Problem Connecting To Torrents

Post by tikimaize »

Hi all, for some reason I cannot connect to torrents on this site. I am using Vista and utorrent 1.7.5. Does anyone have any suggestions? I can connect to torrents on any other site I use including MetFuk. TIA for helping out.

I'm not sure what ABC is?

I do not get an error message. It says it's downloading, but the connections to peers and seeds is zero. It's confusing the hell out of me because it only happens on this site :huh:

I have connected to torrents on this site in the past, this only started happening recently. Is there any way to check the last torrent I connected to?

Did you recently get a new firewall or anything? It sounds as if you are having some type of router issue.

ABC is another Torrent Client.

I have not changed my firewall only my OS.... I would have thought that it was a firewall issue as well, except that I can connect to torrents on other sites. That is the part that is driving me insane.

Which torrent did you try? Were you listed as a peer on the site?

The last one I've tried is Metallica 7/10/2007 Oslo, Norway, Audience 2 CD's FLAC
This is not the only one though. There have been a few others.

It says logged in as tikimaize.....
I can access the link in the torrent section which causes utorrent to open but it never connects to any peers.

I just noticed that under the tracker status it says connection closed by peer.

maybe you need to reset your passkey. Trying to find the shortcut for you. I know the seemed to help when people had problems with torrents at metfuk.

edit: To Reset your Passkey do the following:
  • Remove any metpage torrent from your torrent application
  • Close your torrent application
  • Login to the Tracker
  • Click on Your Details
  • Click on the reset passkey link
  • Restart your Torrent application
  • Re-add torrent files
