您是否使用BitTorrent客户端从 Internet 下载开源软件或其他类型的内容？您是否拥有华硕(ASUS)无线路由器，并希望您的P2P传输每次都能顺畅运行？如果您这样做了，华硕(ASUS)路由器上的固件可以轻松设置必要的端口转发规则，让BitTorrent应用程序无故障运行。以下是设置方法：
注意：(NOTE:)本教程适用于华硕(ASUS)无线路由器和华硕 Mesh Wi-Fi(ASUS Mesh Wi-Fi)系统。只要您的固件是最新的，我们分享的说明也应该适用于您的设备。
步骤 1.设置 Windows Defender 防火墙(Set Windows Defender Firewall)以允许您的BitTorrent客户端连接到 Internet
大多数用于P2P 传输的 BitTorrent 应用程序都会为(P2P transfers)Windows Defender 防火墙(Windows Defender Firewall)创建自己的规则，以便它们可以连接到 Internet。但是，如果您的BitTorrent客户端未被自动允许与 Internet 通信，请将Windows Defender 防火墙(Windows Defender Firewall)设置为允许访问(Allow access)。
以下是允许应用程序通过 Windows Defender 防火墙的(allow apps through the Windows Defender Firewall)方法。
第 2 步：查看（或配置）您的BitTorrent客户端使用的端口
为确保您的ASUS路由器允许您的BitTorrent客户端正常运行，您需要知道用于下载种子的端口。打开您的BitTorrent客户端并检查其连接设置。为了帮助您，让我们看看在qBitttorent（我们最喜欢的此类应用程序）中这是如何完成的：转到Tools，然后单击或点击Options。
在“选项(Options)”窗口中，单击或点击“连接(Connection)”，然后查看下方突出显示的侦听端口。将其写在一张纸上或将其更改为您希望用于BitTorrent连接的另一个端口。
无论您做什么，最好不要随机使用端口，因为在您的华硕(ASUS)路由器上维护端口转发设置更加困难。完成后，不要忘记按OK。
许多用户更喜欢使用另一个应用程序来下载种子：BitTorrent。如果您也使用此应用程序，请转到Options，然后转到Preferences。
在“首选项”(Preferences)窗口中，单击或点击“连接(Connections)”以查看右侧的侦听端口。您可能想像我们下面那样自己设置一个自定义端口，或者记下BitTorrent使用的默认端口。完成后，按OK。
步骤 3. 访问华硕(ASUS)路由器上的端口转发设置
是时候配置您的华硕(ASUS)路由器或网状 Wi-Fi 系统了。为此，请打开您最喜欢的网络浏览器并访问 router.asus.com 或路由器的IP 地址(IP address)- 它可以是 192.168.50.1 或 192.168.1.1。如果您不知道路由器的 IP 地址，本指南可以提供帮助：5 种查找无线路由器本地 IP 地址的方法(5 Ways to find the local IP address of your wireless router)。输入管理路由器的用户名和密码，然后按登录(Sign In)。
注意：(NOTE:)如果您在登录华硕(ASUS)路由器的其他方式方面需要帮助，请阅读：如何登录华硕路由器：四种工作方式。(How to login to your ASUS router: Four ways that work.)
然后，在左侧边栏选择WAN，进入右侧的"Virtual Server/Port Forwarding"选项卡，打开“启用端口转发”("Enable Port Forwarding")开关。
步骤 4. 在您的华硕(ASUS)路由器上设置端口转发规则
您的华硕(ASUS)无线路由器需要一些时间来启用端口转发。完成后，按添加配置文件(Add profile)按钮。如果您没有调整您的BitTorrent客户端的设置，请在“著名游戏列表”("Famous Game List")中选择BitTorrent。
您的华硕无线路由器会使用许多(ASUS)BitTorrent客户端使用的端口自动填充必要的字段。如果“外部端口(External Port)”字段中列出的端口不是您的客户端应用程序使用的端口，请手动输入它正在使用的端口，然后按OK。
如果您在BitTorrent应用程序上手动设置了端口，最好自己也输入必要的详细信息。使用P2P(P2P)、 torrent 或BitTorrent等暗示性名称完成服务名称(Service Name)。然后，在协议(Protocol)字段中选择BOTH（TPC 和 UDP）。在外部端口(External Port)字段中，输入您的BitTorrent应用程序使用的端口。在“内部 IP 地址”("Internal IP address")字段中，选择您的设备或手动输入其 IP 地址。完成后，按OK应用您的设置。
当您想要下载种子时，对您网络中的所有计算机和设备执行此操作是一个好主意。要添加它们，请单击或点击添加配置文件(Add profile)，然后像在第一台计算机上一样填写必要的数据。您会看到添加到下面列表中的所有端口转发配置文件。
如果您创建的端口转发规则不正确，请单击它的编辑(Edit)按钮，然后更改您的设置。如果规则不再有效，请按删除(Delete)按钮并将其从华硕(ASUS)路由器中删除。完成设置后，关闭用于访问华硕(ASUS)路由器设置的浏览器选项卡。
您是否在(Did)华硕(ASUS)路由器上设置了用于下载种子的端口转发规则？
许多人将种子与恶意内容或内容盗窃联系起来。但是，使用P2P(P2P)应用程序有许多合法用途，包括下载暴雪(Blizzard)发行的游戏或开源软件。在结束本教程之前，请告诉我们本指南是否帮助您正确设置华硕(ASUS)无线路由器。您有任何问题或疑问吗？在下面的评论中分享(Share)它们。
How to configure your ASUS router for BitTorrent (P2P) transfers
Do you use a BitTorrent client to download open-source software or other types of content from the internet? Do you have an ASUS wireless router, and wаnt yоur P2P transfers to work smoothly every timе? If you do, the firmware on your ΑSUS routеr makes it easy to set the necessary port forwarding rules, so that ΒitTorrent apps work trouble-free. Here's how to set things uр:
NOTE: This tutorial applies both to ASUS wireless routers and ASUS Mesh Wi-Fi systems. As long as your firmware is up-to-date, the instructions we share should apply to your device too.
