ANSWERED Torrents not working from US servers

[brtennis 5]

I went on vacation for two weeks, and came back to find that my torrents can neither download nor upload when connected to some (all?) US servers. I have specifically tried Andromedae, Sirius, and all United States with UDP 443 and not been able to achieve any data transfer at all (though sometimes my torrent client shows that peers are connected), and all United States with UDP 53 seems severely hampered. Here are my speeds:

 

No VPN: 1.26M/10K

US Andromedae, US Sirius UDP 443: 0K/0K

All United States UDP 53: 150K/0K

NL Orionis UDP 443: 600K/10K

 

I am using TunnelBlick 3.2.6, though I don't think that matters.

 

What's going on?

Hello!

 

We don't detect any problem on any of the servers you cite, can you please provide more details (OS, torrent client, forwarded port...)? Is DHT enabled?

 

Kind regards

OS: Mac OS X 10.4.8

Torrent client: Tunnelblick 3.2.6

Port forwarding: none

DHT: Unknown, probably not enabled (whatever is default)

Hello!

 

Please confirm your torrent client (it can't be Tunnelblick) and enable DHT.

 

Kind regards
