    You'll be unconnectable if you don't open it. If you use public trackers, it'll slow you down a considerable amount.

    and when you try to upload, you will be unconnectable, which means no one can connect to you

    Effects both your UL and DL speed. Being unconnectable means you are only abled to connect to connectable peers.

    ie. 5 connectable peers and 5 unconnectable peers.
    Each of the connectable peers are able to connect to the 4 other connectable peers + 5 unconnectable = 9 total.
    Each of the unconnectable peers are able to only connect to the 5 connectable peers = 5 total.
    In result, both UL and DL speeds are effected.

    Yes, opening ports GREATLY affect your UL/DL speed.

    As for ports, I use something else but I've heard 40000-60000 are the best.

    you don't open a port on a router.. "open" doesn't make any sense anyway

    You might want to use a port between 49152 to 65535

    The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.
