trackers offline (timed out). uTorrent forum search was no help

<< < (2/4) > >>

Nikaido:
I did, for four days, but some of the torrents I have only have seeds on the trackers. At least the really important one has seeds on [Peer Exchange]. I need that one for college. Also I don't use private trackers, at least not now, maybe in the near future.

oh and Arveene, your advice didn't work.  :(

Lupin:
A few suggestions:

1. Reset your modem.
2. Use openDNS servers for your DNS.
3. Are you using any firewalls? Make sure uTorrent is allowed to connect to internet
4. Are you using any software like Peer Guardian that blocks connections to certain IP addresses? Make sure bakabt (as well as other trackers) aren't blocked.

Does that mean your problems are solved by switching client? These trackers work fine in frostwire but not utorrent? Offline implies destination reachable, but you could also check a trace route to host (perhaps your isp has a routing problem).

The only other thing I can think of is to proxy your tracker communications temporarily to see if that halps.

No using another client didn't work and I tried two (bitcomet & bittorrent). And I meant that regular frostwire downloads still work. Plus the uTorrent peer exchange still works.

1.Tried that 5 times already.
2. Don't know how to use an openDNS server, maybe I should learn.
3. If you read my first post you would've seen that I had already checked to see if that was the case.
4. I don't have anything like that on my comp.

XP home SP3, and the only change that I made was limit the max upload rate from 60kB/s to 40kB/s. But after re-installation of uTorrent I left it with the default settings for a 640k connection type which is 60kB/s.

Tried that, didn't work.

I still don't understand why Bakabt's tracker is the only one that works. It doesn't make any sense that that one would work, but others don't.

here's 2 print-screens of my uTorrent trackers for 2 different torrents:
