What is Firewall and NAT Traversal in BitComet?
In the world of old bittorrent clients, non-firewalled clients and clients on publicly routable IP addresses are able to help NAT?ed nodes to communicate while downloading the same files. BitComet did a even better job for users behind NAT, it enables users behind differet NAT connected to each other via UDP. That means the download rate may boost up because it can now connect to more peers than before. Without any cofiguration, BitComet will auto dectect your internet connection ( to find out if you are behind the NAT or haven’t any successful port-mapping ) and did all those automatically. But you may also enable or disable this feature in the Options – Advanced dialog.
