How to forward ports in Linksys WRT54GS Wireless Router

(click on pictures to enlarge)
Type 192.168.1.1 in your browser's address bar.


a window might appear asking for a user name and password. Both are mostly 'admin'(without inverted commas). Press Enter.Go to the 'Applications and Gaming' Tab

Enter the name of the application for which you need to forward your port(e.g. Bitcomet), the range of ports from start to end(6881-6889), and the IP address that has been allocated to your PC by the router. Then click the 'enable' checkbox. (You can check your allocated IP by double-clicking the wireless connection logo in the notification area near the PC clock and selecting the 'support' tab of the window that opens). Then Save your settings once you are done forwarding your ports.

a big thank u to my friend anji without whom this would not have been possible:P
