bittorrent not working
 

so my bittorrent isnt working correctly, for some dumbass reason my modem drops the connection about 30sec after i start BT up. if i cycle the power on the modem it will connect, download for about 30 sec then drop again but i can surf the interweb for hours with BT off and everything is fine. is my isp doing this to me?

and your reward for help

Re: bittorrent not working
 

pics not loading, your ISP can block packets, but there is a way around it

Re: bittorrent not working
 

If he's using Charter they're not blocking P2P traffic.

Are you using a router or directly connected to the modem?

Re: bittorrent not working
 

no jago i have sbc dsl and i am connected directly to the modem, its ------- pissing me off. it just started all of a sudden since i started dl'in solidworks

Re: bittorrent not working
 

I would save teh torrent you want to download and just reinstall the bittorrent client. You ports may have gotten jacked up or something. Sometimes a reinstall can straighten it out.

Do you tinker with your router at all? like do you have certain ports forwarded or something?

Re: bittorrent not working
 

He just said he's not using a router so ports aren't the issue.

Re: bittorrent not working
 

well i did reinstall 5.0 then i upgraded to 6.0 when that didn't help, still hasn't changed

Re: bittorrent not working
 

Well i remeber using Kazaa back inthe bday and it would have issues with teh ports localy on your pc not the router. i should have been more clear, i ment reinstall to see if ports onteh PC would be reset but then asked about his router which would be differetn ports.

Are you using any sort of firewall or Peer gardian? has teh PC been scanned with adaware and or spybot that sort of stuff.

Bittorrent ran like crap on my computer. I switched to Utorrent and no problems since.

Re: bittorrent not working
 

wow utorrent is the exact same thing, they even use bittorrent's online port checking

Re: bittorrent not working
 

Runs good on my computer. It didn't like bittorent at all.

Re: bittorrent not working
 

holy ---- it is actually working
thanks man i owe you
utorrent ftw

also is there a way to get my dl from bittorent to resume on utorrent? i got about 8gigs of ---- done and that took a while.

Re: bittorrent not working
 

Are you downloading Mitchell OnDemand?

Re: bittorrent not working
 

no, are you infering becuase of the size?
i am dl'n solidworks, season 2 of prison break and season 3 of bsg

Re: bittorrent not working
 

I use Bit Comet and it works very well. I'll have to check utorrent out

Re: bittorrent not working
 

Azureus ftw

Re: bittorrent not working
 

Is that Peer 2 Peer like limewire?

Re: bittorrent not working
 

No, it's a bit torrent client.

Re: bittorrent not working
 

something weird, if i have utorrent and bittorrent open at the same time my internet doesnt crash. if i close utorrent, bam, 30sec later it drops the connection. i dont get it. also utorrent doesnt even have to be dl or ul anything just has to be open?
who ------- knows
