Anna 9Born Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 L.S.I noticed this a little while back; Maybe some of you have noticed it. I tried searching the forums but couldnt find any topics on the matter.The thing is, when a tracker goes offline (for example maintenance) or becomes unreachable due to 403 and the download goes "red"; uTorrent 1.8 also removes all the seed/leechers it was connected to instantly. Why does it do this? Download times are longer when uTorrent refuses to download/upload. And i am using open trackers mostly.I had to switch back to 1.6.1 for this reason. In this version there is no problem with that scenario. Is there any chance this will be fixed soon? Or is there another solution?PsAnna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 I have trackers go offline all the time and still maintain links to peers/seeds.But I'm using v1.8.3 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna 9Born Posted May 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 No internet security software active on the pc i'm using atm. But therein lies not the problem.I did a test with both 1.6.1 and 1.8.2 by replacing the working tracker with a tracker that's offline. While utorrent 1.6 cant find any new peers (becaus there arent any), it does not remove the peers it already has a connection with. However, utorrent 1.8 cant find new peers but it also removes the peers it already has a connection with. And this is not improvement over the older version in my humble opinion.

moogly Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 I'm using 1.8.2 and I never noticed that, with public or private trackers. Peers stay connected during a long time before vanishing (if the tracker stays broken). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Unless you're talking about removes (peers from the cache--the numbers you see in ()) I have no idea what you're talking about. Could you explain it differently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
