BitComet question

[Quirinus]

Thanks Whacker, LeftNineEye.

I did stumble upon PortForward.com while digging around P2P support forums. It does seem amazingly comprehensive and idiot-proof for the most part-- I've even been able to make my IP static, buuut (and apologies for such a basic question) I have no idea how to find out what my router is. I think I know my router is a Billion one, but which one I have no idea. =( (I'm using a laptop btw, so I think my router is built in.)

Oh well, routers can't be built in as far as I know. Something is a router because it can route a connection among several clients through itself. So a built-in router on a laptop doesn't make sense. I'd need to be corrected if I'm ay behind latest laptop technology, though.

How do you access internet, Quirinus? Wireless? Ethernet LAN ? USB LAN ?

Uh, and also..

How did you manage to do this ?

Ahhh, I see. Looked around, there's a thing calling itself an ADSL router. I connect to the Internet using a LAN cable, which runs from my laptop to said "ADSL router".

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Not very obvious from here, but "ADSL router" is the top one.

Uh, and also..

Apologies, LeftEyeNine.....

So that's it. That's the router we're talking about and the one you need to look up in PortForward.com 's router-by-router guide list.

Apologies, LeftEyeNine.....

Get yourself a spare flesh just in case you repeat that foul of yours.
