Sonicboom Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 I've noticed that recently I cannot seed torrents at all. The torrents I have tested had at least 10 peers, but none would be able to connect to me. The counter will go up to 3 sometimes, but then instantly drop back down to zero; as if it's rejecting the connections. I've tried with multiple trackers, one private and the rest public. I've also disabled the speed limiting upon reaching a seeding goal but it had no effect.Downloads still run fine, I reached 1MB/s on a torrent recently with no troubles at all.What could be causing this?

Sonicboom Posted July 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 General/Info tab with the torrent selected.What do you have for X of Y (Z in swarm) for seeds and peers?Seeds: 0 connected (98 in swarm)Peers: 3 of 20 connected (15 in swarm)It's strange.. now there's some connected. Previously the peers connected would be jumping up and down, with no one actually receiving the file.Upon trying a new torrent, the same happens again, this one withPeers: 0 of 7 connected (9 in swarm)It seems there's just a large delay from beginning to seed the torrent and from it actually allowing peers to connect..

DreadWingKnight Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 First one looks massively overseeded, so good luck there.Is the second one any better for ratio of seeds to peers? (use the In swarm numbers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonicboom Posted July 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Oh, guess I didn't really consider the Seed/Peer ratio.. Second one is 66 peers and 9 seeds. That isn't that large of a ratio, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 High seed counts compared to the peers indicates that you will have a hard time due to overseeding.If the peers vastly outnumber the seeds you may need to look elsewhere (such as provider interference and internet security software/hardware misconfiguration) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
