Got another question here..

okay I have a problem. I have a couple of Files on my hard drive that I want to help people out with seeding. I haven't screwed with the files or anything like that. I try to seed for the people that are needing my help. When I open my client I get the reading that it is a full DL and it goes to hook up with the leecher but then all the sudden drops them and turns red What is up with this??? And when i'm downloading I can upload but only when i'm downloading!!! Because right when i'm done the uploading quits. I want to stay to seed and want to help other's that are stuck but I can't do it. Help me!!!!! Oh yeah i'm not firewalled

What BitTorrent client are you using?
What country do you live in?
What's your ISP?

My guess is that your ISP prevents BitTorrent upload traffic.

Re: Got another question here..

BitTornado
U.S.
Adelphia cable

The weird thing is that sometimes only occasionally I can stay and seed after dowloading but when I try to open a file that needs a seed it'll open and connect with others only for seconds though then drop em'.. SUX!!!!

Re: Got another question here..

Will BitTornado allow you to cap your upload speed? You might try setting it to something like 30 and seeing if that helps.

Is capping when you cap off the uploading speed on the client so it doesn't try to uplaod to much at a time?

Yes, capping is when you set a limit on how high it can go.

In your preferences or options. I'm not familiar with BitTornado, so I don't even know if you can do that.

Re: Got another question here..

you need to go thru those prefs and or options with a fine tooth comb.....
you might have something on that stops your uploading when you reach a certian ratio.....or maybe something else...

good luck keep us posted....
