Using uTorrent, AVG VPN and AVG Internet Security.

Started downloading a few sports torrents last week, was working well initially. 5-6 torrents at ~550MB downloaded and started seeding. Went on holiday a few days.

Now the torrents aren't working, and I can't download more.

I added uTorrent to the Allowed Apps, but did not make a difference.

I realised my ratio was low, and the site I was using making you non-Connectable if your ratio is low, so I donated to get above that threshold again and I've added trackers for torrents listed as "free" (they don't impact your download GB but add to your upload GB if you seed).

I tried changing the VPN that AVG gives me, but no change.

Not really sure what else I can do - why would my DHT be waiting and why would it be doing this now when it was fine 3-4 days ago?
