why does one thing say on and the other off and azureus says firewalled?


I know it's messing cause I have 7 files in teh que and its either dl at 0 or will bounce up to 10. it's also dl only one file out of said 7.


it was good until a week ago, when I paused 2 torrents, and they resumed and it has been bad after that.


router used to make torents not work, but port is now open and ok.


so changing firewall settings will be easier. what do I do, or at least search in google.

Hit Start then run..Type in services.msc Go to Windows Firewall/ICS. Double click it. In the middle of the screen that comes up under start-up type...Change to disable. Click OK, restart.

Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)

[ed1380]

i was looking for firewall and ctrl+f didn't find anything either.

firewall is finally off, but it's conected to peers (barely) but not downloading

Better solution as disabling the service can cause other problems, clear the check marks under the Advanced tab of Windows Firewall. You'll probably need to restart Azureus to get the UPnP to map.

[dygital]

Go to your router, and make sure UPnP is ENABLED. Also, disable its own hardware firewall. Then power cycle it.

[ed1380]

I'll try the UPnP thing.

it all worked fine until a week ago I turned on firewall, now it won't turn off

Additional Comment:

upnp is allowed

Ignore that statement... If the firewall on the router is a problem, learn to configure it. Also, UPnP should be auto-mapping the ports to the internal IP. UPnP was nice when it came out... but it really is actually a pain....

Here's a thought, make sure UPnP is working on your computer. Google UPnP tester and there's a couple (sp?) of tools to check if UPnP is working correctly.

Here's what I use... sorry for the slow sped. Linky

that tells me nothing

heres how it is and it worked this way. but like I said. week ago I turned FW on and now it won't turn off/ don't work

[drake85]

Well, it does say that UPnP is working, otherwise you wouldn't have gotten an output. Hmm...

[ed1380]

it said this for a few minutes, but stopped.
I'll give it tonight


AWW F*CK

it says firewalled again

[MrObvious]

Try hooking up your computer to the modem directly and see if it works or not.

[ed1380]

I tried that once, when i first installed the router, but lost the pw, and didn't want to reset, and lol it didn't work.

i did some port forwarding thing, and now it works. even though sometimes it'll say fiewalled, it'll still dl at nice speeds


so thx guys for all your help

[drake85]

It occasionally saying firewalled is because of a lack of response from a packet used to sense if you're firewalled or not
