not firewalled but can't upload

I am able to download but cannot upload. I'm using utorrent and I have a Netgear router #B90-755025-15. I've established a static ip address and I have gone into my router settings and successfully added and enabled the port forwarding for the port listed in utorrent. TDD says I am not firewalled. On canyouseeme.org, I get the success message. If I go into the utorrent set-up guide and run the test for the network, it tells me that my port is not open but I am still able to download. I shut down the laptop, unplugged the router and restarted everything. I've done a lot of research and now I'm out of ideas. Any help would be much appreciated.

Re: not firewalled but can't upload

If your torrent client is saying you are firewalled, but everything else is saying you are fine, then there is a problem with your torrent client settings. Did you make sure to not tell it to select a random port every time you open it?

Re: not firewalled but can't upload

In the Connection menu, the box that says "Randomize port each start" is not checked.

Re: not firewalled but can't upload

Hmmm, I don't use uTorrent, so I am not sure how much help I can be.

Are you trying to upload to torrents that actually have leechers on them? Do they show up in your Profile > Torrent Stats tab at all?

Re: not firewalled but can't upload

What version of Utorrent? I'd suggest sticking with 2.2.1 build 25302. Anything later stinks.

Your anti-virus could be an issue too, also did you create an exception for utorrent in windows firewall?

Re: not firewalled but can't upload

I can upload now, not sure why. Thanks for the help and other information.
Marksg - you are the second person who recommended uT 2.2.1. I will probably look into that if I continue to have problems.

Re: not firewalled but can't upload

TTD says Firewalled but iīm uploading, my firewall shows an exception for uTorrent (random port enable)? I see Seeders: 1, Leechers: 3

Re: not firewalled but can't upload

TTD shows me as firewalled periodically throughout the day-maybe about 50% of the time. At this point I just ignore it

Re: not firewalled but can't upload

Hi
Your better off unticking random ports and get it working with 1 port number.
UPnP - Universal Plug and Pray is not the best way from a security perspective.

If your not using a VPN service you can open that port number in your router.

all the best
