sirald66 Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 I want to filter peers by country, so I can engage either national or international regions.For example, I am in the United States and want to block national peers, so I'm engaged with international peers.

ciaobaby Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Add ALL the IP ranges for the USA to ipfilter.dat, but it WILL be a hell of a long list. [== very slow on loading]Read the manual (settings directory) for the howto.And have fun with the several million IPv6 ranges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirald66 Posted November 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Either through DNS record and/or geolocation, uTorrent identifies most peer addresses by their country. I'm thinking filter/disconnects could be based on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 The RDNS resolver is a seperate mechanism in the GUI for display purposes only, and is based on user supplied data. See http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=2070 IP blocking for the uploader/downloader daemon/application is done using ipfilter.dat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirald66 Posted November 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Still a lot of ranges, but wonder if I could block the bulk by only doing major telecom / cable ISPs. I'd just like the US (where I'm based) to be the minority, not the majority of connections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
