peking4 Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I am currently in university with a pretty fast internet connection.up until a couple of weeks, torrents were working fine. but, for the past couple of weeks, i am having timeout issues with http trackers.I use private trackers mostly. so, i switched to SSL on the tracker and it does the trick but only a select few trackers support SSL.I was wondering if there was another workaround for this.On the other hand, i downloaded a .torrent file from a public site, all the http trackers are in a timeout state whereas udp trackers are working fine.Is this symptomatic of a network configuration issue or the network admin using tools to block ports which trackers try to open to initiate communication.Any ideas and suggestions??

peking4 Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Well there's your problem.I'm not a noob asking for ways to bypass university's restrictions. I'm pretty comfortable using VPN's and seedboxes from time to time. I'm posting here because i am able to get udp tracker support but not http support which is often the other way round. I was wondering if it could be a network configuration issue or is it just my network admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
