Hi, I have been through the threads and realise that I need to access my router to port forward. I'm not very technically minded with things like this but can usually get by from reading similar problems and threads. But...

The router I have is the 02 wireless router ii (Thomson TG585v7) and I cant find how to access the ports to fix the 'port is stealth' message I am getting whlst using Transmission. I would be eternally grateful to anyone who can help me with this step by step. I am running tiger 10.4.11 on a powerbook g4.

Please help!!!!!!!

Usually you need to know the IP address of your router, the internal one. Then connect to it using your browser. In the user guide there should be a mention about the html interface, the username, password and also about the default IP (if you didn't change them).

You can check this site for a guide specific to your router, or at least for one similar to yours:
