Intermittent tracker connection error

[dsouvik215]

Hi, i'm having a small issue with rutorrent gui,

i noticed this intermittent Error :

Tracker: [Couldn't connect to server]

however the tracker that it cries about not being able to connect, gets stats updates(up/down speeds, seeding time etc.) without issues.
i've ran netcat against against announce port and see no issues.

any suggestions on a possible fix ?

Maybe the tracker is blocking you for some reason. Find support from the tracker's staff.
