Enter the port you want DC++ to use into the TCP Port and the UDP Port boxes in the settings. You can enter whatever port you like into those boxes, but a port between 10000-60000 will most likely not be blocked by your ISP.
Then , portforward those specific 2 ports you have picked from the router to your computer.
The port 80 is usually used for http protocol ( pick up a port number higher than 1024, to make sure )
