Listening Port Randomly Changing On Qnap


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Just upgraded btitorrent sync on my Qnap 469L nas and I noticed that when I go to preference ans set a listening port, it seems to randomly change when I access that page again. Anyone else notice this?  I have that specific port open on my router in order to use bT sync from remote locations.

Thanks GreatMarko,

 

I looked at my btsync.conf file and when I tried to change the the listen setting, that seemed to affect the web interface, and not the application listening port itself. So I had to add the line in the first section (in red) for "listening_port" : xxxxx, with no quotes around the port number. I also changed the use_upnp setting to false not sure if that would cause the port to randomly change.

 

 
{
  "check_for_updates" : true,
  "display_new_version": false,
  "use_upnp" : false,
  "listening_port" : xxxxx,
 
  "webui" :
  {
    "listen" : "0.0.0.0:14859",
    "allow_empty_password" : false,
    "directory_root" : "/share"
  }
}
