put it through spyware last night, done and dusted.  
the d/l speeds keep flutuating. anything from 2b/s to 15kb/s  
still shit though.

Should have a sufficent guide for your router   I have set up loads of networks and I thought it was quite easy. If you don't open the correct ports you will get shit download speeds yes, you need a trigger ports and your public ports. If your using azureus open ports 50410 for trigger port and open public ports 47000 - around 50900. check this port with the configuration wizard to make sure you arn't affected by NAT.

Unless you're using a very old version of Azureus, you only need to open/forward port 6881 now...

Also a lot of ISPs block port 6881 (bastards). Try moving your BT client and port forward to something more random (>1024 usually a good idea too as some ISPs block privileged ports).
