As many people know, in December 2015, access to Rutracker (rutracker.org) will be blocked on the territory of the Russian Federation. Leaving aside the legal aspects of this decision, in this article we will look at ways to bypass Rutracker blocking and learn how to access rutracker.org from Russia.

Bypass blocking of rutracker (rutracker.org) using browser plugins.

friGate

2.Give a name to your list of sites

3. Add the desired site to the list.

This is such a simple and functional plugin. Links for installing the friGate plugin to unlock root tracker:

Zenmate

Another great plugin that promises to provide access to blocked sites (and, of course, a root tracker) in one click. It is interesting because it allows you to select the country through whose proxy server you will access the site. Accordingly, it allows you to access sites that are accessible only to residents of certain countries (for example,).

The plugin is free, the premium version promises unlimited traffic and the highest possible speed, as well as an expanded list of proxies to choose from. The free version provides 500 MB of traffic per month and in this case (for viewing pages and downloading a torrent file from rutracker.org) this is quite enough.

Bypass blocking rutracker (rutracker.org) on ​​mobile devices

On mobile devices (Android, iOS), bypassing the root tracker blocking is also not difficult.

Access to root tracker on Android

The simplest thing is to use traffic saving mode in popular browsers Chrome, Opera, UC Browser, etc. In this case, your traffic will be compressed through a proxy server and, in addition to saving traffic, you will get access to rutracker (rutracker.org).

Go to your browser settings and look for something like “traffic reduction”, “data compression”, “traffic compression”. Enable this option and get traffic savings and access to rutracker.org (if you have a slow Internet, perhaps the pages will load more quickly).

You can also use the browser for Android JustVPN.AntiBan. The settings are simple and are described on the main page of the site. Service settings for iOS:

Go to the browser settings - Wi-fi - Click “i’ next to the network - Set the “HTTP proxy” to “Auto”, insert the link http://antizapret.prostovpn.org/proxy.pac

In general, these are the easiest ways to bypass blocking of rutracker (rutracker.org). If for some reason you are not satisfied with any of the methods described in the article, you can get more information in the article "

I hope you found the article useful =)

On November 9, 2015, the entire RuNet was rocked by the news that, by decision of the Moscow City Court, the largest Russian-language torrent tracker would be blocked for life RuTracker.org. What should ordinary Internet users do now? how to login to Rutreker?

I want to say right away that nothing terrible happened: they were expecting it, they were preparing for it. Bypassing the blocking of any site (including a torrent tracker) is not at all difficult.

Firstly: remember, that RuTracker.org is not the only torrent tracker on the Internet. There are hundreds of such resources: popular and not so popular. Banning and blocking them all is practically impossible. Therefore, if you need to download something urgently, you can simply search on another torrent tracker.

Secondly: you can be sure that the creators of Rutreker will do site mirror(or maybe more than one). For example, the developers of another popular torrent tracker did the same Rutor.org. If we type the address of this site into the address bar of the browser, we are automatically redirected to another address. But outwardly nothing changes - exactly the same Rutor opens (only with a different domain name).

It is important that you are redirected to official mirror. To do this, type the address in the address bar without errors: rutracker.org. Otherwise, you may end up on some “left” mirror, where your account password may be stolen or there will be distributions with viruses.

As you understand from the title, a method will be described here that will help you use the services of the RuTracker.org website. Many users like to download something from a torrent, including me. There are many programs that I sometimes download from there, but I was struck by the news that by a court decision the ruttracker website was blocked. Now users are looking for ways to bypass the block and here you will find how to bypass the root tracker block.

The owners of RuTracker themselves shared ways to bypass the blocking, let’s begin to analyze these methods.

Using DNS Servers

In order for you to be able to access the torrent tracker website, you will need to change the DNS server of your provider. Can be replaced with public ones, such as Google Public DNS. We need to enter the following addresses in the router settings: 8.8.4.4 And 8.8.8.8 .

Tor Browser

This browser is able to protect you from Internet censorship, as well as traffic analysis by all sorts of intelligence agencies. This utility is a Firefox browser that has a built-in encryption feature.

Now download Tor and this Vidalia Standalone utility and unpack them somewhere, but so that they are in one place. Now we perform the following steps:

• Run Vidalia.exe
• In the settings you need to specify the path to Tor.exe
• Next, select "Start Vidalia when my system starts"
• Save and launch Tor
• Now you need to uncheck "Show this window on startup"

Now you can use the popular torrent tracker.

