BitComet - Status Light
Size: Large, Medium, Small Thu Oct 18, 07 10:00 AM | Category: Help
6206
 

There are 3 status lights in the right-bottom corner of BitComet software GUI. “Status light” mentioned in this passage refers to the third light, “BT Client Connection Status” light.

 

未命名-1

 This status light alternates within 3 colors, green, gray and yellow. Each color has its own meaning. 

 

1.       Green green
 

A green light means everything is perfect with your client connections. Your BitComet can communicate with other BT clients fluently and the download has a higher speed than any other status. 

2.       Gray  gray

 

A gray light means your client can not reach other clients. Your client has to get data from other clients to continue the download which means you can not download anything with BitComet under this condition.

 

There might be several reasons which will cause this situation. (I can not imagine all the reasons. Forgive me if there is any one missed. )

 

  • Your internet connection is broke down. Please check your cable line, network card….
  • Your BitComet has been blocked by your system firewall. Click here to check and configure the settings.

3.       Yellow

A yellow light means your client can reach other clients but other ones can not reach your client. Your can still download with BitComet in this case, but your speed can not be as high as in green light status.

The most possible reason of a yellow light status is that your pc is in an intranet. So you have to configure a NAT (Network Address Translation) for BitComet listening port on your gateway. Another reason is the firewall used by your system or your ISPs system blocked this port.

wendy_trannybabe Mon Mar 3, 08 10:53 PM

going to www.portforwarding.com seems to be the best and easiest way to fix the blocked ip yellow light thingy i have a zyxel router that has built in fire wall and i was able select my router from the list then follow the instructions the only bit i found hard to find was my service providers dns server name i found it by searching yahoo for service provider name and dns server address example searched irish broadband dns server name and i found it it took me about two hours to work through the instructions on portforwarding.com but well worth the effort my download speed has increased x 25 times what it was its now downloadind at the same speeds as from a website download link if you wanna email me feel free bye

gorillaface Mon Mar 31, 08 07:33 AM

Hi, I recently upgraded Bitcomet to version 1.00 but before trying it out also installed SP1 for vista. Now I constantly have this yellow light and am limited to only local seeds. My download speeds are very up and down. Sometimes they go over 200Kb which I am quite happy with but at others they will be down near Zero.

I went through all the rigmarole of setting the listening port on the router months ago and that was sure a hassle, but now I have all of that set up and everything was going well until I made these upgrades.

Does anyone know what the root of my problems is? Some folk suggest it is the new Bitcomet that is causing the problems, others say it is vista sp1. Hopefully this will be solved in time by some clever boffin but for the time being I am just getting more and more frustrated and confused.


Antariksh Sun Apr 6, 08 02:33 AM

hi all.. i have got a problem.. please help. my download speed is very less and then i observed the yellow light on the status bar.. this shows that there is some problem that i have to configure the NAT settings bt i dont understand this thing.. can anybody help me please????


KidBoy1 (KidBoy) Sat Apr 12, 08 09:17 AM

nush ce sa fac


oning_mmc (oning) Fri Apr 18, 08 12:16 PM

hey guys...i need your help...im experiencing yellow light and indicates that my listening port is blocked,another thing is, bitcomet tells me from the start that Windows XP SP2 has HALF Open TCP connection that is lowering my speed, when i checked it its at 10...there is an instruction on what to do but it also says that "do this if you know what you are doing". crazy huh? of course i could have fixed it if i really know what im doing, but i dont...guys please help me...you can reply here or send message at my YM ron_o4o1, and thats letter "O" not zero...thanks guys!!!


ahg2b Sat Apr 26, 08 01:03 AM

to fix the blocked BT Connection you go into your options and then connection and write down your listen port (usually 5 numbers) then you access your router and open that port (if linksys router you will want to start and end that port number) save your settings and then recheck you should have a nice green dot....


ahg2b Sat Apr 26, 08 01:12 AM

For anyone having issues with the BT Connection Being Yellow.. Here is the fix!

1) That guide is complicated. Go to the options in bitcomet. Find your listen port number and write it down.

2) Open your browser and type your default gateway number into the address line. Type your username and password for your router. Find TCP & UDP connections (just browse all the tabs to find it). Type in the IP address of the computer you are using to download files as well as the listen port number from bitcomet that you wrote down earlier in the appropriate spaces. Save changes.

3) Open Bitcomet or if its already open Right click the yellow dot and click check again


cross1420 Thu May 1, 08 05:52 PM

OK I first tried portforward.com with no luck I still have yellow light.

Then i tried PeerGuardian 2 and still no luck.

Then i tried ahg2b method i even called up net gear to walk me through it to make sure i was doing it right. I don't see how it can be this hard.

Does my anti virus have anything to do with it? I have Kaspersky when i first got it i had trouble with it but then it was all good untill i got my damn router.

I'm not sure what else to do i tried so many different things and no luck. will someone email me at cross1420@cox.net or im me at curtiscrossley@hotmail.com plz help im going crazy. lol


cross1420 Thu May 1, 08 07:00 PM

well i figured it out ha ha

i am not sure what i did wrong the first time maybe i left bit comet open or something but i'm all green now

i used www.portforward.com helped me out good luck all you yellow lighters
