Ultima Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Are you sure you forwarded everything properly? Set up a static IP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegrimreaper Posted August 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 I do a port scan from a web site and it said that the ports where open. i have a static ip and have foreward the right ports. i tryed other torrent programs but they did not work either.i am runing Symantec AntiVirus corp 10 could that be doing it.

Ultima Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Yes. Figure out how to forward ports through it (I don't use it, so I can't help you there). If you can't, then try uninstalling it to see if it is the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 Yes, it slows your downloads, but that doesn't necessarily mean your port is forwarded properly... what color is the light in the status bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 Do you have to set your upload speed DOWN to 6 KB/sec or UP to 6 KB/sec ...or get slowed downloads?If 6 KB/sec upload speed is the fastest you can run, you may have a very slow line with lots of overload problems -- and probably need to reduce your max connections at once as well as half-open limit.If you have to raise upload speed to 6 KB/sec, then things may be working as designed -- as BitTorrent can ONLY function as a whole if everyone shares. The sum of EVERYONE's download is actually less than the sum of everyone's upload -- so if people upload slowly, where are the fast download speeds supposed to come from?
