Can't Seed/DL
« on: December 26, 2010, 07:18:38 PM »
I'm a power user

Using build 1.8.5 of utorrent

None of my torrents will Seed or download, I managed to get one torrent to connect to a single peer so it's downloading at 6kbps when my internet is 20mbps

Any idea what may be up?

Torrents from other trackers download and seed fine.

How about telling us what the tracker says...

I knew nothing of the outside world. I was just a frog in a well.

How do I do that? Just open utorrent and screenshot or is there more?

Thanks for replying.

... Just look very closely at your uTorrent GUI and you will know what to do. BTW we only really care about the status report. It's on the main window.

Seriously, please try to help yourself before you come asking for help. No one here is paid to help people who want hand-holding/spoon-feeding.

No.  Your screenshot doesn't show the tracker status message.  It does however show your tracker key, which you should probably change now.

How do I change it?

And where do I go to screencap my tracker status.

Sorry, I just don't know.

Go read the wiki.  Learn to help yourself instead of annoying others by asking for information that's easily found if you spent 2 minutes looking for it.

When someone says this:

... perhaps this is a keyword.
