Ultima Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 What is the availability of the torrent, and how many seeds and peers are supposed to be in the swarm? How many hashfails do you have for that torrent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastercaesar Posted December 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 There are:0 Seeds - 513 PeersAnd, I don't know where is the "availability" for this torrent and I think the Hashfails are 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 The availability column. If it's not there, right click the column headers and select it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 Then there's not much you can do other than hope someone will come back, ask for a reseed from wherever you got the torrent from and hope, or just give up and move to another torrent.

mastercaesar Posted December 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 ok, I will try!!!Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilA Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 I also have a torrent which gave up on 98.9%. It seems no peers had much more than that. One had 99.1 but I couldn't get it. There were 2 incomplete songs but neither would play at all, as if there was nothing there. Usually the downloaded parts will play.Should I just forget about it?What's stranger is that I only requested part of the torrent. It seems that seeders must have suddenly pulled out.

DreadWingKnight Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 bowiebolan, your issue is different.http://utorrent.com/faq.php#I_get_tons_of_hashfails_on_my_torrents_and_the_torrent_never_finishes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowiebolan Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 I don't have a D-link router, or any other router with game mode DMZ.I have never had a problem like this before, this is the first time.(I have d/l a lot and for many years)Of course I've been stuck at 99% before,(no seeders), but this is the first time when there's lots of seeders and I am connected to them too.

DreadWingKnight Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 The number of hashfails tells me that there's something in the way that's actively interfering with the safe download of the final piece.Modems, Routers, Network Cards, Ram, Software FirewallsAll can be the cause.Do you have a lot of reported bans in your logger tab?

bowiebolan Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Yep, lots of bans. What does that mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Are a lot of the addresses confined to the same x.x.* or x.* blocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowiebolan Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 You mean the same ip-address? And the same pieces that get the failed hash check?If so yes. I see some of the same addresses gets banned again and again.And it's the same 3 pieces that fails again and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 It's possible there are some anti-p2p peers on the torrent.If you wait it out, you should be able to complete eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowiebolan Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Ok, thanks for the help.But what about the bans, I see I can reset bans, should I do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 No. You want to leave the banned peers banned or else they'll waste even more of your bandwidth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
