Hi. I am using Bittorrent and my torrent wont start downloading - there are heaps of seeders etc so its not that. We just got a new internet connection and a new modem could that be it? Please help! Thank you!

Try reading this article from the bittorent site.
It talks about port forwarding and UPnP to speed things up.
If your firewall is blocking the ports Bittorent is trying to use, that could be the problem.

hey... you said you have a new internet..
try setting the bittorren properties again...
or maybe your IP address settings has been changed
your IP address must match with the torrents settings
or just reinstall your bittorrent...
if it doesnot work well try other file sharing software..
(BEARSHARE)they have a free version on their site try it...
ok.. hav a nice day... ('',)

Try checking your installed firewall programs to see if they are blocking the software or the ports. Have you also try restarting the computer?

Maybe your share ratio is very low. Have you perhaps been leeching a lot more than you've been seeding?
