Dear
I am currently experiencing difficulties when I want to download a torrent. Sometimes I can download multiple torrents with ease, but sometimes I can't download any torrent because I have some troubles with the tracker. I tried both Bittorrent and qBittorrent to download the torrents.
I always get the message "tracker: not working". I then tried to "update the trackers" but it doesn't help at all. I am wondering what I'm doing wrong?
Sidequestion: when I use qbittorrent I also download a lot of torrents "with mistakes" as qbittorrent tells me. Are these bad torrent files or?
For your info: I can still download like 400GB of torrents as I donated a lot to this site (my main account is JW01. I created this new account so I could post on the forum. For some reason I couldn't log in to the forum as JW01). I only wish i could download faster and easier. I use a VPN to download the torrents. Should I switch locations from time to time? is it possible that my Internet service provider blocked mma-torrents?
Thanks for the answers!
Kind regards
JW

I don't think the problem lies with my VPN because I use expressVPN. I switched countries (USA, the Netherlands, etc) and I still get the "not working" message for the tracker.
I also turned off my VPN and tried again (I tried to download the new DVD of Gordon Ryan) and I still get the message tracker not working. I don't understand what the problem is.

I switched off my kaspersky antivirus and now it's working. Thank you Dent!!!
Is it possible for me to allow traffic from mma-torrents but keep my antivirus on? I'm not that experienced with antiviruses and firewalls. I should look into it.
