    Well I cant help u..If I dont know what firewall your using i cant tell u wht u wanna do....

    In the event that u find your firewall..u need to create some rules..this will be in the F/W's options and allow for incoming connections on ports 6881 -6999

    is this dangerous? allowing these ports to allow incoming connections?
