In a nutshell (oh, spare me the nutpicking!):
NAT - If you're behind a router, it helps passes data back and forth. Without it, data coming your way would end up slamming into the router. Dead.
UPnP - Magic. Automatically configures forwarding of ports (only if your software supports it).
TCP & UDP - Two different methods of sending data around. You should check which your program uses, and if adding the forwarding manually, make sure you know which (or just add both on the same port for good measure).

As for the tracker problems, you shouldn't be getting any issues with it if you can browse websites - the BT tracker protocol runs on HTTP, for the most part. And since those trackers usually maintain good uptimes, you know whose fault it is..

I am just wondering anyone notice that P2P this week is getting sort of slow compare to last month?

I have like 600 seeds and the leech is only around 50-70 and most of the time i get around 80-100kbs using 1mbStreamyx,and now i am getting like 10-15kbs?

Did Streamyx start some ninja throttle on our P2P slowly?

Yes they did. So you need to use either torrentflux or VPN service

I have a vpn...bt how to enter in my torrent?? And even after reading ur posts, i still don't knw how to port forward

3rd day slow on bt, almost 0kb/s
before this always max speed

Pls do note p2p is being throttled by TM :-)

which vpn you're using? go for bolehvpn or MX510's vpn

using BIZ5 Unifi package..

was downloading using xunlei just now, speed was around 500~600kbps..
well that is really fast for me already. but after 5 minutes it dropped tremendously till 1~5kbps. WHYYYYY??

my guess is that it is being throttled.. so whats the workaround for this issue? VPN?

VPN or Torrentflux :-)

I've read about both..
Which one do you recommend for use?? I've tried VPN 20days from you, remember?? haha, is TorrentFlux better?

TM is throttling those who download loads of bandwidth more strictly.
I've been there done that. But it mostly affects p2p. Other than that, still fine.

i recently installed qvod on my newly formatted comp and some problem arises...pls help.

the qvodterminal.exe seems to encounter a problem every 5-10 mins and prompt me to send error report.
any solution to this??

Have a Question to ask.
I'm using uTorrent.
I want to ask how to allow your bitTorrent client to connect to all available seeds? Because mostly the torrents i download, the seeds connected are far less than the available seeds, for example, 56(340).
And when the seeds are <than certain numbers i cant even connect to the seeds. For e.g one of my download is 0(29) where there are 29 available seeds but i connected to none... the torrent just stopped.... Any help?

Guys,
recently I install Ares 2.1.7.3041
but, after a while I realized that my Ares is not connecting.
Is there any recommendation on how to fix this?
btw, I'm using broadband.
and my broadband doesn't block any sites as TM does.

Thanks.
