I have a problem configuring gufw. I open ports on it, but when i test in deluge it shows as closed. Any help on setting up the firewall would be greatly appreciated. This is the output I get on the firewall in terminal:

I also want to be able to use the firewall with linuxdc, so I need other ports open as well.

This is connected to the firewall. Because when I turn off the firewall, the port is open. So this is not a problem with my modem.

Do I need the firewall? The broadband modem has a hardware firewall.

Update: Forgot to add. When my firewall is inactive, it closes ports after a time. So when I use linuxdc, I have to flush iptabels and activating it again. Is this supposed to do this when the firewall is deactivated?

Update again: All my ports are closed now, flushing the iptable does not work anymore. I have uninstalled gufw, but still all my ports are closed. And to say it again, this has nothing to do with my broadband modem since it worked when I used windows 7.

I need help to open the ports.
