oxygenuk Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 hi the deal is im downloading a torrent from a private tracker and it keeps getting problems and im pretty sure its utorrenti had a few problems with tracker status, first off it said the tracker was offline, then it said something about a host, then finally its saying 'connection limit exceeded: you may only leech from 1 location at a time', now the problem there is that i have have 1 torrent running in utorrent and nothing else related to torrentsthem 3 errors have appeared seperately, for instance when it was tracker was offline i closed the client then opened it again and got a new error message, the problem is i still have the last error message and nothing seems to be working in terms of me fixin itand im also assuming these problems can affect my download speed? im still getting dl speed but its not very fastso i hope this problem is fixed or i get a good reply or ill need to find another client i think which i dont want to have to do tbh.thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boo Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 I recommend you have it turned off for Private tracker,because if the admins get annoyed, they might ban you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudhurler Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 If you want the DHT turned off for good just close µtorrent and go to the folder where utorrent stores configuration files and torrents (usually documents and settings\administrator\application data\utorrent on WinXP) and delete dht.dat and dht.dat.old. (these are generated files so µtorrent will create them again if you turn the dht back on).Then restart µtorrent and enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 This is a problem with the tracker not getting the "stopped" event from the client properly.It happens regardless of public or private trackers. It's just more noticable on private trackers.DHT has no bearing on this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
