Having trouble with downloading - MikaelaArsenault - Jan 05, 2018

I’m trying to download 33 torrents, but all of them are either stuck at stalled, or just not wanting to download at all.

Do you have DHT & PEX enabled?

I don’t know what those two are or even mean. Sorry.

That depends on the client program you are using. Look for Preferences/Options, Network, you want something like this:

- DHT (the name is just that).
- Peer Exchange (or PEx, for short).

There may be better info on Wikipedia, I'm not an expert on IT.

What torrent client are you using?

No worries.

DHT: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_hash_table
PEX: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peer_exchange

Hopefully those articles will help.
