d/l difficulties @ hotel - NAT issue?

Hello all,
I am on a travelling job, and this hotel I'm currently in had decent speed for browsing, but no activity in Azureus. Some hotels totally boot me for using BitTorrent or other P2P, but since I could websurf I knew this hadn't happened.

After reading about NAT issues (I'd never previously had a substantial issue with Az), I opened ports 6881-6999, and two of my torrents were going well (though perhaps NOT actually due to this?).

Well, whatever the reason for success, it was short-lived; they totally stopped a short time later.

So, I kept tinkering with settings, and I got one of the torrents to resume, and at good speed. But any other torrents I run are red-faced and not d/l'ing.

[b]Being at a hotel, I can't open ports in the router[/undefined] - but ifone torrent will work, why would I have to? If the ports are open enough for the one torrent, why are the others effectively dead?

Any help will be awesome.
[i]Thanks![/undefined]
