    I've been having trouble using torrents for a while now, whenever i try and use one, nothing happens, the download and upload speeds just remain at zero. I think this problem started when my mothers boss installed a new wireless modem onto my computer, and i think that it is using my normal modem to get access. I've tried simply unplugging the wireless, but this causes my normal modem to stop working.

    To anyone that knows, could this be the problem? How would i be able to fix it without taking out the wireless?

    Sounds like it might also have a built-in router of sorts. Have you tried setting up port forwarding?
