Port forwarding help?

i've been trying for weeks to get shareaza and azureus working through my netgear wirleless router. but i can only get around 2kb/s download. i've done everything on the instructions to set it up. has anyone else had this problem and did they fix it. if so how. i dont wanna go back to my speedtouch modem. with that i was getting average speeds of around 450kb/s download. ive set up port forwarding, tried changing the port number. need more ideas. ive also tried the wiki pages, but still have the same problem. HELP ME PLEASE!
Port forwarding help?
Okay...... what you need to do is this:



1) Log into the router and find out the range of it's %26quot;address pool aka address range aka DHCP pool%26quot; (meaning the number of addresses it will assign to computers).



For instance, your router might use an address of 192.168.1.2, and PC's will be assigned IP addresses from 192.168.1.3 to (lets say) 192.168.1.50.



2) Once you have the %26quot;end%26quot; address (again, lets say 50), you need to change the IP address of the PC to one that is OUTSIDE of that range. Given that our example has an address of 192.168.1.50, your PC should have an address of 192.168.1.51



3) You will then need to forward the ports to the new address of the PC.



Let me know how you get on, you can always mail me for further help, and I will be online tonight for some MSN help if needed!
