deknor Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Hello everyone.I got a weird problem. First of all, I use a D-Link 624+ and set a static IP and forwarded my port. But here is the problem. I get the green light on utorrent. It says the network is OK. But if I test my port using the utorrent port checker, it sometimes says the port is open and sometimes it says the port does not appear to be open. If I reload that page, it will keep moving from open to not open.I also have a problem I never seen before. Once I open utorrent and start my torrents, it seems to work fine. But then, after some time (like an hour), all arrows turn red and every tracker from every torrent reports offine (timed out).Anyone have any idea what might be happening?Thanks in advance!

Ultima Posted September 29, 2006 Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 Tried disabling UPnP and DHT? Maybe your router's being stupid (not uncommon for a D-Link) due to being overloaded or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deknor Posted September 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 It is disabled, yeah.Which router do you guys recommend? I am starting to think the problem is indeed my router. I didn't change anything else to cause this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted September 29, 2006 Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 Linksys WRT54G (pre-v5) and WRT54GL (any version) have been fairly well-received around here, provided you use a custom firmware rather than the crap one Linksys provides (preferrably Thibor's version of the firmware).Have you tried using the connection without the router, but by connecting your computer directly to the modem?
