not enough info I'm afraid. Equipment, ISP and what you are trying to do.

I'd say he's trying to set up a bittorrent client.

Youre incoming tcp listen port is whatever you want it to be for that program. I suggest picking a random number somewhere over 46000. Then you need to follow one of the many thousand port forwarding guides on the internet to forward that port number to your pc.
