Got that YELLOW light again


pwbii

Recommended Posts

Howdy, My list first: BitComet 1.25 - Time Warner cable broadband - 1 modem Arris TM502G - 1 wireless router RCA / Thomson DCW725 - Windows 7 Professional - Comodo Firewall - System Mechanic Pro 10 anti-virus. I used the help you folks have here to turn on my routers UPnP function. That did get rid of the yellow light on the bottom of BitComet GUI. after a restart yesterday the yellow light is back. Also, the UDP & TCP listen port are the same port 26855. I have checked the router UPnP is still on. windows firewall & Comodo Have BitComet allowences. Windows also seems to be set right. I do have my up & down speeds set correctly. I am not sure what to look at now. Anyone have any thoughts on where to go?

Howdy, again. This seems to be a continuation of the earlier problem. (see above) After a restart for an update to another program I lost the UPnP router. The router settings still say it's on, but BitComet isn't finding it.

Again, any help would be appreciated. FYI I have verified my firewalls seem to allow connections. Thomson site says router UPnP is on. The site you recomended to check the port can't find the port either. Also my router is wireless. But I only use 2 of the hard wired ports right now. Before I only lost one port. Now there both blocked. No settings have been changed that I am aware of.

I suspect your settings got interrupted because the restart caused your computer to be assigned a different IP address from your router. This is why we recommend setting up a static IP address in windows, so that your IP address won't change.

As for uPnP (universal plug n play), it's great when it works, but when it doesn't, its far harder to diagnose then it is to simply open the port manually (portforward) in your router. If you want a guess, then I'd say your router was allowing upnp configuration from IP: 192.168.0.11, then when your IP changed to 192.168.0.10, it didn't recognize it and refused it to allow access to upnp config. Why it would do that? I haven't a clue. There is no set of rules to force all routers to accept the same standards when it comes to upnp, so there really is nothing "universal" about it, and it seldom is "plug n play".

However, If you try powering off everying, then starting up your modem, router, then computer followed by bitcomet, it may detect things properly, or alternatively you can simply go into your routers settings and setup portforwarding AND set your computers IP to static in Windows.

Thanks, again. I followed the instructions for a static port & forwarded it correctly. Green light is back. See info below. I assume that will stay on now.
