You need to portforward some ports to your computer via the router so that DC++ can work in active mode. More info on FAQ :

Check this guide gussy, http://www.portforward.com/

Gives you a step by step guide for individual routers and dc++. In terms of what port to use you can use any you want, most over a 1000 aren't in use.

Can you help with this problem?
