SEEDING TROUBLE
-
@deeteedub This sounds like a port forwarding issue. You need to make sure that the port that your torrent client uses is forwarded through your home network to your computer, both in TCP and UDP. This is a critical and necessary step in order to get proper upload traffic.
-
@MrMazda -- This is the same answer I always get. And yet, my settings work fine with about a dozen other torrent sites I'm a member. This is the only site that gives me seeding problems.
-
@deeteedub That's because our systems are not setup like others and do not support passive nodes by default. Doing so requires port forwarding to be in place.
-
@MrMazda OK, thanks. Is there an easy to follow set of instructions somewhere here for qbittorrent?
-
@MrMazda BTW, here's my settings. Thanks again.

-
@deeteedub Ah.... Therein lies problem #2... You are using a proxy service. This causes all kinds of problems with getting upload, or more particularly, with upload reporting to the tracker properly. So it's a combination of 2 things in this case.
-
@MrMazda --- OK. I thought using a VPN for torrents was highly recommended. I guess I'm back to square one then. Thanks for your time.
-
@deeteedub ... all torrent clients has their own default settings ...
Modifying can cause several issues ...
The share ratio you highlighted and circled [above] is the percent rate of data you distributed from those peers connected ...
Your actual total upload rate can be found @ right below the status bar and your upload share @ your profile [status here] ...
Upload relies on your bandwidth and divided into peers connected ...
Seeding too many torrents will throttle speed limit ... -
@deeteedub Use of a VPN is recommended, but a proxy is not the same as a VPN.

@MrMazda said in SEEDING TROUBLE:
Use of a VPN is recommended
Absolutely ...
These will protect you from expose ip address and remain hidden from online activities ...
as a security measure ...
