If you can now open your bitcomet ports then it is mcafee at fault. what you need is the Mcafee removal tool (freely available from the Mcafee support site) run this tool and re-test. I use Mcafee and trust me, merely disabling the firewall will have no effect. If this fails, then it is either your ISP, bitcomet settings or Mcafee. If you don't have access to the router then perhaps someone else on your network does and you can try this step from there.Ģ. If it is all ok then you know the port is being blocked by the router. Rule out the router (if you have physical access to it) by connecting your computer directly to the modem, check your connection and if ok retry bitcomet and see if your port is open. I had similar problems, in my case it turned out to be Mcafee.ĭon't however jump to conclusions, I suggest you try the following.ġ. It's very possible that last agent doesn't know what a port is or how they work. You can still download, but you'll just be last in line every time so it will take much longer to find a peer that is eager to trade.īefore you switch providers you might want to call back and ask to be escalated to a higher level of support to confirm they do not provide a service that will allow you to receive incoming connection attempts. When someone wants to trade data they attempt to connect to you but cannot because you are blocked, then up to a half hour later you are notified that they have joined the swarm and you try to connect to them, but by now they already have as many connections as they can handle so your connection is refused. This is exactly how bittorrent connections work. This will work if you call anytime you need to talk, but if the person you're calling also has no ringer then you will never talk to them. What you have would be compareable to a phone without a ringer so no one can call you. You didn't state what type of connection you had so I was unable to determine this but if what your isp is telling you is true about not being able to open a port then I'd suggest going with another ISP, one that provides complete internet connections, but I wouldn't trust anything that agent said because if it was a trained support person he would not have told you it doesn't make a difference. This is common with cellular type broadband and connections that are shared like in a dorm room, or apartment building in some areas. Sounds like you don't have a full internet connection and cannot receive remote connections.
