Like title says, lately azureas just wont connect to any torrents. Tracker status always says "connection error" and so i tried doing the NAT test and i get this:
Testing port 6881 ... Unable to test (invalid port given, or test service failed)


whatever the hell does that mean? anyway, i always tring yABC and it wont download faster than 5KBps realmad.gif

You gotta forward ports via the router.

dont forward 6881-6889 as most ISP's are now blocking those ports. i usually like to do 7000-7021 or so.
Hasin
no router here and Azurues is allowed any port on my firewall.

but what does it mean by:
(invalid port given, or test service failed)

service?

There is this program that tells you exactly what ports are open, download it, and use one of the open ports. I had this same issue, go to their website and check in the Help section.

bah, azureus always gave me too much hassle to bother with.

i recommend bitspirit, it's free and very professionally made. unelss of course you simply have to have RSS downloading.

This might be a good time to try µTorrent, it's interface is mostly like Azureus but without the Java interface bloat.

As for the ports number just randomly put port numbers in, like DJ said.

Hey, that uTorrent looks pretty good!
