| Post subject: | Getting rid of the yellow light!(Do not understand stickies) |
I'm using Bittornado and I ALWAYS have the yellow light on EVERY torrent I download, even if there is a lot of seeders and I should be downloading at a high speed. I tried reading some of the stickied threads, but they do not make sense, are poorly written, and what they ask me to click on I cannot find. Here is some background information which I probably should give you: Connection speed: Broadband Router: There is a BEFSR41 V3 router operating my network. However, I am not under a router, I am hosting it and I'm the one who is sharing my internet to one other person. So I do not believe it is a router problem Firewall: I do not have a firewall, and I don't think Windows Firewall is the cause of the problem Torrent site: Torrentspy. I am sure there are a lot of users on this forum who download torrents off of that site, so for those who do, you should exactly know how to solve my problem. |

Check your IP addresses. If your computer's IP is in one of the ranges listed in RFC 1918, you're misinformed, and it is a router problem. http://portforward.com/routers.htm |

The problem is that is looks useful, but I couldn't get anywhere with the site because of the "Static IP" part. I tried reading their guide on how to setup a static IP but a part of the guide you have to use a "Names server" in the command prompt. But I do not have that so they say you need to call your ISP and they will tell you. But I do not want to get into that much trouble for a matter like this. |

You can get the Name Servers from ipconfig /all The DNS servers listed are the ones you use. (DNS stands for Domain Name Service) Is this of any help? |
