Absolut Posted November 20, 2007 Report Posted November 20, 2007 When I use uTorrent at home, it works perfectly...when I use it in university, there are no active connections, DHT tries to log in without much success and I really need some help here...someone told me that I might need to configure my proxy settings etc...is it true? If it is, please help me....Thanks
ajones81 Posted November 20, 2007 Report Posted November 20, 2007 Are you sure your university even allows torrenting? Most don't, and are known to be quite strict in this regard, so I advise you to check first. Also, they generally have firewall/proxy rules etc. set at their end that block BitTorrent connections and that you cannot change. If that's the case, then you're outta luck, sorry.
Absolut Posted November 20, 2007 Author Report Posted November 20, 2007 mmmhh.....well, i think your right...thanks anyways...!
fsmhm2 Posted November 20, 2007 Report Posted November 20, 2007 I have the same problem, except I am at home. Yesterday I couldnt get any incoming connections or DHT login. portforward.com says that the port is not forwarded, and I have the "random port" enabled as well as encryption. Essentially it just stopped taking incoming connections- it has been working fine for months.My ISP is ACSalascom, now part of AT&T. I have a Linksy's WRT54G wireless router and a Westell DSL modem. I have gone into the router to enable a static port and made uTorr use that port but with no sucess except to make all internet acess down. (I followed the portforward directions exactly...) I know the ISP has NOT blitzed my ports....Any ideas?
