utlord Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 I have a netopia wireless router, went into the router settings, added the port, said it was validated on my router settings, yet i still get that error message in utorrent. Any suggestions? By the way, the message is green for thirty or so seconds, then turns yellow, does it all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 And about your firewall on your computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paintball9 Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 Do you have any torrents running? How many peers on those torrents?What about firewall settings?Does speed test (ctrl + G) report that the port is open under network?Have you turned off uPnP and NAT (in general Preferences) because you've port-forwarded manually?

utlord Posted August 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 Sorry lol, should have mentioned... Yes i have my firewall accepting utorrent and added the current port im using. ( does avg interfere with utorrent?)Currently have one torrent dl'ing its says its connected to 6(988) peers, and yes upnp is unchecked and so is nat...

utlord Posted August 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 bandwidth checks ok, the network says neither nat or upnp is enabled. red X... also automatic port mapping is unchecked, is that ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paintball9 Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 Something failed in your port-forward. Do you have a modem? If so you will need to forward from that to the router, before it can get forwarded to you. The alternative would be running the modem in bridge-mode and using the router for authentication.

utlord Posted August 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 no, its i router that is wireless its says its a motorola, but its really a netopia. And like i said, i went into the router settings and added the port, could it be a bad port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utlord Posted August 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 my router allows me to enable uPnP, could i do this and enable it in utorrent? could it solve my problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 Yes, Enabling UPnP in both locations COULD solve your problem assuming there are no other devices or software packages interfering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utlord Posted August 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 ok, so that solved the issue with my port not being open. now my speeds are extremely slow, when it was yellow, they hovered around 100kb, now its around 10kb... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted August 28, 2010 Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 Disable UPnP again and see if that causes speed increases. If so, your router's UPnP support simply cannot handle lots of connections at once, like uTorrent creates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
