Utorrent why is status red

By DaredevileGirl , June 12, in Troubleshooting. I have been using uTorrent for awhile now and have had no problems until tonight. Got home from work and found that all my seeding files where no longer green but RED. Now I don't get any green tick on the bottom right corner telling me everything is working. When I tried to fix this like i used to do by checking the Setup Guide and selecting the Bandwith country, I found that the countries I normally could select has changed to only four options in Africa and NONE work!

Thanks for the help. Really appreciate it. The whole things seems to have slowed down a lot, but as my ISP has doubled my speed and put me on fibre, I would have thought it should not do that. Also many torrents don't seem to seed as they did and today I suddenly see that many of them are red, as in the attached picture. I can't find out what that means, but I assume that for some reason it means they aren't available for upload although they are all in the folder I store torrents in.

I have reset uTorrent using the downloaded settings. A tracker being offline can either be temporary or permanent. Unless the torrent is private, trackers aren't really necessary. I noticed this morning that most of the torrents that were red yesterday were green earlier today but I have just checked and they are back to red again! I had asked my ISP to check my setup after an earlier post a few weeks back about poor speeds and they changed my entire setup to fibre and doubled the speed.

All this has happened since then. Also I see I have started to get this yellow starred tick instead of a green tick when I run the setup guide. O Each torrent shows the tracker as being offline and utorrent is timing a retry. This is despite the tracker not being offline. O I should still have a cached directory of peers and seeds for each torrent but these are all 0 0.

X Closing utorrent and restarting the application will albeit temporarily fix the issue: utorrent finds all trackers again and connections are established. Next time it happens I will take a screenshot or is there anything else that would prove more helpful? Its a Draytek Vigor I'm well aware of the issue cheap dlink and netgears have not releasing connections properly so I've bought this hoping it will be a lot more robust and its been money well spent.

K now it has just happened again with error offline timed out and i know that the tracker is not offline. Since other ppl are having this issue even without security suites monitoring utorrent it still happens which means it's a bug. It even still lists peers which means the tracker is still active but the torrents have a red up arrow. If you have timeout errors double check you're not overloading the network stack.

Check the Event Viewer. Are you getting errors? Lower the halfopen count in uTorrent. Just because you think it's happening to alot of people with disparate setups doesn't mean it doesn't have the same root cause When you are meaning the event viewer you mean the logger eh?

Because i have looked for a event viewer and it is not there. Windows Event viewer You're looking for event id type "" basically not enough half open slots due to tcpip. Many people follow "guides" which should really be labelled "how to kill your internet" I'd point them to V1. I have heard that vista doesn't have the tcpip. OK, I think people are pulling this thing way off in the wrong direction. The point is that everything works perfectly when reverting back to 1.

So what is new in 1. And how can we fix it permanently for trackers not using SSL? Sorry if I'm missing something obvious here. Start new topic. Recommended Posts. TG Posted August 16, Posted August 16,
