kaysettes Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I posted this on the Help branch of the Torrent page, but I just want to make sure the right people see this: I'm back after a vacation from bit torrent and apparently lots has changed. I guess VC got a new tracker and maybe it's just because of the recent crash but it looks as if the only torrent options are for Gameboys, and there aren't any. On another bad note, I'm getting in trouble with other trackers because I'm not seeding. I still use Azureus and I leave it on over night but to no avail. Is there something I'm not doing? One more, I have also been trouble downloading any torrents. It says . Is that due to not sharing or something else? Any help to any of these problems would be appreciated. Thanks!

Nowhereman65 Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 (edited) I also use azureus and it also said the port was blacklisted all you have to do is go to options and on the first options page it will show "6881" just change that to a different port number you can use anywhere from 49152 - 65535 and it should work fine.

Analogman Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I've been using that number for months with no problems. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kaysettes Posted February 23, 2006 Author Share Posted February 23, 2006 Thanks for the speedy responses guys! I've been getting it heaps of trouble with some other trackers on that blacklisting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good Luck I tried using a lot of those ports but it said NAT error. What now? I've been told I need to set my wireless into Bridge Mode. Anybody have any idea on how to do that on an Airport?

Nowhereman65 Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 If your trying to do that at an airport with their wireless connection theyprobably have a firewall set up so you won't be able to download, you have to disable the firewall for it to work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kaysettes Posted February 24, 2006 Author Share Posted February 24, 2006 No, not at an airport. The wireless router for Macs is called an Airport. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
