When a uTorrent gets stuck on connecting to peers, it could point to a problem with your network configuration. BitTorrent has a reputation—and not a very good one. To most people, it means illegal file sharing, which is why internet service providers will where possible block and severely limit the capability of users downloading or uploading BitTorrent files.
Many users will prefer to use a virtual private network VPN to bypass ISP restrictions or to maintain their anonymity while downloading or sharing BitTorrent files.
Check with your VPN provider and, if it does offer BitTorrent-friendly servers, make sure to connect to these when using uTorrent to download or share your files.
If uTorrent is not connecting to peers, it might be worth looking at alternative BitTorrent clients to see if the problem is with the software and not with the file. To lower the risks, you should consider scanning for malware on your Windows PC on a regular basis. Try seeding a little, and see if your torrents start speeding up. Use wifi-only mode, which is also under Settings. Did you find it helpful?
Yes No. Solution home Android app Trending. I just updated to 4. I selected "Use different port on each startup" and it the torrents immediately moved from downloading metadata to downloading.
Having the same issue with proxy on windows Thanks, as a fix that works for me until a proper fix comes along I'm using Qbittorrent-VPN docker. Was working fine for me at first. I'm currently running Ubuntu Server Sonarr grabs the show, passes the magnet url to qbittorrent, and qbittorrent downloads the show. First test worked fine, except that after download, Sonarr could not access the download location So to possibly fix this, I created a folder in a publically accessible location, and changed permissions so everyone and their grandmother could access it I am NOT using a proxy.
But if I enable proxy without giving it any real proxy info, it will go away from the 'metadata' thing, and go into 'downloading' but does nothing. Once I switch back to 'none' for proxy, it then downloads a few bytes of data, then nothing.
Still says "downloading" but nothing is actually being downloaded. At this point, the people going "this is an upstream issue" need to actually think about what's going on I remember I used to use it on windows as my main torrent downloader, but moved away from it ages ago and couldn't remember why I did, but figured that whatever made me want to move away must have been fixed by now Check your rate limits.
If your rate limits for upload are set to 0, then change them to something reasonable. After doing this, everything immediately started downloading, and all the stalled downloads restarted. Now though, I'm not sure if this is what they're referring to as an 'upstream issue', as I was under the impression that when they kept saying 'upstream issue' they were talking about the code being uploaded to the PPA and thus being what gets 'downloaded' to the community Although, with all this said, I do seem to still have an issue with a single download, as the download speed is unusually slow compared to everything else I'm not sure if this is just because out of all the files I've tested, this one happens to be the 'newest' as it was just uploaded today I was having the same problem here, but as you commented before about changing ports I looked for on qb and found the option to use a different port every time it initializes and it worked for me!
Hope it was helpful! I just got this problem again, and i notice this warning at the bottom of the window. But i click and goes to the Connection Tab but i don't know what to change there.
It's hard to fix a bug that no one within the team is able to replicate and also seems to affect users upstream too. Just thought I'd add: I'm using qBittorrent-nox 4. Enabling "Use Random Port on Startup" fixed my issues. Also drastically improved my speeds which is a plus. I did not have to adjust my rate limits; they are still set to 0. Well I have figured it out. I've been experiencing this problem for years with uTorrent, and recently realized that in my case, at least , it is happening whenever I have a large number of torrents that I'm seeding; several hundred at least.
Allow the new downloading torrent s to connect, and then restart all the seeding torrents. After restarting, the new downloads will retain their connections and the seeds will connect for uploading, as if there was never a problem. This works every time, regardless of the number of torrents I'm seeding. Everyone else who has ever given advice about this problem, such as changing Bandwidth, Queuing, Connection, or other preference settings, have just been throwing out wildly inaccurate guesses trust me, I've tried them all in every conceivable variation.
This is clearly a resource limitation within uTorrent, that no setting changes will correct, but this method works. Try it! That tells me your connection limits and active torrent limits are horridly wrong for your connection. I have done some more experimenting and found the real source of the problem.
The culprit here is TPB torrents tracking in the same client uTorrent as private tracker torrents. When I shut down just my TPB torrents, this problem completely goes away.
Doesn't seem to matter how many TPB torrents; as long as there are any active ones, they interfere with private torrent trackers starting up and staying connected. My bet is that most others who are having this problem, are seeing it on their private trackers as well.
