    hi guys here is my question :

    i have a rule in LAN interface which gives my desktop pc anywhere access:

    ip:desktop || source port: || destination: || destination port:***

    the question is that although utorrent works and downloads fine, it shows that port is not forwarded.
    It works when i add a rule in NAT -> port forwarding.

    Shouldnt be working using just the firewall rule i have for my pc??

    thnx in advance

          Because he already discovered how it works. Re-read the first post in the thread.
