Hi gang...sorry...I know, it's been discussed a thousand times...but i've got this new problem, and just can't seem to fix it... :(
Well, for quite a while now I had no problems with utorrent, then, a few days ago, my internet provider had a small crash, I had to reset my dsl modem, and forgot all about that i'd have to redo it again, with port forwarding etc. Well, I tried, all of the last days, tried all, but to no avail..
I followed this guide:
http://www.portforward.com/english/route...ME/Utorrent.htm
But first I forwarded a port. Did that by going to the command port, wrote these numbers down:
IP addy: 192.168.1.2
Subnetmask: 255.255.255.248
Default gateway: 192.168.1.1
DNS server: 192.168.1.1
I used this guide:
http://corz.org/comms/hardware/router/static.ip.address.php
and then had the following values:
Use the following IP address:
IP number: 192.168.1.3
subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
default gateway: 192.168.1.1
use the following dns server addresses:
prefered dns server: 192.168.1.1
alternate..........: 212.159.11.150
After having done that, I went to my modem/router, did all the steps accordingly to this guide:
http://www.portforward.com/english/route...ME/Utorrent.htm
and had this in the end:
Now, I went to utorrent, went to the connections and named the port: 22500.
No green light...
what to do??
thanks everbody..

Try disabling UPnP at options>preferences>connection. I'd also doublecheck my port in utorrent and my IP address at Command Prompt just in case.

Hi again, the UPnP was already disabled (as are all the other 'listening port' boxes), the port in utorrent is 22500, the same I set my modem/router to:
and this here is my ipconfig/all screen:
what am I doing wrong?
thanks. :)

What about a firewall, make sure utorrent is an exception in any you use including Windows. Is that a modem/router combo, if not, check at PortForward for your modem in case it contains a firewall.

That list doesn't show them all, what is your ISP, someone may know. Have you set a static ip address if you're using a router? Have you checked at PortForward in case your modem needs forwarding too? Just a guess but utorrent gave me a red light on a port check and on downloads but was wrong and both changed to green after some weeks. On a speed test, what download speed does it show and make sure the kb or kB is correct. This Linux d/l should give you good speeds, let it run about 20 minutes: http://linuxtracker.org/ (at top) and let me know what utorrent shows..

Got it fixed. Had to set port forwarding also on my Vonage device which both my modem and router connect to.

I really appreciate your help Mistycat! Unfortunately it's still not turning green, even after all your recommendations... I can't believe it's still not working...:(

Solved!
As I stated above, my internet provider had a small crash, I couldn't log on to the net anymore at all, so I called them, and they gave me a temporary log-in address, the log-in name that you have to write in your modem or router, whatever it's called, that enables you to access the net. Anyway, I changed that temporary log-in name now back to my standard one, and now when I go to utorrent, well, the light is greeeen!!
I wanna thank you very much again Mistycat. :)