In addition, you can simply use the Tor browser to access the resource. Therefore, the manipulation described above is optional.

friGate browser extension

So, according to many users and root tracker owners themselves, you can download the browser extension. This way we will be able to access blocked resources. At the same time, the speed when working with other sites does not decrease and everything works fine.

First, install the extension in your browser if you don't already have it. I think you won't have any difficulties with installation. Make sure the plugin is enabled.

Setting up friGate

As I said, you need to make sure the plugin is enabled. If this is the case, but the required pages still do not load, then right-click on the extension icon and select "Options". Now add a new list to which you need to fit rutracker.org And *.rutracker.org. This extension is available for almost all known browsers.

Using Opera Turbo

The Opera browser has a nice feature called Opera Turbo, which allows you to bypass blocking. In the beginning, of course, this was not what this function was intended for. Below you will see screenshots of how to enable this feature in Opera.

Setting up the uTorrent program

Now we will make a few settings, you should do the same.

1. Launch the uTorrent program
2. Go to "Settings", then press "Configuration"
3. Go to "Compound" and to the section "Proxy server" enter what is shown in the screenshot.

Setting up the Google Chrome browser

In order for you to be able to use the root tracker, we will make several settings in Chrome.

• Download and install the plugin Proxy SwitchySharp
• Now click on the extension icon that appears and click "Auto Switch Mode"
• Go to Option
• Next, do everything done in the screenshots

• Save the settings by clicking Save

Thus, we will go to the rucracker website through the Tor browser, but we will go to all other resources as usual.

Using Anonymouse

Regular anonymizers can help you access almost any blocked resource. Rutreker is no exception. In this case, we just need to enter the desired address and the anonymizer gives us a proxy through which we can easily use the blocked site. At the same time, you don’t need to install anything, a very easy way.

Using Ninjacloak

This is another anonymizer that will allow you to use blocked sites, but it does not always work.

Using Zenmate

This is a plugin that can encrypt traffic outgoing from the device you are using and thus allow you to view blocked sites. You just need to register on the official website. There is also a service called Hola, but it is better not to use it because they will be able to view unpleasant things from your Internet address.

We'll leave it at that. As you can see, there are quite a lot of methods, but it’s not a fact that all of them will work for you, if the first method doesn’t work out, try the second, and so on.

You can also use a VPN to access blocked sites. Read about it in the link.

As is known, January 25, 2016 Roskomnadzor, based on the decision of the Moscow City Court “on the lifelong blocking of RuTracker.ORG on the territory of the Russian Federation,” ordered Russian providers to block access to the resource.

A lifetime block of Rutracker.org will not lead to the liquidation of the resource. It’s just that your providers have received an order to block access to RuTracker for their clients and, according to current legislation, they are obliged to do this.

Since the tracker is used by a huge number of users and many of you are little familiar with methods of bypassing restrictions, we have prepared an extended series of articles with examples and visual screenshots of how to do this!

Can anyone find out that I visited blocked resources?

Some plugins like Hola, Zenmate collect data about the websites you visit. And we do not recommend installing them in your browser.

Also, information about the sites you visit is stored in your browser history.

If you don't want the browser to save them, go to private mode.

Using Third Party DNS

Your provider's DNS servers may contain deliberately false domain to IP address mappings.

And first of all, when blocked, you need to change the DNS servers from those provided by your provider to public ones, for example, to Google Public DNS. If you have access to the router, write the same IP addresses of the DNS servers there: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

Step-by-step instructions for installing Tor Browser on Windows

This article provides a detailed description of the process of installing and configuring Tor Browser to log into the Rutreker forum. The browser version for Windows will be considered; for other operating systems the actions are almost the same, with the exception of the specifics of working with the file system, the system for distributing user rights on the machine, etc. Each step is accompanied by screenshots.

Hello, dear friends! Some time ago, fighters for the rights of authors decided to launch a serious crackdown on sites that distribute pirated content. Of course, many did not like this, especially since the copyright law is considered by many to be flawed.

Be that as it may, providers were obliged to block access to the most popular torrent trackers. First of all, we are interested in Rutracker.org.

The twist is that blocking access to Rutracker org is not as easy as it seems to officials. It's easy enough to find workarounds for each browser.

The picture above shows a graph of traffic to the site rutracker.org. Let me remind you that the blocking came into force in mid-December 2015. As can be seen from the graph, attendance barely dropped by 30%. This indicates that the site is actively used, people are using to bypass the Rutracker.org blocking.

