[solved]Do these trackers and DHT work for you?

For the last 2-3 days I cannot contact these trackers  tracker.openbittorrent.com, tracker.publicbt.com, tracker.istole.it tracker.ccc.de (and basically every series torrent from eztv.it) Torrent indexing sites not only show that these trackers are working they also show seeders/leechers stats. What gives?

Furthermore, I cannot connect to DHT, it shows 0 nodes. What is more frustrating is that on the same PC, with the same ISP line, with the same qbt version it worked flawlessly up until 2-3 days ago.

Torrents that use other trackers continue to work as expected.

I even tried ?torrent but I get exactly the same results.

Can you confirm?

(at mods, I didn't know where to create this topic. pls move it to the appropriate section)

As of this moment, openbittorrent and publicbt are still working for me. The other 2 never worked, perhaps I blocked them somewhere.

DHT is working as always.

Well I had tested these trackers with "is it down or it just me" sites and reported that they are down.
Out of frustration I rebooted my router(after months) and everything is normal. DHT and the afformentioned trackers work. Interestingly all the trackers that didn't work used udp:// and DHT uses udp connections. So probably my router couldn't handle more udp connections for some reason.

If those trackers listed were tested with the http protocol, their status would be down I think.

DHT is working very good and is always around 170-175 nodes, with qBt 3.0.8. Many http are not working, inactive or down maybe, compared to udp trackers. To be honest im not watching the trackers tab that often but ill take a look tomorrow to see if I get the same to confirm this.
