"Connecting to Peers" for long time before torrents start downloading

[mmm102]

Hi, ever since I started using Torguard I am getting a weird thing happening where one or more torrents will be added and will say "connecting to peers" for a long time (sometimes a few hours) before beginning the download.

 

When the torrents finally do start, they all seem to start at once (if there are more than one).

 

I'm using uTorrent. 

 

Does anyone have the same problem or know what the problem might be?

 

Thanks.

Hey there, theres been quite a few reports of this happening in utorrent, seems to be utorrent specific. Do you have UTP rate limits disabled ?

 

Vuze does not do this.
