QBittorrent or Utorrent it's not seending
-
Besides the technical problems, where MrMazda is a real expert in, you do need to just a tiny little bit of mathematics in your brain. On the posted screenshot of seeding torrents i see at a first glance that there are a lot more seeders than leechers. Now 3 leechers have selection to download from 53 seeders. Depending on your settings for your client (max. No. of peers for a client and some other technical parameters) there comes one feature of the protocol into the game: clients will select seeders with the best upload speed so they can get the most in the shortest time. Unless you have a symmetric IN-connection your upload speed will usually be much smaller than your download speed (in Germany about factor 10). Taking that in account could often explain seeding problems.
Up to now we didn't mention the topic "hit and run" which sharpens the situation even more. Lastly I saw a member with 3TB download and only 200 seedbonus points. That is 400 hours of seeding for 3 TB download - ridiculous! Since many years I preach: download a torrent and seed, Seed, SEED! When you are ready seeding: seed some more!!! The time-restrictions for seeding time in some clients are just ridiculous: seed 1 hour after downloading :ROTFLMAO[nb]Rolling on the floor laughing my ass off[/nb]. I personally set my seeding time to at lest factor 3 (seeding amount 3 times file size) and I get a good ratio here on GT.ru without spending SBP for traffic.

I'm having this issue as well. I tried to do port forwarding, but my router doesn't have a port forwarding section in the internal settings. Am I screwed?
I seriously doubt this… Now, it may be that the port forwarding option is locked out to your provider, which I have seen before, but it is virtually impossible NOT to have a port forwarding option, unless there is no NAT between your local LAN and the internet, which is very unlikely.
I may be able to assist you with this a little more in depth, and perhaps assist you with poking around in your router.
Also, FWIW, if you're using a SOCKS4 or SOCKS 5 proxy server, it is very likely that the proxy itself is where your problem lies. If you are concerned about your privacy online, I would recommend a full VPN for many reasons. Simply put, it is a far superior method of protection, and it's a lot easier to get it working.
I've tried a VPN but it hasn't worked as well. What can I do now? I have a bunch of files to upload and seed but I can do it
My router doesn't have the port forward either.Every router has a port forwarding option. Depending on your provider and the equipment that the provided however, it may not be possible to access the port forwarding option.
As for the VPN option, you need to be using a VPN server that supports port forwarding, and you need to be using the port that the VPN forwards, unless you are using a VPN server that forwards all ports. If that's the case, simply turning on the VPN will bypass the problem, even if port forwarding is not enabled on your home network.
What VPN program has all these settings?

I am using Private VPN. Most of their servers only forward one port, which it will tell you about in the VPN app itself. There are a few VPN servers that they have however, which forward ALL ports through to your computer.
