mesleepnow Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 No torrent software ever works for me. I've installed the latest version of uTorrent in the hope that it will be different, but alas. All torrents just go red virtually straight away. I realise that a firewall may be a problem. I have Windows Firewall on, but uTorrent is an exception, and also I told it to make the port in options>preferences>network settings an exception as well, but still no luck.Can anybody help me. I really want this to get working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 Do you use a router? If so, have you set up the port forwarding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 But you didn't answer the first question ;PDo you have a router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mesleepnow Posted October 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 I believe so. I didn't set up the broadband personally, but yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mesleepnow Posted October 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 My router isn't in the list. Well, similar ones are, but in the advanced options for the router, a load of options are missing. It's asking me to go to "virtual server configuration", which is where I would add the ports, but that just doesnt exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 Hm, I should have asked this before, but... what router do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
