gophergun Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I add a torrent, and it gets the info from the tracker and everything, but doesn't actually connect to any seeds or peers until I restart uTorrent. "Don't start the download automatically" isn't checked either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Is your connection already overloaded with 20+ running torrents?Tried 1st and 2nd links in my signature?(You probably shouldn't use settings higher than 1 megabit/sec upload speed on ComCast.)

gophergun Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 No and yes, I'm using the settings in your signature. It's probably worth noting that everything worked fine in 1.8.2, the problems arose when I updated to 1.8.3. I don't think the upgrade changed any of the working settings before, either.

gophergun Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Um, not particularly, but I must admit I didn't understand a lot of it. Sorry :-X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Have you changed ANY advanced settings?If so, which and to what values? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gophergun Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 I haven't changed any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 If you have a bad/misconfigured software firewall, I guess that would explain your problem.Try removing any uTorrent entries in your software firewall/s. (AV often has one too now!)...And let them redetect uTorrent when you run uTorrent again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gophergun Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 I'm sorry to say that I don't have a software firewall, IIRC AVG doesn't have one and the Windows one is turned off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Is your modem and/or router listed at portforward.com ROUTERS section?http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Follow the guides for it for uTorrent. Please give links to it and a description on what/where you have problems, if any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gophergun Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Right, that seems to have worked. I'm not sure whether it was forwarding the ports properly or disabling UPnP, but it's now working properly again. Thank you so much for your patience. =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Good to hear...hopefully that's +1 good seeder/peer added to whatever BitTorrent swarms you're on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
