port range question

[jamesford]

just wondering about the port range in the deluge preferences. in azureus iirc i set up just one port, lets say port 44444, and i have this port forwarded in my router and stuff and all is well

in deluge it seems im supposed to set up a whole range of ports. should i set the deluge ports from 44444 to 44444 ? or should i open more ports in router?

ive currently got deluge from 44444 to 44444 and i must say its a LOT slower than azureus, and it seems im only able to connect to about 10% of the seeders/peers i can connect to in azureus

i think theres a bug, that when setting a port range from A to A, it uses A+1 instead.

try setting your range to 44443 to 44443 and see what happens. we're working to resolve the issue, and it should be fixed in the next stable release

EDIT: also, the project is like, three weeks old, give it some time to mature ;)

hey
thanks for quick reply. i appreciate its a brand new project, but its such an exciting one that ive been waiting for for a long time

your tip didnt seem to have much effect though. after 10 mins ive still only connected to ONE peer on a torrent that has several hundred seeders, the status bar says 1 connection (none incoming) - of all the torrents ive tried i still havent got a single incoming connection

but im sure deluge will be a great client in a bit

btw im runnig the version i downloaded from the trunk dir yesterday

thanks for the interest.

as for the quick reply, few people realize that i have absolutely no life, and live on these forums ;)

Have you tried doing a force update on the torrent? its the refresh looking button

and can you confirm what port deluge is using? deluge may report its port wrong, I simply don't know

[jamesford]

hey

forcing update has an effect actually, curerntly gone up from 1 to 27 connections - but noe incoming(but as i said, there are over 200 seeders alone on this torrent)
download speed is still terrible tho, not even 1 kbps

im not sure what u mean by confirming what port its using, in hte settings its 44443 (like u suggested) - the forwarded port is 44444, it makes no difference if i set it back to 44444 in the deluge settings

oh btw im runnig amd64 with corbelius' libtorrent thing or what it was called

i meant is there someway you can go on your router, and see which ports it's using? just as debug info

[jamesford]

ah, no i cant see anything like that in the router. however, if i start azureus while deluge is running, and both are set to use port 44444 azureus will complain that port 44444 is already in use, so i guess deluge is using the port it says its using

[kampsuniahv]

I hope that this is/will be fixed, because i only have access to one port.
I would also like to know why is there needed range of ports not just one?
Btw. Great work and keep it up.

Just an update. I was running into a similar issue using some of the earlier releases. I have one port forwarded for uTorrent on my XP installation. Tried using that port with Deluge under Ubuntu Dapper about a week ago and had poor transfer rates. Tried it again tonight using the exact port number for both fields and I'm getting well above 600kbps while downloading the Edgy alternate CD (28 seeds). Great work zachtib!
