Can't dcc

Router Config : First and foremost when forwarding ports you should consider setting up Static Routing, else your efforts will only be temporary. Depending on the router brand ie. Linksys; fowarded ports are only allowed to be mapped to ONE address so forwarding a broad range isn't a good idea.
Ports for Clients:
113 = IDENT
1024-5000 DCC mirc default which should be changed to not more than twice the # of DCC connections you intend to have at any one time. Just take care that the range of ports don't over lap with the range of ports forwarded to the BOT.
For Example: If you edit mirc dcc port range to 4990-5000 you must forward same in router to the lan address hosting mirc client. Then set bot dcc port range to say 4979-4989 and forward same in router to lan address hosting the bot.
Other issues:
Some IRCD administrators configure their server to only allow dcc connections between mirc or bots that have correct "Local Info" entries in the Local Host and IP Address areas. Some don't.

Also note that for dcc-GET and incoming chat-requests you only need to nat internal traffic to internet.
Everything that you initiate need these ports (usually 1024-5000) to be forwarded to the box the eggdrop runs at.

you need to map DCC ports on your router, whatever ports your irc/bot is set to use for DCC ports are the ports you want to foward, for example 1024-5000 routed to 192.168.1.100, or whatever your internal ip is, refer to your routers docs for more info on port fowarding.
