Shahrose Khan Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 just wait. My u torrent went down 4 days ago and it automatically came back online yesterday!I think your problem is very same to mine. do you see a yellow triangle at the bottom of torrent window with an exclamatory mark? when that mark changes and its green then you can continue downloading.

Ultima Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 The network status light has very little to do with tracker issues ;o@Callumgw: Check the first link in my signature for internet interruption stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callumgw Posted December 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Hi all, thanks for the suggestions. I had read Ulitmas suggestions prio to posting and had no joy with them. I could even get OpenOffice to come down. I think I've tracked it to the hardware firewall in by BIllion 7404VGPM (FW 5.08a). When the firewall is turned off, everthing starts, turn it on and the things stop. The same behaviour happens when I use BitComet. I have restricted uTorrent to a single port and opened that in the firewall on both UDP and TCP, but no luck still get blocked.I have noted a couple of people having the same problem on Whirlpool and they ended by disabling the firewall and relying on the NAT.So short of disabling the firewall, anymore suggestions?

Callumgw Posted December 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Reading through the posts it seems a few people are having issues with uTorrent and maybe theirs are with the hardware firewalls of new modems....C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 You don't need the second firewall from the Billion router.NAT is plenty for a firewall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
