Note: *** put in place of last 3 sections of my external (ISP supplied IP address)

To generate this instance that I copied and pasted above, I reset the bans on 20 currently seeding torrents to a private tracker.

Is this normal?

I've looked high and low online for an answer to this & all i was able to find was someone asking the same questions back in 2009 with no response.

Current setup

no software firewall windows or otherwise.

Windows 7 Professional

uTorrent currently has UPnP & NAT-PMP port mapping disabled

I'm using a DCHP reserved IP address from my Dlink DIR-815 router to keep it static

Port 61491 is forwarded correctly through the hardware firewall for this IP.

I have the D-Link game router. It is configured start with that IP address for the local network. It gets a different IP Address from the WAN (ISP). Then it either dynamically allocates IP Addresses based on the range specified for each computer on the local lan or you can assign a static IP. uTorrent automatically bans the IP of the PC it is running on - you do not download or seed to/from yourself. When you Reset Bans - uTorrent unbans the local IP address - then will re-ban it. So the message concerning your own IP address really does not mean anything.

Oh well - something like that.

Then you didn't look hard enough. It bans yourself to prevent you connecting back to yourself.
