Mercma Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 I'm getting the red circled exclamation that says a firewall/router are making me unconnectable. I have forwarded my port using portforward.com. In the past, it worked great, but one day just stopped working. When I changed ports the same thing happened, it worked then eventually stopped. Now I can't get it to forward correctly at al.I am running no firewall other than the Windows SP2, and it is set to allow Utorrent. I am the computer to which the LAN modem is connected, if that makes a difference somewhere. Thanks in advance for any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 Did you set up a static IP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 Temoprary download/upload overloads can cause that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercma Posted September 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 "Did you set up a static IP?"Yes. "Temoprary download/upload overloads can cause that too."This could be it, what does this mean? (I am getting red again) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 Try lowering your maximum number of connections to maybe 100, and net.max_halfopen connections in Advanced Preferences. And make sure you're not uploading too quickly (run the Speed Guide properly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max was 150, changed to 100.net.max_halfopen is set to 8. is that ok?I don't know how to "run the Speed Guide properly" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 Properly = by instruction You have to select the correct upload speed in kilobits per second (which is different from kilobytes per second). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
