Maz4PJ Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Hi,I've been using Utorrent since forever and it's always worked fine with my IP and had all the ports forwarded correctly. But now its giving me the exclamation and when I check my ports it says...Checking port 30092 on 92.3.7.111...Error! Port 30092 does not appear to be open.I know "92.3.7.111" is my internet IP, and not my usual LAN IP. Utorrent used to always check my LAN ip and now suddenly its checking the Internet IP.Is there anything I can do to get the ports to forward correctly through the internet IP? Or is it something my ISP might have done suddenly making it not work? The router i use is Thompson Speedtouch 576.Any help would really be appreciated!NEVERMIND! I FIXED IT!

Switeck Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Are you on Carphone Warehouse Broadband Services or Tiscali?If so, it seems they cripple uTorrent/BitTorrent traffic in some way:http://www.azureuswiki.com/index.php/Bad_ISPs#United_KingdomHave you tried my speed guide settings?

Firon Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Every port tester checks your WAN IP. They have, the LAN IP is just that--local. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maz4PJ Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 It used to check with my LAN im sure, my 192.168... ip, but now its started to check my WAN. But its okay its fixed now, thanks anyway. I added my WAN under the Bittorrent "IP/Hostname to report to tracker" and it went green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 There's no way for a port tester to check your LAN IP. It only works with WAN.And adding your IP in the report to tracker function won't do a single thing to turn your network status green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maz4PJ Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Okay, well im not sure what happened then, but after i did that it turned green. So im happy anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