What are torrent trackers

These are huge repositories of various information that can be downloaded at high speed. In scientific terms: bittorrent is a data exchange protocol over the Internet, the essence of which is that you exchange data with each other without the direct participation of a tracker, which only stores statistical and other necessary information.

The idea is that you can’t be greedy (download it yourself - give it to others), therefore, having downloaded a certain amount of information, you can’t immediately delete it (for example, a movie), but you need to distribute it for some time. These distributions (and, accordingly, downloads) are managed by a special program called BitTorrent client (I use uTorrent).

The algorithm of work is simple: we find the desired distribution on torrents, download the torrent file (about 10 kilobytes), drag it into the torrent client, wait until the downloading of the distribution itself finishes, we rejoice ourselves and let others enjoy it.

How to download via torrent

First you need to select and install a torrent client, i.e. a program with which you will download and distribute files
uTorrent, as they write on the ruttracker, is a Free BitTorrent client for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X, as well as running on iPhone, iPad and Android devices, written in C++ and characterized by its small size and high speed with quite a lot of functionality.
I suggest installing it. We take the distribution kit. Unpack the archive and run the .exe file, installation begins


Next, choose which folder to install the program in and create the necessary shortcuts.


Now Yandex bar. The panel is quite convenient if you use Yandex at all. I personally use it. In any case, you can check it to broaden your horizons...if not needed, remove the checkboxes.


The installation is, in principle, complete, although the “Speed ​​Control” window has appeared. Click the use selected button; you can check the speed in other ways.

Congratulations, you have installed it... The program is serious, it has many settings, among which we will change one. We go to Settings->Configuration->Folders and there we already check the boxes “place new downloads in” and “Save torrents in”, and also indicate the paths where we will place and save them.

Why this is done: By default, downloads occur in the “Downloads” folder on drive C, which is usually small in size. Saving torrents separately is very convenient. You begin to understand this when you reinstall Windows :). You simply reinstall the client and upload torrent files from a separate folder.

How to download torrent files

The next stage that you need to courageously endure is registration on the tracker. Let's look at the example of www.rutracker.org So, .

Click where it says “Registration”, do everything as it is written there, nothing complicated, the main thing is not to forget your name, password or email address. After you have registered and logged in (logged in under your name), we can start downloading. To do this, find the desired distribution and click “Download torrent”.


The “Open” window appears, in which it is very convenient to select the default Bit-torrent program. Now when you click the “open in” button, the download will begin immediately.


So, we managed to download the torrent file. Then a window appears called “Add a new torrent”. At the top we see the address where it will be downloaded. Below we see the file name and checkmarks. If the distribution is complex, contains, for example, several books, and we only need one, remove all unnecessary checkboxes and feel free to download only what is required.

And now the long-awaited download has begun, you can understand this by the non-zero values ​​of seeds, peers and download speed. If it doesn’t work...well, that’s sad, but if it does work, we look for and read what is written at the top of the article...okay, we don’t look for it, I’ll write it again: We wait, we rejoice, let others rejoice!

Bypass Rutracker.org blocking for Firefox browser

In my opinion, the best solution to bypass Rutracker.org blocking is to use the FriGate plugin. In order to install FriGate in the Firefox browser, you need. The FriGate add-on installation window will open.

Select the Firefox browser and in the window that opens, click “Add to Firefox”:

Then click the “Install” button, after which the browser needs to be restarted for the additions to take effect:

We see that the add-on has been installed (a shortcut has appeared in the upper right corner of Firefox). Now we try to log into the Rutracker.org website and see that the label has changed, now there is the letter “P” inside, which means working through a proxy server.

The most important thing is that the site opens. This means that we were able to bypass the Rutracker org blocking for the Firefox browser. No additional settings are required.

If you still cannot access some not very popular site, this indicates that it is not in the FriGate plugin list. In the settings, you can add any site to the list (this means that it will be accessed through a proxy server).

Other firefox plugins for logging into Rutracker

In addition to FriGate, you can use the following plugins:

• Browsec
• AnonymoX
• ZenMate

The algorithm of actions is similar to the one given above.

You can also use various VPN services to bypass Rutracker blocking:

• VPN Monster
• VPN Gate
• Kebrum

You can also use a special browser called Tor to bypass site blocking. The browser encrypts transmitted data, so working in it is a little more inconvenient (pages take a long time to open). Therefore, it is beneficial to use it for blocked sites.

Conclusion

We have looked at options for bypassing Rutracker org blocking for the Firefox browser. In the near future we will consider bypassing for other browsers, VPN plugins, etc., so I recommend that you stay up to date!
