Download and install NordVPN for your chosen device.Sign up for a NordVPN subscription here.Make sure you have checked all the boxes as shows below.Now from the left options panel, click on Connection and from the drop-down menu, select Proxy.From left options panel, select Mode and under ‘User Proficiency’ select Advance (so that you can access additional settings).Launch Vuze and then go to Tools to access Options.(Again, this port is different, and is supposed to be different, from the port reported when you mouse-hover PIA icon in menu bar.To make Vuze safe with a proxy, just follow these steps: Inbound test failed, timed out.Īnd yet, on ( ) it reports that port 43584 on my Proxy IP is "Open". Sending outbound packet and waiting for reply probe (timeout=15000) Sending outbound packet and waiting for reply probe (timeout=10000) Sending outbound packet and waiting for reply probe (timeout=5000) (Error: Unexpected end of file from server) Unable to test: Invalid port given, or test service failed.Īnother application may already be using this port.

Running Vuze NAT/Firewall Test (on 43584, the port installed by the VPN plugin): Testing port TCP 43584. Vuze statuses, at the bottom, show: Routing: (green, "Bindings 10.42.10.8, Force=Yes, Connections: 10.42.10.8 - in=0, out=6")įirewalled: (red, "Firewall/NAT (TCP) reachability problem.") Use same proxy settings for tracker and peer In Vuze Preferences | Connection | Proxy: Enable proxying of tracker communications And, yes, the Vuze listening port is different from the port visible when you mouse-hover over PIA icon- but its supposed to be that way.) (This plugin took care of setting the Incoming Listen Port in Preferences | Connection, as well as setting Bind to Local IP address in Preferences | Connection | Advanced Network Settings. UDP outbound - Outbound test failed, UDP disabled for anonymous updates ✔ Found bindable address /10.42.10.8 on utun0 (utun0) which is likely VPN's local IP In Plugins | Log Views | VPN Helper, get this as final result: ✔ Vuze UDP is currently bound to /10.42.10.8 aka utun0 (utun0) Then, restart Vuze (might also have had to restart PIA?) This took a lot of wrangling for this to work.

When I hover mouse over PIA icon in Mac menubar, it indeed shows a forwarding port: eg, "You are connected (Germany Berlin) - (#.#.#.#) " I made sure to connect to one of the 11 PIA connections that is "Port Forwarding Enabled" (PIA Settings | Manage Favorites) eg, Canada, France, Czech. Local Port (did nothing, I left it blank, experimented with inserting the Vuze listening port and RPC port- it didnt help) In PIA Advanced Settings: Connection type: udp My installation process was a little rocky, but I'll try to recapitulate everything I did: It would be nice not to have to restart Vuze every time I add a torrent.

#NAT ISSUES IN VUZE FOR MAC UPDATE#
Neither R-clicking on torrent, selecting Tracker/Torrent | Update Tracker (nor scraping) has any effect. I have to restart Vuze, and then it immediately shows seeds/peers. when I load a popular torrent, it invariably has 0/0 seed/peers and will stay that way, indefinitely. Secondary issue: often 0 seed/peers when loading popular torrent. (So, the underlying issue is a failure of port forwarding? I do have the red "Firewalled" status, and Vuze does fail the NAT/Firewall Test on Vuze's listening port.) However, with torrents of 3-5 seeders, those remote connections really matter. With robust multiple-seeder torrents, I have no problem (since the local connections suffice). Its been working reasonably for a few weeks.
