rodexo Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Hello! I got exactly the same problem! I reinstaled Windows and now BC doesn't want to DHT connect anymore. All the rules in the XP2 Firewall are in place and I even tryed to disable it to see if is working and... is dead! I have nothing else on my computer but Windows and BC. Before I got ZA and worked perfectly. What am I doing wrong? THX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark_Shroud Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Read our FAQ and don't use ZA. Just un-install that piece of crap and use McAfee or Kerio instead. Check my sig for a link to the free version of Kerio. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note: I read al the guides an FAQ's and by the way is not the first time for me to use BC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Shroud Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 First off you need at least one firewall running. Use the XP SP-2 firewall and make sure the exceptions are allowed. You guys have a setting that's off somewhere. DHT uses UDP, so make sure you have UDP connections allowed in your firewalls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithas Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Hi guys I had the very same problem a couple of days ago and surfed on almost every forum site to solve this problem, but I couldn't. Then I downloaded the new version of Bitcomet (v0.71) and suddenly it started to work correctly, even better. You may want to try it as well. And also note that I found another comment on how to solve this particular problem on another forum site and it says just go to the preferences and unclick Enable DHT Network option and restart the client, and then click that option and again restart the Bitcomet client and it works. They say they successfuly tried this on 3 different systems. One last thing, if you have XP SP2, then do not omit to patch the system to increase the maximum allowed TCP connection whatever limit, it really helps, as I tripled the download speed. That's all. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Shroud Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 That patch doesn't improve download speed. It only helps with start-up. But good luck since Windows doesn't like those patches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithas Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I haven't encountered anything weird since, but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
