How do I set up torrent software with my router

I want to set up some torrent software to enable me to download things. I have a D-Link router and have installed Azureus Vuze on my pc. now i try to download something but nothing happens, i have explored the options in the software and pressed something called 'nat test' and i get something telling me about my ports. i presume they are not open??? but apparently the issue is wider with using a router.
how do i set it up to get things to download. Or is there a better client i can use other than this vuze.

All the big powers they've silenced me. So much for free speech and choice on this fundamental human right, and outing the liars.

Which torrent software?0

Utorrent is so much better than Azureus Vuze, much smaller in memory handling and less problems with setting up ports.0

We can't/won't help you here as the discussion of illegal activity isn't allowed.
I appreciate there are a few legitimate uses for the torrent system but 95% of users aren't asking for these now are they

and who made you judge and jury. I thought in the UK it was innocent until proven guilty. Anyway what better way to transfer larger files to many users at once?0 -
Does your router support UPnP? If so, enable it, and select the UPnP in Vuze (if it has it, I know uTorrent does). This will automatically sort out port forwarding for you, makes life a lot easier0

Well as this is one of the things you agreed to when you sgined up.
"Even though there are some legitimate uses there is a blanket ban on P2P topics. This is done to protect this site and its resources."

Yes, but posters aren't supposed to cause arguments about torrents.
