I have tried everything from clients bittorrent, utorrent, bitcomet, and more to browsers like opera and torch, to cloud based servers that download it for you and give you a download link.

I have tried this on wireless and wired connections I have turned off firewalls and vpn services but nothing has worked. If this is all the work of comcast they are doing one hell of a good job, but please help. I'm am not asking why this is happening but an explanation of why would be appreciated if you can also solve the problem.

Bitcomet also metioned something about a listening port being blocked and would it be unsafe to download a torrent from some website like bitlet or fuge on a school wireless connection. In this case, disabling it will likely let the torrent client downloads go through:. Lastly, since torrent connections are often unsafe, your antivirus could proactively block them as well. By the way, scanning your Mac for viruses and other malware spyware, adware, etc.

And the best way to do it is by using CleanMyMac X. CleanMyMac X is a truly powerful Mac optimizer packaged in a dead-simple and intuitive interface. This utility will help you delete old files, clean up your hard drive, speed up your Mac, enhance your privacy, and find any malware with just a single click.

You can also simply go for a Smart Scan and get a full report on how your Mac can be instantly improved. Most torrent clients today have a download limit option that could be enabled by default. Increasing this limit might help with the torrent not downloading files properly. If so, it could have something to do with torrent connection issues. In general, your torrent speed is affected the most by the number of peers who are seeding the torrent file to you.

Normally, when you find a torrent file online, it will tell you how many people are seeding it at the moment. If you see that the number is considerably lower during the download, you can try to pause and start the download, or even delete your current torrent file and try to do the whole process again from the torrent website.

In some cases, the problem could be with the torrent client itself. Whenever a user downloads the preferred torrent files, other users can track your IP address and, in turn, your downloading activities.

Another significant drawback of using public trackers is ISP throttling and copyright issues. Thus, torrent users should use a reliable VPN to gain maximum protection and security while using public torrent trackers.

As the name implies, private torrent trackers are not for everyone. They are only available for communities and have rules to get access to the private trackers. You either first need to get registered on their site or can access them via invites.

The registered user gets a limited number of invite codes which they use to invite others. To use private trackers, you have to upload and download the torrent files.

If your download exceeds your uploads, you can get banned. For this reason, private trackers provide blazing fast torrent downloading speed. Moreover, private torrent trackers are reliable and safe to use. You need an invite to get into the private tracker site. This prevents everyone from monitoring your IP address and port of the torrent client.

The private trackers consist of high-quality torrents. If someone finds an infected torrent file, they can report it, which leads to file deletion. Also, the person who uploads the bogus torrent file gets banned. Thus, for all such reasons, private torrent trackers are more recommended to use. A torrent tracker list allows users to add more peers and seeds who upload the torrent file.

More people who can send you bits and pieces of the file increase your overall download speed. You can also manually update your tracker list by manually adding the trackers to any torrent clients. Adding trackers to the torrent tracker list is relatively easy. Start new topic. Recommended Posts.
