Bit Torrents Won't Work Anymore, How can I fix it? I used to use my neighbor's Wi-Fi, but now I have my own Internet which is faster. The only problem is that ever since I started using my own Wi-Fi, when I use torrents to download music, it doesn't work. If I use Bittornado it says problem connecting to tracker. If I use Bitlord it says no incomming connections. Its really pissing me off because I haven't been able to download music quickly. When I used my neighbor's it was super slow but it worked. Even if the darn torrent has like 100 seeders and comments saying that the torrent is good, it just won't work. I looked on google for help but all I hear is stuff about ports and crap. First off, what the hell is a port? I already tried turning off Windows Firewall and it didn't work. What can I do to fix this? Its really pissing me off. There is ALWAYS something. My old connection sucked and it took hours to download, now I have a better connection and I can'y download any torrents. Once in a blue moon it will work.

A port is a plug or cable connection (Hardware)
Make sure your plug is properly inserted in the USB slot which either in front of in the back of your computer. Turning off firewall isn't going to fix the problem, It sounds like it is a problem with the connection.
Also, One other thing besides the question....
Bit torrent, Limewire, Frostwire, Bearshare etc. All now have tracking devices tracing illegal downloads, Either or their sites are being shut down. A few months back they shut down Limewire and as far as I know Frostwire is still available but with tracking downloads. Sure, You may not get caught because there a a shit load of people that download everyday but it is extremely risky. Using your neighbors connection to do these things is also risky.....If your neighbor were to ever get caught it could eventually get around to the person who was using the connection.
