utorrent is stuck on "connecting to peers"? - Grace <3 - 04-28-2014 05:50 PM
Everything was working fine last night. But today I try to download as usual but It just sits on "connecting to peers". I have tried several different torrents, from different websites. No new changes have been made to my computer or internet. I even left it while I went to work, came back and it was still "connecting to peers". Any ideas?
P.S I am aware that what I'm doing is illegal. so save the lectures for someone who cares

Howdy, often connecting to peers will get stuck if you literally cannot connect to anyone that is hosting the download. You may have a firewall issue or your ISP has blocked the common torrent venus. Restart your modem and try again.
If this doesnt work feel free to contact me at http://www.honestcanadian.com. There are a few other methods to get around ISP blocking.
Cheers and Good Luck

Try to update the tracker by right clicking on the torrent.
