uTorrent + port forwarding for Mac 10.5

Hey guys

Can anyone help with port forwarding for a Zyxel IAD P2606 ? I went to portforward.com but after following all the instructions my port is still not open and uTorrent's got that yellow light shining all the time which is annoying the shyte out of me

I'm not familiar with your router, but the easiest route would probably be to put it into bridge or half-bridge mode and then dial a PPPoE connection from leopard. Or what I do, is assign a fixed ip address to my mac when identified by its mac-address on the router, and then put that ip address in the 'dmz' zone. But both these options would circumvent the firewall built into the router...

Why?

I use the dns servers from opendns + tranmission mac and transmission-daemon on my nas. No port forwarding activated on my router.
Transmission shows a red light stating that the ports are closed but it's torrenting down.
