How do I use burst! (or any BT client) through a Firewall or NAT/ICS?

For best results, you should open/redirect ports 6881-6890 (this will allow for 10 concurrent transfers) to the machine you’re running burst! on. If you cannot redirect these ports, but there is a port already redirected, then into Advanced: enter “–minport x –maxport y” without the quotes, replacing x and y where approriate. You may use the same value for x and y if you’ve only got 1 open port, but this will allow for only 1 transfer to be active at a time! Opening up a range of ports is strongly recommended. For more information on port forwarding, look here. I’d suggest using NatCheck to make sure your ports are properly open.
