Such a solution will be extremely reckless, since the torrents today are the most popular, fast and reliable way to get the necessary content absolutely free. One has only to spend a little time to study the structure of this service and its capabilities will pleasantly surprise you. Well, we, in turn, will try to help you as much as possible.
What is a torrent and how does it work?
- Before proceeding to the study of terminology, it is extremely important to figure out what a torrent is. As above has already been said, this is a service for changing files on a network between a user group that uses piring protocol (P2P). This term means the equality of users.
- For example, you have a new film or a useful program that will be in demand among a large number of users. Instead of pumping a file to the file organizer server and then post a link on the network to it, you open access to it for other users who can take it directly from your computer. The user who loaded the file, in turn, also becomes for the distribution, and other users will be able to partially pick up directly from him. Thus, a peculiar chain of users is created, and the larger there are, the faster the speed of downloading the file will be.
Figure 1. What is a torrent and how does it work?
- For the most part, torrents acquired their popularity due to the ability to load programs, games and other content for free, which is sold in stores for decent amounts. In addition, on torrents you can find unique author's developments and non -standard “repaki” (converted programs). All this software is placed on special forums, which are called in common people " trackers". It is thanks to such forums that the torrent service itself functional.
The process of loading content through these forums is carried out using specialized torrent files that contain a link to the distribution and serve as a user coordinator.
What are sites, feasts and faces in torrent?
- As we have already found out earlier, torrents are a web of users who exchange files directly. These users are divided into two main groups - feasts and sIDS.
- Feasts (peer) - this is a group of users who are currently connected to the distribution and are in the process of downloading files. During downloading, they simultaneously distribute the pieces of the final file (data packages) already available to them.
- SIDS (seeder) - this is the group of users who have already managed to download all the files and remained on their distribution.

- There is also a third group of users who are found on some torrent trackers. They are called lych. This group includes those users who began to download the file, but at some point interrupted the download without pumping it to the end. Thus, they have only part of the packages (pieces of the final file) that are distributed to other users.
- For example, if you started downloading a file size in 20 GBbut put the process of loading a pause when they only downloaded 5 GB from the total volume, you automatically go into the category lich And you begin to distribute the part that you already have. In this case, these are loaded 5 GB.
What does the inscription "Connection to the feasts" mean and what to do when it occurs?
- Very often during the start of downloading a particular file, in a torrent client, instead of a line with the course of the download process, users see the inscription " Connection to feasts". Above, we have already told what feasts are and what function they perform. However, in this case, feasts mean all user categories that distribute files (feasts, sids, faces).

- Most often, such an inscription appears when there is no user who can download it on the file distribution of the file. In this case, the solution to the problem is obvious. You need to wait when users are connected to the distribution, or find the file you need on another torrent tracker.
It also happens that the appearance of such an inscription is associated with problems in connecting. The connection to the feasts is carried out through network ports, which are automatically generated by a torrent client. Sometimes these ports are closed or overloaded, which leads to the appearance of the inscription " Connection to feasts". To solve this problem, take the following steps:

If the setting of a torrent client did not help, then the reason, almost certainly, lies in your Internet provider. The fact is that torrents are an illegal source of obtaining paid content absolutely free, which is considered a violation of copyright. The country's authorities are trying to fight piracy and close torrent trackers. They do this by contacting providers so that they block unwanted addresses.

Another reason can be viruses on your computer that impedes normal work DNS servers. Thoroughly scan your computer with several anti -Russians and try to “cure” the infected files found. If the virus has already managed to get deep enough, then it will not succumb to treatment and the only way to get rid of it will be complete formatting of the hard disk and reinstalling the operating system.
