kekarot Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 i am either getting the yellow triangle with the exclamation mark or the red cross. no incoming connections or firewall/router is limiting traffic. i tried to find the solution but i couldn't. so please help me. bandwidth is not maxing out even though there are many seeders. 100 megabits per second [down and up] i don't have a router. a cable is plugged into the back of my computer at the ethernet port. someone please help me.

DreadWingKnight Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 From a command prompt run "ipconfig" and tell me what the first two blocks of your ipv4 address are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 You are actually behind a router even if you don't have access to one. RFC1918 defines address ranges that are ALWAYS behind routers, and 10.x.x.x addresses are included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 That won't actually help you at all. The box outside your house or something at your internet provider is basically preventing you from receiving incoming connections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 There is no other option available and getting pro won't help on this front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is you need to get a Proxy setting or VPN and reset your router to get DCHP from ISP to allow for proper connections and 100mbps is good and to think that is slow is short sightness here. All this will be something you must do yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this will be something you must do yourself. at long last, i guess there is some hope for me. i thank you very much for your post. i am more than willing to do what is necessary. it is just that, i have absolutely no idea about getting a proxy setting or getting a VPN and resetting the router to get DCHP from ISP. as you may have read in my previous post i don't have a router in my house. there is a box outside my house. a wire comes from that box and plugs into the back of my cpu. it terminates with a RJ45 connection. my previous ISP provided DSL broadband. i had a belkin wifi router which had an RJ11 input. but my new ISP is providing fiber connection. so instead of the RJ11, i get the RJ45. i am thinking of buying a new router which takes RJ45 as input as i need wifi internet for my laptop. can you please guide my in setting up this proxy setting or vpn. if you could just tell me how to do it, i will do it. which do you think is better proxy setting or vpn. i occasionally use hide my ass to open some blocked websites and i have briefly used the trial version of hotspot shields. that is all i know when it comes to proxy and vpn. also i don't think that 100mbps is slow. it is absolutely incredible. i think you misinterpreted my post from earlier. please help me.

PiusX Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Beyond utorrent and what was just said that is something you must do by search the internet they can give you more info on Proxy and VPN help. We can only help with utorrent issues not help with Proxy or VPN setting that is something if you search the internet you will find more information on to help you with those but this doesn't guarantee that doing this will work either if your ISP is aggressive in blocking torrent usage.
