ANSWERED I'm unable contact trackers

[maalbak 0]

I tried all the guides on the forum and also other, but there is something wrong with the torrent.

I've configured the port forwarding as described in the guides on Ubuntu 14.04, no port forward to the router

Checkin my IP to mio-ip.it is ok. The ip address shown is correct.

I tried with Transmission, qBittorrent and Vuze, using networkmanager or Eddie .... but the result is always the same:

unloading and loading ok, without any trouble, speed ok... but all trackers are unreachable.

 

Mainly i use tracker.tntvillage.scambioetico.org on port 2710, but also all others, that remains unreachable.

It's been discussed and responded to by staff somewhere on the forum...it was related to the fact that trackers themselves block a range of ips and as you experience, some airvpn servers are affected.

 

Make sure DHT is enabled in your torrent client. Your torrent client will exchange peers by connecting to other peers on the network, this explaining why your speed is ok even though you can't connect to trackers. It takes more time than with a tracker but renders them almost useless at the end so no big issue ;-)

It was me, actually. And Staff. And others.

These trackers are called public and they are known for blocking proxies/VPN services.

 

Thank you. One more FAQ added to my signature.

Yes,, DHT is enabled...

If that's the case ... ok. No problem. Thanks for your support!
