watnoto Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I've downloaded/seeded hundreds of torrents in last years. Example case: This time I'm trying to download a Nav**** Report Viewer (dated Feb. 2012) torrent (TPB). It has:DHT: (seeds 0, peers 5)Local Peers Discovery (seeds 0, peers 0)Peer Exchange (seed 0, peers 0)http exodus desync com :6969 (seeds 2, peers 1)udp fr33domtracker h33t com :3310 (seeds 1, peers 1)udp tracker istole it :80 (seeds 4, peers 1)udp tracker openbittorrent com :80 (seeds 4, peers 1)udp tracker publicbt com :80 (seeds 3, peers 1)Seeds: 0 of 0 connected (4 in swarm)Peers: 0 of 8 connected (1 in swarm)It has been ~4 hours, and I cannot download even a single bit., though it has 4 seeders. (No other torrent is active)And it's always like that with other torrents when no seeders in DHT I always cannot download data.I have no problem at all with other torrents when it has one or more seeders in DHT. ----------In another side, when seeding (after finish downloading a torrent) I'm always not tracked by DHT, but tracked by trackers.Said that before I seed, a torrent has 4 seeders in DHT, and 8 seeders in a http/udp tracker. After I finish download it, then I seed, number of seeders in http/udp tracker is changed to 9 (adding me). But, number of seeders in DHT always remains 4 (not adding me). ---------So, when downloading I must have seeder(s) in DHT or fail. But, when uploading (seeding) DHT does not count me, only http/udp trackers. I can seed (upload) with no DHT, but I cannot download with no seeders in DHT. When downloading, seeders in http/udp trackers are not connected to me.But, when seeding, http/udp trackers count me and I can seed/upload. --------In Preferences | BitTorrent: All are checked except "Limit local peer bandwidth". Protocol encryption: Outgoing = Enabled.In Windows Firewall, uTorrent exception is added. In Comodo Firewall, uTorrent is set as Trusted Application (Allow all Incoming and Outgoing Requests).I have no firewall in my free Avira antivirus.I use a mobile broadband (CDMA / EvDO Rev A) modem / ISP for Internet connection, no router is used. I use USB modem dongle directly connected to laptop. Looks like it has ISP limitation with port. (My IP address is dynamic IP) In uTorrent Setup Guide, it always get "Results; Port is not open (you are still able to download)." Though, with healthy torrents I have no problem when downloading and seeding, (only have downloading problem when no seeders in DHT).------------Questions:(1) Why I cannot download when no seeders in DHT, though there are seeders in http/udp trackers?Is there any tweak I can do in uTorrent to overcome this problem?(2) Why DHT does not count me when I'm seeding?(3) When I want to use "Preferences | BitTorrent | IP/HostName to report to tracker", which IP address should I fill? --From the web's whatismyipaddress I opened in browser, my IP address is 114.79.0.* --But from ipconfig, my PPP adapter's IP address is 10.163.*.* , with default gateway is also 10.163.*.* --Still the same connection, when I connected to IRC, using whois command I see my IP address is 114.79.1.* and it will be different address again in another IRC server. (I've asked about this "many IP addresses on a single connection" in a local forum, and they said it's typical to CDMA / EvDO mobile connection.)So, which one? --How to find out what my IP address is actually used by torrent trackers? Is there any utility/script/software I can use?Please help, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 --But from ipconfig, my PPP adapter's IP address is 10.163.*.* , with default gateway is also 10.163.*.* Permanently firewalled, most likely a property of your connection.
