girish
if you dont have virtual server,check out nsn155 comment above.
@ kinshuk gupta
are you using any additional router.?
I am not using any other router…i am not able to understand the nsn155 comment..There is no response when i enter 192.168.1.1…….
Today,i don’t know how but I was able to access through 192.168.1.2……..
“FSP 2000 Version 6.2.1, AirportRd” was displayed and i asked the login and password..
but then admin-admin didn’t work…..
now what to do…I have tried all the combinations given above
thnx to nsn155.ur answer works like a charm man.nd also thnx to admin.if there is virtual srever option ,then also u can use nsn155 comment ie set in bridge mode.
now this is to both admin and nsn155 or others who have used the above method,i would like u to verify something for me
right now mine is a unlimited plan of 256kbps.so i get around 26—30 kbs.
i want to change my plan to home 500 which has a dl of around 250kbs.and is free at night.so when i have changed to this plan will i be able to get a speed around 250kbs.
when it is in bridge mode????????????????????
plz kindly reply.
i am using home 500 right now.i get around 190-230kbps.
the ideal value is 250kbps.
u may get around 190-230 kbps ,but that depends upon your locality,and the number of users there.
but one thing is for sure you will definitely get speed improvement if you change from unlimited to h500.
happy portforwarding!!
@kinshuk
are u not seeing modem page?
try admin and password as password.
this is not working for me.
should i go to the bsnl office?
1)try resetting the modem. at the back of ur modem the is a reset button.hold for around 15 secs or so, until ur modem resets . and then try admin @ admin as user name @ password.
orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
2)
Access to your DSL router is controlled through three user accounts: admin, support, and user.
The user name “admin” has unrestricted access to change and view configuration of your DSL Router.
The user name “support” is used to allow an ISP technician to access your DSL Router for maintenance and to run diagnostics.
The user name “user” can access the DSL Router, view configuration settings and statistics, as well as, update the router’s software.
here both the user name and password has to be entered the same as above mentioned
at each respective field that u use. try using these .
Thanks a lot nsn155!!!!
Now,I want to forward my 27015 port for counter strike gaming…plz help in this too.
if u have virtual server tab then port forward the same way as shown clearly by
the admin.
now if u don’t have virtual server u can portforward using my comment above.
hello,i have tried everything but still it doesn’t work
after the first save n reboot i don’t get a table i.e after clicking remove button. so what do i do????
hey i tried nsn155′s comment
after clicking remove button there s no table after reboot
wat do i do????????
just click add in the same page ie advanced setup>wan>add>next>select bridging>next>next>—————->save/reboot.
and the rest of the process as mentioned in the previous comment,
and u r done.

@gunch
@ raviabi
try downloading 2 more files simulataneously after portforwarding.if the speed wont go beyond 30kbps then its normal ,portforwarding has nothing to do with it.the problem is with the broadband plan from isp.change ur plan to h500 or similar ones.
this is to everyone out there who r complaining about not getting speed.
1)if u r current plan is ul 750 u r max speed will only be about 30kbs.
2)if u r plan is home 500, combo, combo plus ….etc then u may get around 250kbs.
REMEMBER SPEED ALWAYS DEPENDS ON NO OF SEEDS U HAVE,AND WITH THEIR RESPECTIVE UPLOAD SPEED,WHICH WILL BECOME U R DOWNLOAD SPEED.
THIS IS IF U R USING TORRENTS. IF U DO NOT KNOW HOW TO USE TORRENTS,
U CAN ALWAYS DO DIRECT DOWNLOADING ie USING RAPIDSHARE,MEGADOWNLOAD …………ETC
how do u know all this stuff…. even i need to learn them ..iam an electronics and communication engineer..
this comes thru experience.
