Transmission

IF Transmission would actually even connect to peers. I'm not connected to a single leecher in the swarms of some finished downloads, even though there are plenty.

Checked all settings again, and they're fine.

24 Leechers. I'm now finished and should be superseeding and nothing is going out though there's only a dozen seeders.

Drat!
My ratio's about to die. The most peers I got upload-time to was 1, at about 15 KB/s. 9 peers in the swarm with 50% or less and it won't upload to any though I've got 72% and some are interested.

But why wouldn't Transmission be sharing with others in the presence of a large swarm where perhaps only a quarter have 100%?

I'm using Transmission 2.3.1 but the problem didn't just appear with the current version.

I've checked my network, firewall, and router settings several times. With virtually any torrent, I can download at terrific speeds but my ratio gets slaughtered because essentially nothing ever goes out. Even ...

No change with 1.5.2.

Cannot get the port to read as open though both DSL router and OS X Firewall are set correctly.

(Mac Pro 1.1 - OS 10.5.6 - Qwest/2Wire Router)

I've never gotten the port open.

I got one torrent to work. I even seeded to a 1.92 ratio, though the software was running for about 15 minutes before any data started to flow.

Right now, the app has been running for over 40 minutes and not a byte has been transferred. Could it be something to do ...
