Hello, I login to Pedro's, I browse torrents and in my profile I am shown as connectable, that my status is unlimited and my share is fine; I even have an invite.

But when I download a torrent and open it in Azureus the tracker status is: Error - Not Authorized - IP Ban.

Am I banned or not?

You probably got banned, get a seedbox.

HE said a seedbox as it would provide you with a new IP .. It seems that your IP has been banned fow watever reasons but not ur account ..
So you can either go to the IRC and explain the situation or change ur IP/..
But since u have static IP u can get a new IP either by requesting your ISP or you cud go for a seedbox as it wud give u a new IP ..

your ip banned or account(with ip) banned? which1
if your ip banned send pm to staff and (you are saying i have static ip) so they will help you ...

Is my address blacklisted?

The site blocks addresses listed in the PeerGuardian (http://phoenixlabs.org/) database, as well as addresses of banned users. This works at Apache/PHP level, it's just a script that blocks logins from those addresses. It should not stop you from reaching the site. In particular it does not block lower level protocols, you should be able to ping/traceroute the server even if your address is blacklisted. If you cannot then the reason for the problem lies elsewhere.

If your account banned donate tracker :rolleyes: they will re-active

I don't think I a in the peer guardian blocklist, as I download from all other trackers without problem. Also I donate to some trackers occasionally but not under these circumstances.
