RockyRook Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Hi! I used to send files between the two PCs that I own(located in different countries) using torrents. Few days ago it stopped working and all I get on the machine that is downloading the file is "Connecting to peers". Strangely, it is happening to the torrent that I started downloading few days ago, when I got through approximately half of it. The next day it just wouldn't connect. I am able to download torrents from public trackers like pirate bay, but not the ones that I create and share on the remote computer. I create the torrents the following way: tick the "Private torrent" and "Start seeding" boxes and specify the following trackers:http://www.sumotracker.com/announceudp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80/announceudp://tracker.publicbt.com:80/announce*http://open.tracker.thepiratebay.org/announcehttp://www.torrent-downloads.to:2710/announcehttp://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announceudp://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announceOn the PC that shares the file other torrents from public trackers have reasonable upload speed. So I can't think of anything else and had to ask for help. I'm sorry if this turns out to be a well known problem, but unfortunately I wasn't able to find anything on the webs. Thanks.

DreadWingKnight Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 So in short, you disable dht for stupid reasons on the torrent and you add trackers that haven't been around for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyRook Posted February 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 As for the trackers, I've just made a reinstall of uTorrent with all the settings cleared and that's the trackers it suggested to me by default: udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80/announceudp://tracker.publicbt.com:80/announceudp://tracker.ccc.de:80/announce I tried them, but still having the same issue. As for DHT - it is enabled on both uTorrent instances, if I understood you correctly. Disabling it also didn't help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 You misunderstood me. You private flagged the torrents. That turns DHT OFF for those torrents regardless of your own settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyRook Posted February 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Thanks. I tried again without Private and it still doesn't work.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
