Utorrent connecting to peers cyber ghost1/22/2024 Those advertisements had started with the latest u-Torrent version I had installed a number of months ago. Then I tried my other 2 computers (with multiple torrents), all with the same negative results.īut., one other thing I have noticed, is that I no longer get the "hot girly game" offers I used to get in the lower left corner (now just asks me to upgrade to "uTorrentPlus"), and under the top toolbar (now just asks me to get their "video converter"). When I got home and tried to finish the download on my laptop, is when I found that I could not download anything. It was downloading a small (800mb) movie file, but not as fast as it normally does from that location, but did make it to about 75%. I've been using this u-Torrent program VERY successfully and flawlessly for many YEARS now., and absolutely nothing was changed or added to my 3 computers, router or anything else.Īctually, it all started on the evening of February 10th, when I had my Win7Pro laptop at the local Elks club, as they've got much faster downloads speeds than I do at home. I'm running u-Torrent version 3.3.2 on 3 different computes, which 2 are running Windows 7 Pro (one being a laptop) and 1 running XP Pro, and all 3 computers started the same problems on the same day !! I've got what seems to be the same problem as "smalltalkdan", and it all started the exact same day (February 10th, 2014) !!ġ: None of my torrents (whether "magnet" or downloaded) will connect to peers (just says "Connecting to peers")Ģ: At the bottom of the program it says "DHT: Waiting to log in"ģ: Under the "Trackers" tab, the DHT says "waiting to announce"Ĥ: The "Peer Discovery" and "Peer Exchange" says "working"ĥ: All the other "trackers" say "Connection timed out"Īlso, when I "check for updates" (under the "help" menu) it says "Unable to contact u Torrent update server"īut., every time I run the "u Torrent set-up guide", and then run just the test for "network", I get the green check-mark, and it says "Port is open. If you can't, please refrain from making comments that don't lead to a solution. If you can help, it is VERY MUCH appreciated. (this is directed specifically to caiobaby, who seems to believe that this forum is only for people at the expert level.) Making me feel like an idiot, or that you know more than me, won't help - I *am* an idiot and you most assuredly do. Comments like "Check the trackers are all live for those jobs" will not help me solve the problem, since I neither know what that means nor now to do it. One further note/plea/request: I'm a long-time uTorrent user, but I'm not at all familiar with its internal workings. Deleting the torrent and downloading again doesn't seem to change anything. Eventually the problem resolves itself, but 'eventually' can be anywhere from 10 minutes to several hours. ![]() ***NOTHING*** has changed that is, I have no new hardware, haven't changed my firewall settings, my modem and router are the same, I'm downloading torrent flies from the same place (exclusively TVTorrents) and have installed no new software.Ĥ. Somewhere between one and all torrents get stuck with status "finding peers." Up until today it was usually just one, but today there were 4/4 stuck in this state.ģ. Primary symptom: I download some number of torrents and open them in uTorrent. ![]() Operating system is Win10 圆4.I know this has come up several times in the past, but it's now become an acute problem for me. This also happens if I don't have my VPN on at all. I DON'T have adblock activated on my VPN, but when I activate it same thing happens. It's just torrenting! Any ideas? If it helps I have an TP-Link Archer C20.Īnother thing is that Utorrent loads weirdly, no ads are shown and a blue loading disc shows up next to the cursor for a bit every now and then. ![]() I'm online, no problem getting to sites, no problems on my phone with wifi. Getting an orange triangle at the bottom corner that says No incoming connections, could indicate an issue with network configuration. I'm guessing it might be something with my router, it allows for UPnP, and it's enabled and if I log on to my router dash I can see utorrent listed there under UPnP. Network: Port not open (you are still able to download) Automatic port mapping is on.įirewall exceptions added, I've also tried shutting off both antivirus and firewall. Timed out waiting for message from server (i've tried all servers, same effect) (Note- at my old place with ADSL and another router I had 10mbps, still worked with torrents, it just takes a while). I have a fairly stable connection (fiber) at 30mbps up/down. I've tried files with sufficient seeders, but I can't get my utorrent (3.5.5) to move past Connecting to peers. I've tried downloading with my VPN turned off, no change. The weird thing is that I managed to download one file yesterday with no issues. I've got a new router and VPN (Surfshark) and I can't get torrenting to work.
