To me it looks like uTorrent is utilizing another service on my computer to connect through, because I intentionally blocked it. Yet, I'm connected and downloading from at least 1-10 peers. Allowing incoming connections for uTorrent. The other fixes are: Port forwarding incoming connections. You can only stop being stuck with a dead torrent by downloading from another one. I'm getting this error message:Īn attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions.ĭHT, Peer Exchange and Local Peer Discovery are all turned off. Here’s how to fix the error no incoming Internet connections in uTorrent: First of all, you can’t fix a dead torrent. UTorrent cannot establish a connection to the trackers.

however, after a while (or if I just open uTorrent without being connected to a VPN) uTorrent connects to peers, even though I specifically blocked the inbound/outbound connections in Windows Firewall. The peers and downloading/uploading INSTANTLY dropped. I tested this by opening uTorrent whilst connected to my VPN and then disconnecting the VPN. I told Windows Firewall to block for all data on my local and wireless connections - and only allow data through remote (which is VPN-connections). As a method of preventing this (if any other good solutions, please shout out), I made some inbound/outbound rules in my Windows Firewall. I daily use a VPN-service to protect my IP and lately it's been very unstable, causing it to disconnect and therefore revealing my IP when uTorrent reconnects to the peers on my own address.
