I have been running uTorrent 1.8.1 on an older box and I am shifting to a new one. I redid my router so NATting to the new box, it tests OK and I get the green light.

I copied all the torrents over and added them all and they are all uploading fine. However any download shows "Queued" indefinitely. As soon as I "Force Start" it it will begin downloading pretty much straight away. If I then "Start" it it will immediately stop downloading. You guessed it, "Force Start" will get it going again.

I don't do a lot of torrents, so I guess I can force them all, but clearly something's not right. Can anybody give me a hint on where to look, please?

Thanks

well i know under the settings (in non-webui utorrent its UI settings) there's an option to not start downloads automatically. check if that box is checked or not; it could be the problem

It might be hitting the limit of concurrent downloads. Try changing 'Maximum amount of active downloads' Its in Preferences > Queuing.
^ Yeh, also check to make sure they start downloading automatically

Thanks guys, it was the maximum active torrents setting. Can't recall what it was now, but the default must be pretty low. I remembered that I upped it on the old machine a while ago. I set it to 200 as I have about 160 torrents available.

Appreciate the quick and helpful responses!
