ksketch Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 I think this is a new one (I searched!)As of 2 days ago, my utorrent was downloading with no problems whatsoever. I have not changed any settings with utorrent, my router, or internet connection since that time.Today I realized that torrents I have been tryng to get for the last 24 hours haven't been downloading at all. I can't connect to peers or seeds, though I get a display of how many there are. I see over 800s; 5000p for 1 torrent alone yet I can't connect to anyone and my download stays at 0.0. I've tried 5 different trackers(2 private) no success. I just loaded one of the torrents in another client and it works just fine. Fiddled in utorrent around enabling/disabling UPnP and DHT with no success. Any help would be appreciated.

DreadWingKnight Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Do openoffice torrents exhibit the same behavior? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksketch Posted March 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 No. Just gave 3 Openoffice ones a try and they all worked normally while the other torrents continue to not work. WTF?EDIT - I failed to mention that I am getting the Yield symbol at the bottom, instead of the normal green icon. I assume that's only due to me no having any connections, as the other client has green for NAT and Ratio settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crofty Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 I have this same problem also. Everything was working fine a few days ago, then all of a sudden I couldn't connect with anyone. No changes were made at all, it happened completely on its own. Incidentally the desktop PC still works as normal, with the same settings, its only this laptop which is having trouble.I tried downloading OpenOffice... again, thats a no go.Any bright ideas?

Switeck Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 The yellow 'yield' symbol can also occur because of overloads -- particularly of the router or modem, by high half open connection rates or high max connections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Yellow is just an indeterminate state, although if you -never- see green, that's bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmodine Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 It seems like this is a common problem the last day or so.I am having the same type of issues. I have made no settings changes but though I see literally hundreds of seeds, I only connect to a few and my download speeds have gone from 800K to around 100 max.I too have the yellow yield sign but when I check the port with the checker it tells me that my port is being forwarded properly.I went ahead and changed the port to a lower number port and changed it in my firebox firewall as well and still the same issue.I can connect...its just dog slow now. Also, my speedtest results were at 5500 during the testing period.UPDATE: now I am seeing the green sign and my downloads are going a little faster however, though I am connecting to seeds, I'm not connecting to the peers.
