DaShizNit609 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 I just recently downloaded this Utorrent and it seems to work pretty well. I have it all configured correctly but i get the yellow icon that says i may have connection problems or whatever. I Don't have a router basically just plugged in from the wall to modem to computer. My download speeds aren't really bad but sometimes stuff never ends up starting. Like i'll start a torrent and it will open and just sit there at 0% and never start. Then when i close Utorrent and reopen Utorrent it starts almost instantly. I think something is wrong but i have no idea how to fix it. any ideas?

Ultima Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 What modem are you using? What about firewall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaShizNit609 Posted January 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 after a few minutes it started downloading but not very fast (15kB/s) and now that i look at it.. it has stopped downloading totally. I just ran a speed test at dslreports.com to get an approx speed of my connection. Download after a few tries came up to be 8158 kbps upload 637kbps.I think there is something wrong but i have no idea what it is. I dont have a router/firewall i use windows xp pro have sp2 installed and am up to date on all drivers. I dont understand why i have the yellow icon instead of the green one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaShizNit609 Posted January 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 I just noticed this too. When i select that random port in the speed guide section when i hit "test if port is forwarded properly" it says the port does not appear to be opened. How do i go about opening it when i dont have a firewall/router of any sort? i already checked that port forwarding site and i didn't notice anything for my modem (Dlink DCM-202) could this be my issue?
