boxster Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I cant get seeds. I only get a few seeds from local and no remote seeds. Anyone know what's wrong i'm connected through a rounter i didnt have this problem until i reformated my computer. Before i cant get seed because of UPNP or something.

The UnUsual Suspect Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 This means your router is not upnp compatible, or it is not enabled. I recomend users don't use uPnP anyway, its much more relyable to manually configure you ports. If you go to portforward.com, they have guides for most routers, including pictures. I also recommend you set a static IP address in windows (they have guide for that too). Then turn off uPnP in bit comet. Suspect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxster Posted October 12, 2006 Author Share Posted October 12, 2006 (edited) I had already configured my port, but i still have the same problem. If I remembered correctly i think there's a small program for UPnp that i have to install into my computer in order for it to work.! :unsure: Edited October 12, 2006 by Dark_Shroud (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 the ONLY thing uPnP does is configure your ports in your router. Turn OFF uPnP in bit comet. This is all you have to do. Suspect ps. you might want to go here to test if your listening port is configured properly http://www.canyouseeme.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxster Posted October 12, 2006 Author Share Posted October 12, 2006 (edited) For the Port do i just enter the port the my bitcomet is listenning? This is what it says after i enetered the port Error: I could not see your service on 24.XX.XXX.04 on port Edited October 12, 2006 by Dark_Shroud (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Then you do not have this port forwarded in your router, or if you did, then it could be that your ip address has changed, which is why I suggested you set a static IP address... If you go to portforward.com, they have guides for most routers, including pictures. I also recommend you set a static IP address in windows (they have guide for that too). When your router is properly configured, this site will be able to see your listening port. Suspect ps. this is what you should see Success: I can see your service on 12.345.678.90 on port (55555) Your ISP is not blocking port 55555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxster Posted October 12, 2006 Author Share Posted October 12, 2006 (edited) I had done exactly what is being asked in Portforward.com, but it didnt do anything i still get this Windows XP UPnP Status: device not found in the LOG in Bitcomet Edited October 12, 2006 by Dark_Shroud (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I'm getting a bit tired of repeating myself, so PLEASE READ this... the ONLY thing uPnP does is configure your ports in your router.Turn OFF uPnP in bit comet. This is all you have to do. Suspect ps. you might want to go here to test if your listening port is configured properly http://www.canyouseeme.org/ I've now told you at least three times, EITHER use port forwarding OR uPnP. Port forwarding is far better and more relyable, and your router is NOT compatible with uPnP, so DISABLE this function in bit comet. Now, if you properly forwarded your port, then it will be listed as open at canyouseeme.org. If it is not, then either you did something wrong, or something is conflicting with that port, so select another. Suspect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitdave Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Make sure that Bitcomet is open when you test your port on canyouseeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
