andyinkuwait Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hi Alla few days ago all my torrents suddenly showed up red in 1.8.2. All registerd as tracker was offline. I checked with the trackers and they are online.I am getting a green tick for network connection OK and the private tracker registers me as being connected but I can't download or seed.I tried turning off my firewall, disabling my virus checker (although these are not new)I can't isolate any action that caused this EXCEPT I downloaded 1.8.1 and reinstalled because my private tracker was not allowing me to use 1.8.2. All worked fine. A few days later the tracker accepted 1.8.2 so I uninstalled 1.8.1 and reinstalled 1.8.2 then the problem started.Can anyone help? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 As you wrote you have the green circile in uT, can you test with one of OO torrents: http://distribution.openoffice.org/p2p/Choose a random torrent like Windows/OO3.0.1/English and report here if the tracker is offline.

andyinkuwait Posted February 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Max upload rate 47Max download 0Global max number 15Max no of connected peers 10No upload slots 4Tick box use additional upload slotsOK it is currently reporting 'offline tracker' and the torrent is red but it is downloading the torrent. I stopped the other 17 seeding torrents to see if that would make a difference. So now I really don't understand what is happening. Any ideas?

Switeck Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Sometimes trackers are overloaded/crashed/offline...only if many trackers are offline at once would I worry. Peer Exchange and DHT can work on public torrents to find other peers and seeds even when the trackers are down.Is there any chance your ISP is crippling your line?(Done any GOOGLE searches, asked people locally, if the ISP throttles/disrupts BitTorrent traffic?)
