Note

You must follow the local network access set up page (Setting up for access on a local network) before setting up access from the Internet.

Warning

Running the uTorrent Web UI from a computer that is using a non-fixed Internet connection (e.g. 3G USB devices, Sierra Wireless, other mobile based Internet, etc) is not supported on a local network, nor is it supported over the Internet. Normal WiFi (802.11) that connects back to a fixed (e.g. fiber, DSL or cable) Internet connection will work without any trouble. If you do not have a fixed Internet connection on the computer the uTorrent desktop program is running, you cannot use the Web UI, and thus you cannot use this Torrent Remote app.

Connecting to your uTorrent with the Torrent Remote app over the Internet is a little bit more involved than only accessing it from a local area network (LAN), so you should be familiar with how to forward ports on your router. Due to the amount of different routers out there, we cannot cover that in this documentation.
