Port Forwarding

The other day I decided to speed up my downloads by Port forwarding my modem (DSL_504T).
The thing is when I decided to run or start up the port forwarding software, mid way through I thought the web browser had crashed so I closed it down. When I opened my browser and entered my IP address it no longer comes up with the DSL page, it just shows up with "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading." Then under it The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again."
I would really like to know how to fix this, if at all possible.

Re: Port Forwarding

There is no speed advantage in standard downloads with any forwarded ports that I know of. What are you downloading with?

Re: Port Forwarding

I'm using torrent (I don't trust Limewire).
