Hi,

Have you configured your router's to port forward 9091?

This is required for remote access.

We've kept it simple, it avoids support calls from inexperienced users. Any user who wants to access their Torrent downloads from the internet should know how. Clue: We provided the port number we use in Preferences -> Torrents.

I'm not trying to be mean by not telling you how... people who lookup and research how to do something tend to learn and retain better

Cheers,
Roby!

Learn how to do port forwarding and static IP's on your router.

Give the stora a static (reserved) IP. EG 192.168.1.10

Then port forward 9091 to that address.

to access torrents remotely use http://STORANAME.mystora.com:9091

Obviously replace STORANAME with your stora's name.

A google search with your router's model will bring guides on how to do all of the above.


Transmission on Stora is great. I regulary access from work or my phone and things are ready by the time I'm home.

rereading this it's obvious what your issue is.

Use :9091 at the end of the URL.

http://NAME.mystora.com:9091
