Re: [Extreme] alternative ports for 1720 (tested)
said by nick_____ :
jhust installed azureus beta and set:
options -> connection -> advanced network settings -> require encrypted transport (plain, check allow non-encrypted... both of them)
if enough people do this.. pretty much rogers wouldn't be able to do anything about that..
Encryption is the cure. I would say in a couple of months all the better clients with probably support it, and everyone will be laughing at ISPs who used to limit bittorrent traffic. |

i'm curious as to how the azureus encryption will be any different from the bitcomet one, because the bitcomet one sure isn't working. |

exactly... so get rid of rogers everyone... i've lived in 3 apartments in ottawa, and everytime i had the dirty task of getting rid of my roomates' stupid rogers... none of them looked back... I just moved again, and guess what? I'm stuck with the task again... btw, that azureus beta encryption thing doesn't work with rogers... except where I'm living now, instead of the downloads becoming slow-ass... when you use file sharing/bit torrent, your connection simply cuts off after about 20 minutes and you have to reset your modem to get the internet back on! is that facked? |

if isps can't give users the speed they advertise, that's their own fault for falsely advertising... take a step back in the speed you offer if you can't if you can't handle the traffic it generates! Main point, don't falsely advertise. State all your limitations up front with customers. |

| I'm not telling anybody what they should do. I'm just speculating what will happen. Rogers is in business to make money and if traffic shapers don't end up working in curtailing "high cost" customers, they'll have to find another way. North Americans are used to flat rate billing but it only works if there aren't too many extreme outliers in the system. |

I'm on Azereus 2.3.0.4 right now. When I upgraded to the next one that came out (.0.6) I got that problem. I went back to .4 and the problem resolved. I have no idea what the issue was there, but it sounds like software conflict unless .6 has some feature that .4 doesn't that Rogers is actively the cutoff to.
I'm in North York and 1720 and 1755 both dropped me down to zero |

1 edit | cgigate, you'll have to wait until the stable releases come out that have the encryption on them so everyone else can upgrade. it wont work too well right now with the beta's as its in testing stage and not many people are on the beta's, they're on the stables. |

Hey guys I'm in the Steeles and Warden area and I have also been angered by Rogers actions. I was using Bitcomet with port 1720, was working well until about a week ago. I tried the latest beta of Utorrent the highest rate I got was 20kb/s, but it was not stable. HELp |

here's a new wrinkle: azureus now informs me that i'm "Firewalled." i've been able to download torrents fine all this time, my port (1720) is open, it's being redirected properly and for some reason all of a sudden i can't connect at all. what gives? anyone else having this same problem? |

| I think you probably are not allowing unencrypted incoming connections. If there are no successful incoming connections, Azureus will think you are firewalled.
Just because people are downloading v2.4 doesn't mean they are configuring encryption. Most people won't and don't need to. They will accept encrypted connections from you but will still only initiate normal connections. You should check the "allow unencrypted connections" boxes especially if port 1720 was working for you. |

I do have same problem. I to the NAT check in tools says its ok but on the bottom still says I am firewalled. Even though I am getting better speeds than I did up to 70KB/s. I didn't have the 2 boxes checked though which I will try now. |

Bitcomet works nice through proxies but not good for much else. I recommended it to a few for that but Rogers customers check out the new Azureus 2.4.0.0 and let me know how it does with Rogers. 2.4.0.0 is significant because it now supports full encryption BUT it only works with Azureus and utorrent clients that also have it enabled. It's disabled by default in options but since its free why don't you encourage all Rogers customers to get it and see if things improve. Another idea to make this help-post on your BT forums awareness that they should enable this with fallback option set on. If you can get a good number in your tracker to do this, it may work. Good luck guys! |
