Torrent Issues on Mac

Hello everyone,

I am looking to download Torrents on Mac (MacBook Pro 2020 on Catalina 10.17.7).

I use either Utorrent, Bit Torrent, or Transmission.

However, I am stuck because the downloads won't start (estimated time infinite, 0 B/s for both download speed and upload speed).

This happens on any torrent, regardless of the files used.

I suspect there is a problem with the settings on my Mac.

I am not a tech expert, but I believe it has something to do with the Firewall, but I haven't been able to solve the issue.

Thank you in advance,

Take care.

    Hello,

    You need to allow incoming connections in the firewall. Click on the lock, enter your password, and click the "Firewall Options" button on the right.

      Hello Axel,

      I had suspected that it could come from there, nevertheless it is already unchecked and allowed

        There are no images, so I can't see what they look like.

        Normally, it should be fine now.

        Just mark it as "Resolved" if the issue is fixed. Have a good day.

    I was saying it's good regarding the image. It was already like you suggested. Yet it's not working. Do you have any other ideas?

      I'm not an expert either and honestly, I don't know where the problem might be. If the Mac expert *_Francis_* comes by here, he can definitely help you.
