Torrent won't start downloading and NO tests works. What to do?

[TorrentNoob251]

I have been searching the internet up and down for 3 days straight.

What do I do when the bar in the bottom of uTorrent 3.0 is red, and the tests won't work. It goes wrong no matter which 'location' I pick.

I live in Denmark, so Germany would be the obivious pick, but that don't work either.

What to do?

For speed test failure try changing your DNS settings to Comodo's Secure DNS servers. Comodo's DNS addresses can be found at http://www.comodo.com/secure-dns/. I also listed them below

Set your preferred DNS server to :

8.26.56.26

Set your Alternate DNS server to :

8.20.247.20

Thx for your reply.

I made the speedtest work by choosing Amserdam #1 and changing some stuff.

Now it is the second thing of the test which is wrong. It says that my NAT-PMP and UPnP isn't activitated and that I should change my settings. But when I check the settings, it says it is activated? What to do?

BTW, sometimes the speedtest doesn't work on Amsterdam #1 for no reason, and I still haven't been able to download any Torrents.

Are either enabled in your router?

Also, stop obsessing about the built-in speed test. Its success or failure has no bearing on your ability to download.
