torahtrance Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 Hey I am in Israel using "Orange" for my internet provider. They have their own router believe it or not, produced locally called "gigaset 604". It has a lot of features built in, supports upnp, voip built in, etc etc... Problem is on a private tracker unless I myself create a torrent and am the only seeder, it seems I am never getting any uploads! Its horrible! I leave my client opens for days at a time, I see 40 seeds and 40 peers, and I barely get any action at all!I just installed version 2.03 beta to see any differenceFollowed the setup guide, tweaked some settings (internet here is 13mbit/1mbit) - unchecked managed bandwidth When I download, its easy for me to get 1.2mb/s btw... No problem downloading. Windows 7 x64I dont understand why its impossible for me upload please help me squash this...Also enabled encryption .. tried changing ports as well and restaring utorrent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 Problem is on a private tracker unless I myself create a torrent and am the only seeder, it seems I am never getting any uploads!The problem is that you're on a private tracker. It doesn't matter what you try to do, private trackers are chronically overseeded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torahtrance Posted July 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 what does this mean chronically overseeded?? if there are a lot of seeds, I should at least get some of the action... but I get virtually none! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 if there are a lot of seeds, I should at least get some of the action... but I get virtually none!If you're trying to upload and there are a lot of seeds, you will be lucky to get ANY action, let alone enough to maintain ratio.

Switeck Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 Many times, the reported "peers" are already seeds by the time you try them....Or they at least have already reached their max connections -- either globally or per-torrent.If you never get the green light (unfirewalled icon) in uTorrent, things are even worse -- even peers that might be able to connect to you won't.

torahtrance Posted July 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 I do have the green icon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 The green light could (stupidly!) mean Teredo/IPv6 or uTP made an incoming connection...not that you're really unfirewalled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torahtrance Posted July 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 You could be right, but I did both the utorrent test and checked my router settings and it seems everything is forwarded.I think the problem is over-seeding as you said, even though to me it seems strange. Oh well! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
