I have been using bittorrent to download for a while and i stopped downloading stuff for a few weeks. When i started to download again it wont download, it connects to the peers but the download speed stays at 0. Is it possible that a windows update or something similar could have caused me some problems please help im stuck.

Hi, I think the only way you will get a response to this is if you provide a bit more info. Are you using a router for example,, which client are you using (Azureus etc).

I get all windows updates (as I use a legit copy of windows) and it has never affected my downloads. It's got to be either the settings in the sotware you are using,,,settings in your modem / router,,,or that your isp has blocked the use of bit torrent.

Hi

The modem is the thing that commects to the outside world and brings in your internet connection through phoneline or cable,,,the router is the thing that allows moer than one computer to access it.
You may not have a router,,,or you might have an 'all in one' modem and router combined.

post back with some make and model numbners from anything you have.

This will probably confuse you even more but it really isn't that complicated. Your Speedtouch contains a firewall so you have to forward your ip address and a port range within it. But, if your address changes each time you reboot, any port forwarding is useless and you'll need a static address that doesn't change. Go to Start>Run, type in cmd or command and select ok. In the next black box, type in ipconfig/all, select enter and you'll see some info including your ip address. Make a note of it and type exit and select enter or just close and upon restarting after 10 minutes, check it again and if your ip address is different, it will have to be static. Here are a couple of links to look over in the meantime: http://portforward.com/networking/staticip.htm and http://portforward.com/english/routers/p.../BitTorrent.htm

I wouldn't edit anything you haven't added yourself; the guide says to create a new game and application. I am not sure why you would already see bittorrent. I'm sorry but I don't understand; have you been able to log in to your router and where do you see user-defined or microsof-8ed087? It isn't your ip address but your Speedtouch address you type into your browser. Should be 192.168.1.254. and use IE, not Firefox, etc.

Ok, I see it, shouldn't post when I'm half asleep. Edit to a range over 10,000, say 10,000 - 10,010 but more than 1 download open at once is sharing your bandwidth. User-defined would be your ip address and disable UPnP but make a note of any changes you make in case you have to change it back. Also, a dynamic ip address as opposed to a static ip address will eventually change, so keep an eye on it. Mine lasted over a year and then started changing weekly making port forwarding useless until I corrected it. 6881 - 6889 are bittorrent ports but many ISP's block them.

Can you change things back if you enable UPnP or create a new application with the original settings? Extended Security shows as disabled in the guide so I wouldn't touch it. If you have to reset your Speedtouch back to its original settings, there should be a small hole in the back. I just use a paper clip and hold it in for 10 - 15 seconds. Maybe, try to delete in safe mode or even a new client, utorrent is very light on resources.
