Why am i getting "no incoming connections" on utorrent??

Question

Since i've had utorrent, that little triangle on the bottom status bar is yellow and when you move the mouse over it, it says, "No incoming connections. Unless this icon turns green, it could indicate a problem with your network configuration." Now...one would think since there are no incoming connections, i wouldnt be able to download anything. However, i can. And most of the time, the connections are pretty d**n good. So if i were to get that icon green, they would download EVEN FASTER. The way they're supposed to download. Does anybody know how to fix this??

P.S I have the recent updated utorrent. I'm not using a router but just your basic dsl Yahoo modem. HOW DO I FIX THIS WITHOUT USING A ROUTER?

Answer 1

well this happens if your utorrent port is being blocked by your dsl modem,try restarting your modem and see if your port is opened with the restarting.Otherwise manually change the port number t to something which you know is open  

Answer 2

read the stickies on the Utorrent forum.
