Hi all

I can not get my bittorrent download manager to seed or Leach. There are 0 in both. Is there anything that can be wrong.? My port on the router is 9090, but how will it stand in the link station.?

I have a buffalo LS-WXLEA0, with a Firmware version: 1.40. I have restored my linkstation again, and my router.!

I can connect the webAccess from the internet, but i can´t connect bittorrent to download og upload.

My WebAccess looks like this:
External Port: 9000

Check this out http://forums.buffalotech.com/t5/Storage/LS-WXL-uTorrent-Webui-Port9090-cannot-be-opened-from-remotely/m-p/49822#M30854

 

I suggest you assign static ip to your Linkstation.

Portforwarding is only to a specific ip.

Your Linkstation may keep getting a different ip from router after each reboot due to DHCP.

Hey chankartat.

 

Is all this on the linkstaton.?

 

Where do you find Bittorrent External and FTP? 

 

WebAdmin: External 80, Internal 80

WebAccess: External 9000, Internal 9000

FTP: External 21, Internal 21

Bitorrent: External 9090, Internal 9090

 

Thx for the help.

Hi HenrikJeppesen,

 

All those port forwarding settings need to be done on your router.

Feel free to ask me if you need more help.

: Re: Bittorrent download problems!

Also you need to forward the port that uTorrent is using for communicating with other uTorrent clients.

Normally portforwarding for uTorrent is configured automatcially in your router if your uTorrent client has uPnP enabled.

But I find my uPnP router config don't work automatically.

 

You mentioned your problem is 0 seeding/eaching, I suspect something to do with router portforwarding not configured or some firewall rules blocking uTorrent traffic.

You can find out port that your uTorrent is using at uTorrent WebUI->Preferences->Connection.After that, configure that port number in your router. Router config steps specific to your gear can be found here http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm.

 

 

Cheers !

Could be also the tracker your torrent files are pointing to is down or not accessible.

Dear Henrik,

I am having exactly the same issues here, it's like the NAS BitTorrent client is blind!

Please note that I have received an e-mail from Buffalo Support:


Dear Evernote,
Thank you for contacting the Buffalo Helpdesk regarding your unit.
I have addressed your issue with our specialist product and I came to a conclusion that its will nor perform the same speed as in your PC, as you may know Bittorrent always update their software with PCs to perform in a better condition, but for the LinkStation its a special software was designed for the NAS and capabale of doing certain things but not full as the PC version. So the speed you getting is fine and cannot be compared with the PC version.
If you are unhappy we can downgrade to Firmware 1.34
If you require any further support please let us know.
Regards,
Mahmoud
Buffalo Technology Helpdesk,


Unfortunately this means that the NAS BitTorrent client simply does NOT work.

Hence I will also bump this post and mine till even if it may result in a ban.. until someone looks at this problem seriously because quite clearly Buffalo's support/helpdesk is pathetic.

Regards,

Evernote

Hello Evernote.

 

But my buffalo can´t download or upload. it stays on 0 seed 0 leed. Some say is my router, but i have make a static ip for my NAS and a port to the bitclient. It can´t not be true that the buffalo can not use the bitclient if it is in their description of the product. So a fake product sales.

 

I hope someone can help me.! :(

Hi Henrik,

 

Understand your frustration. Let me try to help.

 

Need info from you :

1. Can you provide a screendump of Linkstation uTorrent WebUI->Preferences->Connection ?

2. Also, need a screendump of the Router screen where you configure portforwaring

3. Your Router error log

 

Can you also do this experiment, install uTorrent on your PC to do download and see if you get the same 0 seeding/leeching problem ?

I have partially same issue here with me, usually I use only the same two trackers when I download torrents, and on the computer itself is running fine, but if I use the buffalo LS bitclient, then it is only one of the trackers that will work, so maybe the issue is with your trackers, and not with you gear ...?

Hey Chankartat

 

I try to format my harddisk´s, and i took 2 days! SICK.!

 

Now i will try from the start again.!

 

i have utorrent on my PC, and i works fine. Download and upload.

 

Can it be my firmware on the NAS.? is a 1.40.?

: Re: Bittorrent download problems!
: chankartat January 10, 2011, 03:03:46 AM

No it's not the firmware v1.40 on the NAS causing utorrent download problem. I can confirm this because my linkstation ls-wxl is on v1.40 and was on v1.37, both versions downloading fine.

 

I traced back your original posting, you seem to be only forwarding port9090. Forwarding port9090 only allows you to remotely access the uTorrent WebUI. You also need to forward the port number configured in uTorrentWebUI->Preferences->Connection. Also, you need to disable/uncheck "Randomize port" under that screen.

Hi again

 

Just a little info to the all you bittorrent people :

 

The issue for some NAS stations ( including Buffalo linkstation ) is that they can't run Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) the issue can be solved on some trackers by contacting admin on the current tracker, he may be able to turn off SSL in your profile ..
So Buffalo please submit the SSL option to the torrent client ...!:smileysad:
