Hey, I hope you all are doing well. Currently, I am using Deluge 2.1.1, it was working fine till yesterday. As of today, I am getting port issue error in the bottom right corner. Due to which I am unable to download anything , nor I can seed. I tried to solve this issues, but I failed.

Below are screenshot for much clarification:

You wont want to set random, you will want to set a specific port in the 6881 box, otherwise it will change everytime you start up and it will never be consistently forwarded in your router.

If you have a router, that specific port you choose (usually pic something above 10000) will need to be forwarded to your computers IP (192.168 for instance) and allowed in windows firewall (or whatever firewall you have)

After that, your port check should be good.

So I change the port from random to 6881 box. As we can see on this below screenshot

Now, it does not solve my problem, as router setting, I don't have access to it, only my internet vendor have the access to the setting. Also, I have allowed Deluge in Windows firewall. It does not work for me.

So first of all, you should choose a port other than the default torrent port of 6881 - like I said above 10000 - any port that's not used.

Secondly, if you can't forward your port in your router, there's not really anything you can do other than get a VPN that supports port forwarding.

You'll have to read up on the specific VPN providers configurations and stuff, that's not really something anyone here can help you with.

@ambipro , I have updated my Deluge to the newer version, it solves my issue. I don't know how.

The only thign I can think of is that It might be using UPnP is enabled on your router and that is taking care of the forwarding automatically when the port is requested.

Under Network I preferences is UPnP checked at the bottom?

Have you configure port forward in your router?
