I'm getting speeds of about 6kb/s in uTorrent. This is fine if I want to download over the course of a few nights () but I'd rather get some faster speeds. I mean, when I download directly with Firefox I get speeds of around 300kb/s.

It keeps telling me I have "no incoming connections," and that my port is not forwarded properly. I tried to forward the port but broke my internet (D, but it's fixed now. How do I SAFELY increase my speeds and forward my ports properly?

I'm running on Vista. Is the firewall any good? Am I better off just disabling it for better speeds?

EDIT: Oh yeah, I also have the Windows Firewall set to allow both uTorrent and the port uTorrent uses through, but still no increase in speed.
