rathel Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 It can last anywhere between 5 minutes and 5 hours. I am able to get connected again when I go in to preferences then click the random port button.It worked flawlessly before I changed my router confg, and what I had before should've been worse then what I'm getting now, from what I understand. I was connected to a router bridged to another router that had the internet. But now I'm plugged directly into the router with the internet and now I'm getting all these problems. Why?

ciaobaby Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 now I'm plugged directly into the router with the internet and now I'm getting all these problems. Why?Probably because your router needs setting up properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get full connectivity green check mark and everything when I change ports, but then like I said, it loses it randomly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciaobaby Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 OK then . So you are trying to run a torrent client on a network using broadcast routing and wondering why packets are being dropped and/or connections lost by the client. Do yourself a favour and STOP being too lazy to forward TCP and UDP ports to the appropriate IP so things work correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
