the answer to this problem in general is NAT hole punching, but BitTorrent doesn't actually have an answer to your problem. if you are behind a NAT, you can only connect to peers that are not behind a NAT or have port forwarding set up. for popular torrents this is good enough because you don't have to connect to all peers. > This is possible with port forwarding. But that's a niche set of peers, who have the power to configure port forwarding on a NAT proxy. yes it's niche but I guess this means BitTorrent isn't as P2P in practice as one wants it to be, but held up by seedboxes. |
