OK I'm behind a router and I can't get any p2p application to work only uTorrent which is good but I would like to get Shareaza working so I can get rare individual songs since I have to redownload tons of lost music since my HD died on me. Any tips on how to open proper ports? Is it done via the router somehow or Kris's moms computer where the modem & router are connected to or is it done on my computer somehow? I'm a complete newb when it comes to routers. I have the TrendNet 54mbps 11g Wireless Router TEW-432BRP but I have the wireless disabled and I'm using a Cat cable to connect to it.
