Anthraxx Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 I have XP sp2, no firewall active, i have adsl 2+ that operates at 700k, I've forwarded the port, and I don't think that my ISP maliciously shapes me.Is there a precedent for having neither a NAT Error or Network OK showing? Cos thats what I got. I just folowed the steps at portforward.com and it did get rid of my NAT Error, but theres no Network OK, and all over the site I cant find any reference to this, it seems it should be one or the other. Also since I forwarded the port, none of my torrents seem to start for ages. The speeds better than before, but it just wont start them for ages. thanks for reading my post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthraxx Posted November 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 actualy, i had another look and it's not getting any speed on anything up or down. it can detect the swarms tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdArmor Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 make sure you don't use ports 6881 - 6889 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthraxx Posted November 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 im not. the port im using is between 32000-33000. and when the nat error comes back i get speed again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abbad0n Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 We all have to sleep sometime. Check that the bloody windows firewall didn't spontaneously turn on. And since your on SP2 ...Network OptionsRandomize port each time µTorrent starts > unmarkedEnable UPnP port mapping > marked (if unmarked) / unmarked (if marked)Advanced Optionsnet.max_halfopen > 8peer.lazy_bitfield > trueIf those don't work:http://www.utorrent.com/faq.php#Does_.C2.B5Torrent_work_well_on_Windows_XP_SP2_systems_with_an_unpatched_TCPIP.sys.3F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthraxx Posted November 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 bah! sleep! never did nothing for nobodyi changed the UPnP to unmarked, the peer.lazy_bitfield to true, everything else was how you said. it doesnt seem to have had any imediate effect but i'll post back after school tommorow.thanks dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaSteve Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 i see where ur coming from anthrax. my torrents seem to be taking alot longer to connect and my network ok takes a fair while to showup also. it may be todo with the dht being implemented. either way it still works for me. also make sure that you have forwarded the same port for both tcp and udp.

Anthraxx Posted November 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 tcp and udp? I was only forwarding one port as udp.I noticed that once my torrents start, the NAT Error appears, but before that theirs neither NAT Error or Network OK.Interestingly, I was d/ling diggnation episode 20, and with a NAT Error I was getting 255 kbps down pretty much constantly.

Firon Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 UDP is only used for DHT, nothing more. TCP is used for everything else. You need to forward it to get any incoming connections.µTorrent doesn't display Network OK or NAT Error until a torrent actually starts, since it doesn't know if the forwarding works until then.

Anthraxx Posted November 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 ooooh, right then. How very handy. On portforward.com, there wasn't a tut for µTorrent, so I think I looked at the eDonkey one or somesuch nonsense, and that said to use UDP, so I assumed that it would work with uTorrent too.
