Unable to get external IP

[chevluvin]

hi

running windows 2000 service pack 4 with august rollup (sp4.5)

had 1.61 as it worked with UPnP (2000 has no UPnP)

(one motorola modem and a wrt54g (with dd-wrt) the motorola goes into bridge mode)

I upgraded to 1.8 RC4 and now have this error message in my log

[2008-07-21 15:54:46] UPnP: Could not map UPnP Port on this pass, retrying.

[2008-07-21 15:54:49] UPnP: Unable to get external IP.

[2008-07-21 15:54:54] NAT-PMP: Unable to map port with NAT-PMP.

the "UPnP: Unable to get external IP" is what I am mostly worried about

as I cannot get xp (on my second partition) to unlock the "half-open connections" causing the dreded tcpip error.

my windows 2000 with sp4.5 has no limits that I know of.

thanks

thanks for the quick reply firon

but if you would expand on you message of "ignore it"

a config issue?

is this a utorrent problem?

a windows 2000 compatability problem?

a windows xp compatability problem?

or ??????

and rc5 still shows this

as 1.8rc4 and up change the settings.dat

I have an error message about UPnP when I try to revert back to 1.61

(guessing that I need to delete settings dat and settings old)

Ignore it.

[chevluvin]

never mind

last time I was here was 6-2006

where I had to find my own help (took me 3+ weeks to solve my problem (rc 1.5))

after some helpfull advice from firon last time too.

but I will be back in 2010~ when the next beta/rc is out and will see how far firon has evolved by then.

I dont think this should have been moved from the 1.8beta forum as this is an error message.

but firon is the admin

The message means exactly what it says. UPnP didn't tell utorrent your external IP.

I say ignore it because it's nothing you need to worry about. It's not an error, just information.
