my firewall is controlled by the mcafee and i selected open port to all devices for bitcomet
I stuck while adding port forward in IBALL router.i am using 150M Wireless-N ADSL2+ Router
where i can see in virtual server section it is asking me to add service name where i do not see bitcomet . i remembered i added both bitcomet TCP and UDP in netwotk–> router–> settings—> add service
3 days ago, as of september 26, 2015, everything was doing fine (very fine).
Then without any apparent reason, ports are blocked and all the tasks are showing 0Kb/s (zero), nothing is working anymore.
I followed all the guidelines from the help page without success.
I also tried with firewalls disabled. Both Kaspersky and Defender. It didn’t help.
I noticed that there was a Windows critical update done. I rolled back to an earlier restore point when it worked fine. It didn’t help
“Listen Port of TCP: 15920 (Blocked by Firewall/Router)”
I noticed a red light on the router, indicating that there was not internet connection. The internet connection was down the whole evening. The next day, the connection was back to normal (no red light).
Although the older versions have worked with win 10 many have had issues so the first thing I’d recommend is updating to version 1.40, then see if it helps and we can go from there.

Then the problem started with BitComet…
Perhaps I’m way off on this but, something similar has (unfortunately) happened to me in the past, from time to time…what usually happens is that, for some unknown reason, the router resets itself back to factory settings, and I have to re-forward the ports again.
Have you checked yours, to make sure that it has remained the same? (Just a thought)
I succeeded to Port forward the port used by Bitcomet to my router. (There was even a preset for bitTorent - how they think about everything, hea!)
I assigned a fixed IP address for connection with my router… etc
I added TCP UDP rules to firewalls (windows and Kespersky) but it was not working with both Kaspersky and Windows Firewall disabled anyway so the problem was not there.
It still didn’t work. Port blocked!
EDITO:Finaly!!! It’s working! When I forwarded the port I had to enter the user’s IP instead of the computer’s IP (home), but the computer’s IP was set by default and I didn’t know which one I had to select…So now, we will know that you must select your user’s IP when forwarding the port in your router!(took 5 hours to fix this problem, not counting the other days. BUT I’m HAPPY)
When forwarding your port the connections come in on your WAN IP address which is what your router uses because your computer isn’t connected directly to the internet. You need to forward that to your computers LAN IP address.
