Is it just me, or are the ubuntu iso torrent trackers having issues? http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download

A little more info. I have no idea what you mean by issues.

wasn't connecting to the tracker. Finally figured out it was a port forwarding issue. But the strange thing is that I was able to download the libreoffice and arch torrents.... odd.

Anyway. I know the issue now. Sorry for the semi useless thread. But, maybe someone else will run into this too.

It just threw me off, because the ubuntu torrents were the only ones having issues from my test so I didn't think it was a port forwarding issue so I just started opening everything up then it started working.

I'll have to come back to it and find out what actually fixed the issue. And close back what shouldn't be open.

If someone could explain why the ubuntu tracker didn't work while other trackers did I'm all ears :)
