Transmission permission denied on model 104

Hi,

 

I have a problem with Transmission; everything start when I changed the Internet Provider.

I changed the DNS but when I start the download after few mb I receive the error: permission denied.

I am running the 2.82 version of Transmission and the firmware 6.2.5

 

Thanks

    You should try randomizing your port instead of using the default port. Some ISPs block traffic on specific ports. Don't use 6881-6889

      I tried, but nothing.

      I believe the problem is not the connection because the download start.

      Everything stop when reach 4 mb, it seems is not able to write on the disk but everything is set up in the correct way (it was working before the Internet Provider change)

        That of course suggests it is the connection.  

         

        Try installing a torrent program on a PC and see if that fails too.

         

        Also check to see if upnp is enabled on the router.

    Hi atai1960,

     

    Which DNS address or server have you added to your system? Make it 8.8.8.8 or your router gateway (IP) address and see if fixes the problem. Also, tell us where have you downloaded the transmission add-on (if it's on the get apps page or the available apps tab in the UI).

     

    Looking forward to your response.

     

     

    Kind regards,

      Hi BrianL, 

       

      Insert 8.8.8.8 on DNS address was the first thing done following another answer that I have seen here for the same problem. But di not works. I have downloaded the transmission add-on from the app page. 

      Thanks
