Peers call client machines participating inthe process of downloading and sharing files when downloading from torrent trackers. Connecting to peers is a connection method as if to a mirror server, which at the moment is a user terminal, on which a part of information is located. But sometimes the number of distributing machines may decrease (for example, when the user has loaded the data and stopped the distribution). In this case, you can wait long enough. Connecting to feasts may not be done for a number of reasons. They may simply be absent. But the parameter settings play an important role.
What are peers?
But first, let's look at the theoretical part.The use of any torrent tracker and the corresponding download program (for example, BitTorrent or uTorrent) implies the presence of so-called download mirrors, which can be found in ordinary applications that are generally classified as Downloader.
In other words, the user uploads information.not from one server directly, but uses several resources for this with downloading parts of the source material. In the case when the connection to the peers is made, the request is made not to the servers on the Internet, but to the users' local machines on which the information is even partially downloaded. But often the problem may lie precisely in the settings.
Why does he write “There is no connection to the feasts”?
When a similar message appears, many users believe that it only indicates that there are no distributing machines in the network. This is not true.
First of all, you need to clearly realize thatTorrent trackers are considered portals containing pirated content, and programs are considered software. Such applications can be blocked at the system or antivirus level. The same “Windows Defender” or firewall may have automatic settings that do not allow downloading content from “doubtful”, in their opinion, sites.
No connection to the feasts: what to do?
The very first thing to do is justrestart the program or even the system. The second step is to restore to the point of rollback, if everything worked before the problem occurred. The third step is to check the number of peers on the tracker itself. The fourth step is to configure the network settings.
Finally, if that doesn't work, but the program is allequally does not determine the connection to the feasts, it is quite possible that the problem lies precisely in its settings. For a start, you can try to “deceive” the provider by enabling protocol encryption in the settings and simultaneously deactivating the IP filter, which can significantly increase the number of potential addresses from which distribution is performed.
On the other hand, the problem may bethat the receiving port is simply not configured. Therefore, instead of the standard port, you need to specify any other port in the program, for example, specified in the default web browser settings. In the case of downloading via Media Get, this works.
Connection to the peers may not be available yet.because the network settings are incorrect. However, as practice shows, the problem is security. There will have to try to disable all Windows and antivirus tools. If the download is working, you will need to add the address of the site to the list of exceptions of the antivirus, and the torrent program - to the list of firewall rules.
The result
In general, the problem is solved enoughsimply. However, when a user downloads a dozen links at the same time, the download priority may be violated. Here you will need to set the maximum speed only for the object that you need to download in the first place, and the lowest priority for all others. If you have a low-power computer or a low connection speed, it is not recommended to set absolutely all downloads to the maximum.
And along the way, you need to look at the protocol settingsThe internet. As a rule, the provider itself provides automatic installation of parameters. You need to look to get the IP or DNS addresses set automatically. If the problem is still present, you should pay attention to the use of a proxy for local addresses (it should be disabled). Well, it goes without saying that you should thoroughly delve into the settings of the torrent applications themselves and pay attention to the status of the link in the tracker.
