I just downloaded BitTornado and started downloading and noticed the yellow light. I've tried everything even completely turning off the firewall and nothing is working. I'm at a dead end and need some suggestions.

can you open ports with a hub? i dunno

im maxing out at 3kb/s please help

try using different ports, the more random the better. (over 10000 works best tho)

im using 10000-10010

the download went over night and it still didnt get half way done...thats how slow it is. SOMEONE has to know what to do.

how big is the file?

like 175mb its rediculous

what firewall are you using? its best not to completely disable it because some are bastards (especially XP SP2) for closing ports after they have been disabled...

if you forward the correct ports through it then you can rule that out as a possible yellow light causer

ok i tried that and im still getting a yellow light...this is getting annoying

right. this may or may not work. goto www.whatismyip.com and copy your ip.

then goto prefs>advanced in bittornado.

then where it says local ip (first field) enter the ip that you got from the website.

save the settings and close bt down. re-open it and start a torrent download. leave it for 10 mins and you might just have a green light

STOP!!! dont go to www.whatismyip.com, i just realised that it is bollocks, sorry about that. instead goto
start>run>cmd

then at the command prompt type ipconfig, then you will get your ip
