What do the Network Status lights mean (, , )?

The green light means all is OK (ports are forwarded and you are receiving incoming connections)

The yellow light means that you have no current incoming connections. If this never turns green, this means that your port is not forwarded. The best way to check is with the µTorrent port checker, found in the Speed Guide. If the port checker says your port is open, then everything is most likely fine.

The red light means that µTorrent was unable to bind a listening socket. Most likely, this means a firewall is blocking it. It's also possible that another torrent client is using this port, which will require you to change ports, or not run both clients at the same time.

Keep in mind that Leopard has a firewall, which needs attention, too :) Of course, beside your manually installed software and your router settings. It is yellow, for example, if everything is portforwarded correctly and you have some incoming connections, but your OS X firewall doesn`t allow any incoming connections for uTorrent.
