Why don't seeds & peers shown in tracker show up in my BT client?
Why is it that if I look at a torrents stats on the tracker, it may show 5 seeds and 12 peers, but when I connect, my client may only show 2 seeds and 5 peers?
Also, if I have finished downloading and have my window open to seed, my client may show 0 seeds and 3 leechers and I think I am their only seed, but if I go to the tracker it may show 4 seeds and even more leechers than my client shows.
Why is there this discrepancy between tracker and client?
How can I connect to more of the seeds?
I am not firewalled (green light, baby), but never see the same connections as the tracker. I can understand if there are hundreds of peers, not connecting to all of them, but with a small swarm, why not?
Is there any setting I can change in my client (BitTornado) to allow more connections to seeds/peers?
Thanks for any feedback. This has been puzzling me for some time now.
