Download station - no d/l progress

[GuyM]

Hi, for a few days ago my download station package seems to not be downloading anything
The tasks all look ok and say downloading but no progress is being made on any
What do i need to check on and are there known issues?
I am a newbie so not a lot of techie experience
Thanks

Public or private tracker?

Have you tried to download something that you know works? Like an Ubuntu ISO image for example?

Could it be that your tracker is not registering you or simply that there is no seeds?

I was trying to d/l a couple of films from Yts.com And directed it via DSGET To the nas download station...

Well consider answering as many questions as possible. Apart from the pirated content, have you tried anything else via Download Station?

 

[GuyM]

No...not yet

Ok considering this is not a chat, but a discussion board. Try several downloads apart from torrent and/or public torrents that do work, and report back.

This might be one that works 100%:

Ubuntu 19.10 Desktop (64-bit)

Ok

 

[Rusty]

Ok

As I said, this is not a chat. Do not reply to every single thing in a post. Make a useful post that contains several useful information.

@Rusty is right. Go to the Ubuntu site and dload the .torrent file, add it and check the Tracker in Download Station (don‘t rely on DS Get).

Hi guys, i just installed my first ever NAS and have problem with torrents. Like some1 said, i tried ubuntu file and it was ok but other torrents do not start downloading. Is there anything I can do?

if it's a private tracker could be a custom port that it is in use. Check that and open up a port on your router and/or reconfigure the port on Download Station side to be compliant with the tracker.

Shouldnt it be ok on router side if torrents are downloading normal on my pc? I have no idea how to check port for tracker

ok, so i've opened ports 6881:6889 for synology on my router. But it doesnt help. Changed Port dht udp and tracker status changed
but the first one is still showing some kind of error

so comparing the images, looks like ports that you have opened did help, but not completely. Still, something blocking traffic. You might call your ISP, maybe they are filtering some P2P traffic.
