Does anybody know how to port forward with a smc barricade router?

I would like to get faster downloads because I am using overnet and getting like 3kbps downloads :angry: With dsl

Also...

1. Is port forwarding safe?
2. Can i just unplug my router, and have my modem directly plugged into my computer and get the same effects as port forwarding?

Thanks in advance for the help!!

the second question i can answer. i use to have a router but i took that down and use my modem and it work but i dont knw if it work for you. ;)
 
To get back to you guys on what happened when i just plugged my computer in without a router...

I was getting green light on Bittorrent.
I did not get the firewall notice on overnet lite either.
however my computer would restart automatically, it was with warning, i think it was a afraid of viruses.
