ICE-X Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 I had to downgrade from uTorrent 1.7.7 to 1.6.1 because my private tracker wouldn't allow 1.7.7 anymore. Now I can keep ports forwarded. Every time my modem restarts it's ip changes so the ports won't stay open. Any ideas on how to fix this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 The current version is 1.8. If the tracker doesn't allow 1.7.7 but allows 1.6.1 you should think about asking them why they don't allow the current version, and also think about why they are allowing a version which has vulnerabilities which can crash your client.Your problem doesn't track. If you only have a modem there is no need for forwarding ports, or the included auto-map will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICE-X Posted April 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 I PMed one of the Mods about it.If I don't need to forward ports what could be causing the red icon in the status bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Running an old version because of a site means you get support at that site.http://utorrent.com/faq/network/#faq5 explains the status bar icons. If you mouseover them they also give descriptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICE-X Posted April 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 I turned off my firewall and checked for any other running clients, didn't do a thing. Any other suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 The myth of 1.6.1 is enduring with some tracker admins... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICE-X Posted April 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Oh yeah, I forgot, I still download at max speed, it's just that the red icon bothers me.EDIT: I installed the latest uTorrent and the tracker is accepting it, a mod can close this subject.
