How to set Transmission to a static outgoing port range?

[theseum]

I'm trying to set up the RST blocking Sandvine workaround so that I can hopefully get better speeds from comcast users and I'm following the guide at http://wakarimasu.googlepages.com/macosx. At step 8 the guide says to:

Configure your torrent client to use a static outgoing (source) port or an outgoing port range. This port range should start with your bittorrent port (e.g. 55259), and extend to your bittorrent port+100. (e.g. 55359)

How do I do this with transmisison on a mac? Thanks!

The guide says 'static or range'. T has a static port, which is already set and can be found/changed in the preferences.

hmm.. T sets incoming (listen) port in preferences..
the quide says about outgoing (source) port..

Different terminology, same thing.

sry Waldorf,

can't agree..

in context of TCP/IP protocol terminology the source and the destination ports aren't the same thing..

perhaps it's just mis-spelled/confused in that guide..

I believe incoming port is for people connecting to you (your upload), and outgoing port is for you connecting to peers (your download).
Transmission's preferences only let you set your incoming port. I too am looking for a way to set the outgoing port to either a single port or a range, in order to use traffic shaping, but I haven't yet found a solution.
