Your correct with the firewall removal process. However, I think you were doing port triggering instead of port forwarding. When you are in the advanced tab of the router page, you should have gone to "Firewall" on the left hand side. Then you should have looked at the example I gave you and filled in the blanks accordingly. If you did that, you should be fine. I think that you were in "Virtual Server" instead of "Firewall." Also, you can port trigger 6969 if you want, that is the tracker port for Bittorrent. Hope I could help.
