greppson Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 i've read a couple hundred threads here today, just registered now cause i haven't found a solution for my problem.i started seeding this torrent earlier this morning:http://bt.etree.org/details.php?id=23305but i've only uploaded 3.09 MBs... which is weird. never had trouble with the site before, used torrentspy to create the torrent, did everything as i normally do, but NO one can seem to connect to me.i redid my randomized port, it's forwarded on my router.just finished another torrent on the same site, so i know i am connectable.i've tried messing with the "lazy" advanced setting and that hasn't done anything.i've got the most recent build (428), before that, earlier today, i had (402)... never had this issue before. no NAT or listening errors or download limit.checked the upload, it's capped at what my upload is for my host anyways(adelphia.net).using a netgear wgt624 v2 router.made sure the ports forwarded matched the device addressed in CMD IPCONFIG and on the router status page.there is one peer that connects, downloads maybe 5 kbs and then it seems is "booted" off. that's how i've uploaded the 3.09 MBs.i've really tried looking, but can't find any solution here.anyone got any idea what is going on? do i need to call my service?(seems to not be the case, since the other torrent today was working like normal---but only after about a 4 hour period of no one being able to connect.)thanks in advance.

Firon Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Adelphia blocks seeding in some areas, you should turn peer.lazy_bitfield back on and restart the client. It might work after that. If it doesn't, you may need to turn on Protocol Encryption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greppson Posted March 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Why would this just start as a problem now? It's never been a problem before...I have talked to the service provider before and they said they don't block BT at all.Weird. I'll give those a shot.Thanks.

DreadWingKnight Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 I have talked to the service provider before and they said they don't block BT at all.Service providers have been known to lie before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1c3d0g Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Unencrypted connections, which is most of the rest of the world, really. My advice: leave it ticked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