Step 1. Set Windows Defender Firewall to allow your BitTorrent client to connect to the internet
Most BitTorrent apps used for P2P transfers create their own rules for Windows Defender Firewall so that they can connect to the internet. However, if your BitTorrent client is not automatically allowed to communicate with the internet, set Windows Defender Firewall to Allow access.
Here is how to allow apps through the Windows Defender Firewall.
Step 2. See (or configure) the port used by your BitTorrent client
To make sure that your ASUS router allows your BitTorrent client to run without problems, you need to know the port used for downloading torrents. Open your BitTorrent client and check its connection settings. To help you out, let's see how this is done in qBitttorent (our favorite app of this type): go to Tools, and then click or tap Options.
In the Options window, click or tap Connection, and then see the listening port highlighted below. Write it down on a piece of paper or change it to another port that you wish to use for BitTorrent connections.
Whatever you do, it is a good idea not to randomize the port used, because it is harder to maintain the port-forwarding settings on your ASUS router. When done, don't forget to press OK.
Many users prefer to use another app for downloading torrents: BitTorrent. If you use this app too, go to Options, and then to Preferences.
In the Preferences window, click or tap Connections to see the listening port on the right. You may want to set a custom port yourself like we did below, or write down the default port used by BitTorrent. When you're done, press OK.
Step 3. Access the port forwarding settings on your ASUS router
It is time to configure your ASUS router or mesh Wi-Fi system. To do that, open your favorite web browser and go to router.asus.com or to the IP address of the router - it can be something like 192.168.50.1 or 192.168.1.1. If you don't know the IP address of your router, this guide can help: 5 Ways to find the local IP address of your wireless router. Enter the username and password for administering the router, and press Sign In.
NOTE: If you need help with other ways to log in to your ASUS router, read: How to login to your ASUS router: Four ways that work.
Then, on the left sidebar, choose WAN, go to the "Virtual Server/Port Forwarding" tab on the right, and turn on the "Enable Port Forwarding" switch.
Step 4. Set the port forwarding rules on your ASUS router
Your ASUS wireless router takes some time to enable port forwarding. After it finishes, press the Add profile button. If you did not fiddle with your BitTorrent client's settings, in the "Famous Game List" choose BitTorrent.
Your ASUS wireless router automatically populates the necessary fields with the ports used by many BitTorrent clients. If the ports listed in the External Port field are not those used by your client app, enter the port(s) that it is using, manually, and press OK.
If you have manually set the port on your BitTorrent app, it is preferable to also enter the necessary details yourself. Complete the Service Name with a suggestive name like P2P, torrents, or BitTorrent. Then, in the Protocol field choose BOTH (TPC and UDP). In the External Port field, type the port used by your BitTorrent app. In the "Internal IP address" field, choose your device or manually enter its IP address. When done, press OK to apply your settings.
It is an excellent idea to do this for all the computers and devices in your network when you want to download torrents. To add them, click or tap Add profile, and complete the necessary data as you did for your first computer. You see all the port forwarding profiles added to the list below.
If a port forwarding rule you created is incorrect, click the Edit button for it, and change your settings. If a rule is no longer valid, press the Delete button for it and remove it from your ASUS router. When you're done setting things up, close the browser tab used for accessing your ASUS router settings.
Did you set the port forwarding rules on your ASUS router for downloading torrents?
Many people associate torrents with malicious content or with content theft. However, there are many legal uses for using P2P apps, including downloading games like those distributed by Blizzard or open-source software.
