1. General chit chatter about U2torrents. How to use etc
  2. is the seeder online?
  3. Which torrent program do you use ?
  4. I use bittorrent

    could be the seeder is not online, how to check that?


  5. I believe BitTorrent is banned from U2T. Try uTorrent.

    Seeders and leechers are listed at the end of the torrent description.

    Ok, now i've installed utorrent, but same thing happens: I push 'start' and it says 'inactive'. So no downloading
    I have the feeling that I'm doing something terribly wrong, but what could that be?
  7. Perhaps you have to activate the torrent-file manuelly? Go on it and klick the right Mouse-Button then "Start". You can also set it under "Option-->Preferences--->UI-Settings. I hope that works.

    Let's try to figure it out. Might be tricky as I can't look at your screen.

    First of all, there's plenty of seeders and the torrent itself is healthy, so there's something wrong with your settings.

    By the way, I don't remember ever having to push start. Just click the torrent file on U2T, it will open in uTorrent (just pick a location where you want to store the DVD's and click OK) and it should start downloading automatically.

    Maybe the problem is that you can't connect to the tracker because of a firewall. If you have a firewall, make sure to add uTorrent to the list of allowed applications.

    Do you have a (wireless) router? That does complicate the situation as every router has a built-in firewall that might block uTorrent. If you indeed do have a router, please look up the brand and model, if you know these it's easy to configure it correctly in most cases.
  9. thanks! I will try

    BitTorrent is NOT banned from U2Torrents. I have used BT on U2T when downloading the U2 Pure DVD this week...


  11. Well I never STATED it did I. You're right, there's a few clients banned but BitTorrent is allowed. Anyway uTorrent is recommended and commonly considered superior. Whatever. A suggestion to help someone out might be more contributive.
  12. Not related to the original query. Think i've downloaded about 25GB in 2 or 3 days. All new stuff. Not a single leecher on anything I downloaded. Ratio went from a perfect 1 to around 0.85.
