Something is wrong with my utorrent and I haven't the slightest reason why.

[image loading]


I have been downloading a recent game of the proleague and it has taken me about 6 days to download 35mb of it. I have a max kilobyte speed of 10. Help! Also all my torrents stop at 99.99% too which is really gay.

I don't know whats wrong with my ports(if that is the problem). I can play starcraft fine and tried to forward the port I use for utorrent, 19179, but it just says that it didn't forward correctly but I can still play starcraft with hosting and obs.

My internet speed is fine. I can play any online games without lag and other stuff like downloading from youtube works. Could someone help me out please? This is really killing me and I have tried just about everything I could think of. Thanks

Note: Used google so.....

also, you're using a beta client. What operating system, system specs, etc.

try to change your listening port to some other number .. like 40,000 something or 50,000 something. forward a range of that port + 3 . say you choose 52,352 as your listening port. forward ports 52,352 to 52,355. make sure your windows firewall allows utorrent connection too. thats pretty much all i can think of. change your ports often when you see problems...move around. also, try using UPNP instead of choosing a listening port and make sure the UPNP framework is allowed by your firewall.

it could also be your ISP fuckin with you. in canada they throttle us to 30k/s for most of the day. ive never heard about the 99% thing. thats really weird.

It didn't work. I do use UPNP but I don't get how it works with the router I use. The router I have is a Linksys WRT310

try using something else like bitlord to figure out if it's utorrent or something else

UPNP is just an option in utorrent. you dont have to forward any ports with it since it automatic. just make sure you enabled UPNP in utorrent and make sure your firewall allows it.

if not, try to use many different ports like 47,235 or 32,239 etc...use a couple of them and each time forward the ports like i specified above. if that doesnt work...it could just be a matter of time. a few times my utorrent , or other p2p's were just blocked. i went to change a bunch of things. but nothing worked. then i just waited a few days without changing anything and somehow the problem was solved. -.-V but if you do make modifications and you choose to instead give up and just wait, make sure to revert your settings to default, or whatever they were at when you were downloading fine. if after a few days it's still fucked, just post your problem on utorrent forums or call your ISP

also, try the stable version 1.8.2 the 1.8.3 beta might be the problem. or just use a different client like bitcomet or something.

Set µtorrent to randomize the port every time it starts up, seems to work well for me.

Make sure you're forwarding the ports to the right address... if there's multiple computers on the network you have to specify which ports to forward.

Either that or you could DMZ your comp when you're downloading, but if you do you better have a firewall because your comps exposed.

The 99.9% thing is probably just bad luck. It could be a fake file though because most ipod software is over ~900 kB. If it's an executable, I would double-check the source before running it.

Also, your download speed depends on your peers' upload speeds, so the problem may not be on your end if you experience slow downloads.

I use a firewall, I make sure my files aren't fake, and I can get a decent internet speed for about 5 minutes before it returns to its slowness. Then I have to restart it to put the speed back into place :/

Could be your isp hurting your transfer rate becuase you have too many connections open. What are your connection settings?

And just to be clear, you're complaining about problems with the beta client? (I understand that it ran well before, but non beta > beta when you're troubleshooting problems for fun)

This used to happen to me for like 3/4s of my files when I used bitcomet...but switching to utorrent solved that problem. I have no idea what caused it, and I have no idea how to fix it either...I hope you find a resolution.

His problem is that torrents just dont finish...they stop at 99.9%, but still show up as DL'ing, yet it never completes. Force re-checking and hash checking doesn't do anything.

"Disk overloaded 100%" probably isn't a good thing.

Quit hiding your porn.

But really, as everyone has said, beta + weird quirks + overloaded disk = not good.

Your port isn't forwarded correctly. You should have a green check mark at the bottom, not a yellow exclamation point.

Do you know how to forward a port? Log into your router and make an entry that tells traffic on a certain port to be forwarded to your PC's ip address. To get your PC's ip address, open a command prompt and type ipconfig.

Its also possible that the .01 % is just some text file that the host took out and therfore the torrent didnt finish. You should still be able to play any video files with VLC no matter how incomplete they are.

btw OP, ive always wondered wtf ur name says or means or whatever. I never bother to read it and just think its rassenilator.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)
