Bitcomet + Onebox

Peer to peer (or P2P) networks uses diverse connectivity between participants in a network and the cumulative bandwidth of network participants rather than conventional centralized resources where a relatively low number of servers provide the core value to a service or application. Such networks are useful for many purposes like sharing files!!!

One of my favorite P2P clients is Bitcomet, because it’s powerful, fast, very easy-to-use, and completely FREE. It contains many advanced features for BitTorrent download and extends its leading BitTorrent technology to HTTP/FTP to accelerate downloading up to 5 - 10 times faster.

So the easiest way to configure Bitcomet with your Onebox from Onemax, is as follows:

Login to your Onebox, make sure you are properly connected and launch the web browser. Type 192.168.1.1 as the URL. A password screen displays the default password is 1234 displays non-readable characters. Following screens displays to change your password click ignore, then click Go to Advanced setup

Once there you see the status screen, use this screen to look at status of the device, system resources, interfaces, etc.

Click Network in the upper left side of the screen. And finally NAT

Click Port Forwarding tab, make sure Default Server in Default Server Setup is 0.0.0.0 and in Port Forwarding let’s modify rule #1.

Rule setup:

  • Active check
  • Service Name: Torrent
  • Start Port: 6881
  • End Port: 6999
  • Server IP address: 192.168.1.33

This IP address is the default from the DHCP pool, make sure this is your computer’s IP address in case you have more than one computer connected to the Onebox.

onebox

Then download and install Bitcomet, and open Options. Go to Connection, and modify your listen port to let’s say 6999 click OK

Verify the status bar says WAN:190.52.226.75 this IP must be the IP address of the WAN interface of your Onebox.

Happy downloading!!!
