PORT UNCONFIRMED....... NO DOWNLOADS

by Guest on 2014/01/10 04:25:52 AM    
Hello,

I am new to Tixati, but have some previous experience with Torrent downloading in other software.

I have set Firewall rules in both Win 7 Firewall and Comodo Firewall, but still no inbound connections to Tixati.
I am using DSL and a wireless Linsksys E1500 NRouter.

What must I do, to finally get an incoming connection ....or fix my problem of no downloading from Tixati?

Thanks!

Usually port unconfirmed only affects your upload ability, not download. But if your firewall block Tixati to a point where it can't download at all then port forward no longer important. (not a primary factor) I've download in some office where port is unconfirmed, but still get 4MBps (~32Mbps and nearly maximum that office bandwith package) and only slow upload rate.

Both Utorrent and Tixati can download maxspeed without port-forwarding (of course you have pick the nice seeding torrent in 1st place). Portforwarding mainly for increase uploading.

Could you download by Tixati without firewall enabled? If you can, then it's your setting in firewall software, not Tixati. If you don't want to turn off firewall for check, then alright, search more info about your firewall settings.

Yes, nnq2603, I too have had the ability to download in utorrent and azureus without port-forwarding in the past, but it does not seem the case in Tixati.  
To answer your question, no, I have not been able to download anything since installing and setting firewall priviledges for Tixati.
It just seems something is shut for incoming connections and I have not a clue at this point what it could be.

I just tried downloading an app that has 600+ seeds and Tixati tells me that the connections on the Peers just keep timing-out.  On all of them.
I wonder what "I am missing here?

Hello again,

Well, after working on this problem of no download connections, I have created a static IP address, I have manually forwarded the port through my N-router, and still to no avail.
But after all that, I find out the problem seems to be my VPN.  
When I turn off the VPN Service, I get nodes showing and downloading starts.

So for those that have had similar problems, don't forget to check out your VPN, if you are using one.  It could be the culprit of no downloads.

Hi there,
I have the same issue and tried all possible solutions offered with no positive result for the DTH: unconfirmed incoming port...can't see peers or incoming connection time out is a constant occurence.. I can t seed anything atm when adding and creating new seed threads ..I get 0(0)0(0)... :Z ... worked on it for days with no luck!

anyone has an idea how to resolve this, I'll be please to read it...And Tixati developer could do well to help too, that would be great...Thanks.

Hi. I'm also having the same problem when I used my university's wifi. Works perfectly at home though. It used to work perfectly before the end of the year, but now nothing. I tried port-forwarding, not sure I did it right, but didn't work. Got a Static IP, also didn't work. Not sure what else to try. Thanks.

Definitive solution for port unconfirmed:
*Have a decent router, not a ugly modemrouter. Have a Cisco, have a MikroTik, something that isn't a consumer router.
*Read for the first time your router manual and the whole router Wiki if you didn't understood the main panels locations.
*Access your router using the Windows Gateway assigned IP, which mostly is 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1. If the gateway is an internet/WAN IP, them you are in trouble with that crapmodem.
*Make static IP for torrent client AT the router DHCP Server panel.
*Make port-forward at firewall/NAT panel to static IP, TCP/UDP, to the client port. Destination port is the port of the torrent client.
