Hello!
I was trying to setup a firewall rule to block common torrent ports.
Source: LAN - 192.168.0.3
Destination: WAN - ALL WAN IP
Action: Deny
Schedule: Always
Port: 8000 - 65535
Please help me how to block all WAN IP - it always says invalid start IP address
Thanks.

You need to reserve the IP address of the PC that is doing the torrenting then input that into the FROM and TO IP address range. example 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.100

Thanks for the reply. I have no problem with the SRC(LAN). My problem is how will I block the LAN IP so it will not be able to connect to many DEST(WAN) IP sources.
SRC(LAN)
FROM 192.168.0.100
TO 192.168.0.100
DEST(WAN)
FROM ? << what should I put in here
TO ? << and here
PORTS
FROM 8000
TO 65535

try 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.254

Thanks for the hint! =) I ended up doing this setup to hopefully block normal users from using torrent. I hope this will help others too.
