most of the latest torrents seem to not be connecting.
the following trackers are getting could not connect
open.demonii.com
tracker.coppersurfer.tk
exodus.desync.com
tracker.leechers-paradise.org
zer0day.ch
are they down or is it because of the latest ddos attack vector that involves udp and it is suggested that isps turn off the udp?
all the trackers are udp and yes i tried http and still did not work
note to mods i could not find a proper place for this so i used general but you are welcome to move to correct forum if it is in the wrong place
thanks for the help

TPB doesn't use trackers anymore.
You need to enable DHT and 'peer exchange' if you haven't yet.
Usually the only ones that use trackers are private sites, and those have nothing to do with TPB.
But for the most part trackers are useless.

You could stop using Transmission, which sucks.

The seedbox has nothing to do with it. Just pick a torrent client you like. One that uses DHT, and then shut up.

thanks i found it i must of overlooked it but still i am getting connection errors and it is not able to get the files so i am having to use vpn as stopgap measure but it is not practical as i will use up my quota with my isp where as the seedbox is a buffer
update: it seems to be working ok now.
either coppersurfer had crashed and they rebooted or me deleting all the non functioning trackers fixed the problem.
i the other day enabled lpd to find more peers and that overrides the trackers and caused them all to be broken i disabled lpd and after more trial and error i got it working

I. No, some have moved domains and have not been updated, others have stopped or are down for repairs. DHT is your friend nowadays.
II. If Transmission does not work for you I would suggest moving to qBittorrent, just make sure DHT and the other discovery ways are enabled.
