Azureus NAT problem

[iBookG4user]

I'm having a NAT problem in Azureus. It doens't matter if the computer is directly connected to the router or wireless, or windows or Mac. I have a NETGEAR WGT624 v3 router, Verizon is my ISP (they only give dynamic IPs). I was thinking that if I could find a way to disable the router firewall then that would get rid of the problem. Any way to disable the firewall? And any other ideas?

BTW, when seeding I get green, it's only when downloading that I get yellow.

Just got back from school and when I was using bittorrent there, I get green. So anyone know what to do to solve this problem?

I've left it going for over 4 days and it still is yellow. When I'm at school, it takes about a minute to turn green, so I don't think that it will turn green if it hasn't after 4 days.

forward the ports...

Yea, go in to the routers software, and turn on port forwarding, then specify the port used by azureus...

I've already done that and it didn't help. and yes I did do it correctly.

In the Azureus Preferences, go to Tracker->Client and click "Auto-discover external IP address"

If you are still stumped, why not go to Azuerus' Wiki page? They give out extremely detailed guides on how to fix minor problems like that.
