musele Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Hi.I am a student at a university. Our network uses Novell Border Manager and proxy.We are given a static IP adress (mine is 192.168.10.20), and we have to access the net through proxy server 192.168.0.201 port 8080, and provide a username and password.The raw speed of my connection is good (1200kbps+), however when I try to use uTorrrent, the icon is yellow, and the speed is <20kbps.How can i get a green icon, and how can i setup port forwarding when i cannot access any router?Help much appreciated.

GTHK Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 How can i get a green icon, and how can i setup port forwarding when i cannot access any router?No. Uni networks usually aren't a good choice. http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 Since you can't access the router that's not yours, you can't do port forwarding and you won't get a green icon.The download/upload speeds you're getting will quite likely be be poor, but not AS poor as you're getting...so quite likely they are throttling/disrupting BitTorrent traffic further.There is not much you can do, besides seeking other access methods. (other ISPs, something other than BitTorrent) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
