Firon Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 What does the port tester say?Also, the LAN connection speed is not the same as your internet speed.Try a torrent from here. http://distribution.openoffice.org/p2p/
problem Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Posted June 2, 2008 I am using randomised port of 41166 and when i used the port tester it says nothing. When i tried torrent from above link it does not work.
Firon Posted June 2, 2008 Report Posted June 2, 2008 Go run a speed test, 'cause I'm sure that's not your connection speed. In fact, read this and read it thoroughly. http://www.utorrent.com/setup_guide.php
mrvoltaire Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 I have a similar, but slightly different problem. My icon is always yellow (no incoming connections), but I have great download speeds. I'm pretty sure that my port forwarding is correct (on one of the private trackers that I use a lot you can go to a page with a torrent and it will tell you which users are seeds/peers and whether they are "connectable" or not. I'm always listed as connectable.While everything seems to be working fine, I keep thinking that the icon used to be green and should be green. What else do I need to check?ThanksFurther, I only ever seems to see the flags U D X H E. I assume the one I'd see that would mark me as accepting incoming connections is I.I'm wondering if it's not that I'm not connectable, but rather everyone who connects to me is doing it through Peer Exchange or DHT. Maybe there is no need for an I type connection? Sorry if that's complete hooey, I'm not up on how this all works.
