Torrents wont work?

[GEE_911]

Help i have been downloading torrents perfectly till yesterday, now whenever i try to download one, this is what happens (on both my macs) it just hangs on download speed: 0.0kbps....

Is there a way to upload a pic from my mac, so i can show you exactly whats happening?

ISP?

 

[GEE_911]

I tried multiple clients, and torrent sites and none want to work... My isp is MWEB, running 4mbs uncapped

Most ISPs have been impacted by the Seacom downtime today. MWeb have redundancy but they will definitely throttle torrents on their SAT-3 link while Seacom is down.

yes your torrents is blocked until seacom is back, at least you have internet access

heh, wanted to say even with DPI you (they) can't totally block p2p. i'd guess they're filtering the known open trackers.
