Sorry -locsta- as Linksys only has that address for there wireless routers. Every wireless manufacture has different ip addresses.
I tried to search for this "Boca BEN210" and it seems to be just a router, which means it has no address or settings.
I could be wrong, :P

Dont know what kinda crap that was but ignore it.
If its a regular router or switch then you dont need to port forward.

You have to have your client on.
When tried the number that I have using with utorrent, it said "Error: I could not see your service on xx.x.xx.xxx on port (54546)" But when I started utorrent and re-enterd 54546 it said "Success"

Error: I could not see your service on xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx on port (53216)
Reason: Connection refused
yeah this is with Halite, my client open. even with other clients i am listed as unconnectable. i can still upload but not to everyone
edit: i just changed the port in my client to the one you used there and it works now
Success: I can see your service on xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx on port (54546)
Your ISP is not blocking port 54546
But im still listen as unconnectable, any ideas?

Im using Halite. i can download and upload but on some sites it tells you whether you are conectable or not and im listed as unconectable. to quote one site
Quote:
Why am I listed as not connectable? (And why should I care?)
The tracker has determined that you are firewalled or NATed and cannot accept incoming connections.
This means that other peers in the swarm will be unable to connect to you, only you to them. Even worse, if two peers are both in this state they will not be able to connect at all. This has obviously a detrimental effect on the overall speed.
The way to solve the problem involves opening the ports used for incoming connections (the same range you defined in your client) on the firewall and/or configuring your NAT server to use a basic form of NAT for that range instead of NAPT (the actual process differs widely between different router models. Check your router documentation and/or support forum. You will also find lots of information on the subject at PortForward).
If you still can't manage to make yourself connectable, feel free to ask for help on our forums.

To tell you the truth, I never heard of this client before and maybe this client is blacklisted from the tracker. Try utorrent and see if you get this message again.
