akatzbreaker Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Hello everyone, I recently discovered Bittorrent Sync and I want to use it to Sync Large files between many Machines I have. However, I have set up my Raspberry to run Bittorrent Sync, I have port-forwarded all the necessary ports on the Router, and I have added exceptions on IPTables to allow connections on the Ports of Bittorrent Sync. My problem is that if I try to sync files between my Laptop and my Raspberry when they are on Different Networks, the two devices don't find each other. I also tried having a one-time key but that didn't work as well. Could someone help me out here? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 What peer discovery options do you have enabled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akatzbreaker Posted October 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 How do I have to set these options? I don't really know how to do so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 They're in the folder preferences for your shares in the sync interface.In the web interface, they're on the general tab. On windows machines, they're on the properties tab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akatzbreaker Posted October 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 I use the Web Interface.I have set to use the UPnP Port mapping on port 5555, if that is what you mean... The Web Interface doesn't have any options about Peer Discovery though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akatzbreaker Posted October 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Ahh... I found out those settings you are talking about!! What should I do to find hosts over the Internet? Should I set Predefined Hosts?What if (for example) my iPhone's IP Changes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Make sure that at LEAST one of tracker server or dht is enabled.You might consider using relay when required as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akatzbreaker Posted October 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 I read that DHT is not Encrypted. Is that correct? (I have the tracker and relay options enabled...) I also set some External IP Addresses for my Home Computers and Apple Devices.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 The DHT and Tracker communications are ONLY for peer discovery, not for actual data transfer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akatzbreaker Posted October 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 OK! Thanks! It works! I connected my iPhone with my Raspberry from a Different network! I will also enable DHT now... Thank you so much!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
