Hello...and HELP! I've all of sudden became firewalled and I can't get out of it. I have been working with portforward and have tried everything! I open ports BUT they still are not reachable....I have been doing this for years. Then probably a week ago I became FIREWALLED...Not just here at TTD....ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Happened to me a couple of times, where Windows updates turned the firewall on. Go in and turn ii off and reboot and see if that works. Did for me.

Check your cable service. Comcrap so charitably gave me the new firewall and didn't say a thing. Finally found they were blocking the sites I was going to. Disable that firewall . . .

So they put up their own firewall? How did you get around it? In the Router?

I thought it might be an update thing...Reboot with the firewall off?

Go to the homepage of the provider and check internet settings. There should be a toggle switch to turn the firewall off and on. After that, you should be good to go.

Thanks...nothing like that on their website. It is a rural ISP and they don't block anything...but I'll call the and double check. tried everything else? However, things are working fine with TDD now....but...still says FIREWALLED and any portchecker shows I am blocked...:hmm:

i have been having a persistent "?false positive?". TTD says FIREWALLED, but casyouseeme.org shows success when testing if the port is visible.

It doesn't matter if you're firewalled. Stop spending so much time trying to solve a non-issue. If you're firewalled, all it means is that you can't connect to another firewalled person in a torrent. You can still connect to people who aren't firewalled. It's no big deal.

I don't know why somebody would think that an ISP would firewall a user - normally it's due to a setting on your router.

Long story short. Don't worry about it!

your comment is bullshit, it's absolutely important to have an open port when seeding. if you consider it a non-issue that you are clueless.
