T-Mobile Doesn't Work - Then Works

I have been using T-Mobile for mobile wifi and was unable to connect peers. I found this post:

 

http://sync-help.bittorrent.com/customer/portal/articles/1592472-peers-aren-t-connecting

 

So, I connected to the net using a different provider and presto, peers connected and it worked right away.

 

Strangely, later that same day, after returning to my T-Mobile mobile wifi, I put more files into the folder and it synced up right away, in spite of the carrier.

 

Any explanation for this behavior?

 

Thanks - jmvp

Sync remembers the IPs of your peers for a while after you last connect.  It's possible that tmobile is blocking the connection to the central tracker, but since your peer already had the right address for the other peers, it was able to get to them.  

It's a bit of speculation on my part, but could explain the behavior.
