Torrent download stuck because of hash check keeps failing

[frankbkk]

Hi,

I am downloading a rather large torrent (nearly 6Gb) and it is stuck at 90.8%

The reason is that from this point on, every hash check fails and even I am downloading at something like 50 kb/sec my download does not progress as all pieces fails on the hash check.

µtorrent also keeps on banning some IPs - I guess because of the hash check problem.

As an addictional information, 50Kb/sec seems way too high and that torrent used to be around 20Kb/sec since i started it. I have a slow ADSL connection and 50Kb per sec is the full bandwith between me and my ISP.

So is there anybody who can help me on how to solve this issue?

Thanks a lot in advance for any information/help

Frank

let me guess if you have no dlink, you are seeing quite a few IP addresses 38.100.x.y and 208.10.x.y in your peer list.

if yes, search around a bit what it means and for ipfilter.dat ;-)

Hi,

My modem-router is Huawei and it always used to work so i guess i don't have the DMZ problem of D-Link routers.

I created a ipfilter.dat file with the following config:

38.100.0.0-38.100.255.255

208.10.0.0-208.10.255.255

It does not seem to fix the problem. I've looked in my peer list and all IPs seem pretty random, I cannot group them into something like A.B.x.y or anything like that....

Or should i keep adding those individual IPs manually?

And thanks for your precious help!
