    Sorry I dont know where to post this but I cant connect to Bitlord at all..are NTL blocking traffic? How do I get around this?..It was working fine last wednesday morning. but when I say fine I mean that I have watched my download times decrease from an hour to 5 hours even though there mite be 1000 or more seeders. can someone please help. I tried using bitcomet and enabling encrytpion but this doesnt work either. Is it just NTL who are traffic shaping ?:confused: :mad:

    Is anyone else having this problem or know anyway around this problem. I checked again this morning and thought maybe it was a freak occurance but its obvioulsy not. Are all ISP's blocking p2p traffic? My con tract is up in a week and there is no way im renewing it with NTL. :mad:

    Your router might be blocking the traffic.
    Try port forwarding:

    If you guys are using that white Netgear wireless router which Ntl supply, that is more than likely your problem.
