Real Noob to torrenting - Help!
Posted: Tue Oct 29, 2019 11:11 am
Hello everyone,,,
I'm new to torrenting and qBittorrent is my first foray into file sharing. Running Win 10 and ver. 3.3.16. Downloading has been a snap since I started but uploading has been slow and spotty. Once I found my port wasn't discoverable on Canyouseeme, I went through the process of setting up a static IP and port forwarding. My firewall already has an exception for qbittorrent and now canyouseeme, Can see me on the designated port. Connection light is green and I can DL like crazy (plenty of speed up and down) but peers connect, then almost immediately, disconnect without any data exchange.
This seems like it should be something simple but I can't figure it out. Tried searching this forum but nothing I came across seems to help.
