For bittorrent to work, you need to forward the necessary ports on the router that controls your Local Area Network. I believe this often defaults to TCP Port 4662. You'll also need to forward this port directly to your internal IP address on the network.
Freakitchen. PS: These instructions are based on my experiences with a home network, what you describe sounds like an office network for which the steps might be very different.

Just realised, I was wrong when I said port 4662, that's emules default. Most bittorrent trackers ive used default to 6881.

Your school may be blocking the port. If that's the case, we can't help you because it falls under security workarounds in the forum rules.
