I've never seen this happen before. My downloads are capped right around 30 kB/s for some reason. It's as if I'm on DSL, if one of the torrent speeds goes up the other goes down. If I am downloading 2 files and I delete one the other doubles.

I used to get 500kB/s and now it's at 30 for some reason. I have not changed any of my settings but I did switch to a new motherboard. As far as I know my ports are forwarded correctly and my uTorrent is set up properly as well.

I even tried the tcpip.sys patch (which I never had to use before) and set the half open to 50 but still the same results. I can download from websites fine, average about 700kB/s and good sites I can get to 1.5MB/s easily.

But uTorrent seems to be capped at 30kB/s now all of a sudden. Even the well seeded ones where I connect to over 300 seeds it's still capped at 30. Anyone ever experience anything like this before or know what's wrong?

I'm using a DI-524 router.

try updating your trackers or get new trackers. yeah, it happen sometimes, if most of the peers r from europe and USA then 30 is average. does it happen for all your torrents?

Yea, every single torrent. I tried a bunch of different ones and OpenOffice as well.

Set your half open to 1000 and see how lo....

[nobcake]

half open no use one

only connect to peer damn fast. the dl graph will rise damn fast la, if u leave at 8 it will steady go up one.

just now i was dling smth, went up to 700kb/s constant, then i went rs com, now perma 200 nia, quite fked

Ahh I finally got it. I had max upload at 5. I changed it to 8 and now it's back to 400+. Stupid utorrent lol

but do you guys limit your uploading speed? or everything everything leave it as default? cos if i leave default, my uploading speed always higher than my downloading speed?

just set to 20-30 max upload will do.. and is you are using "blackcat's" torrent set to default.

[danielpng]

blackcats?

cos normally i set to 3-4kb/s... then my downloads quite slow also..

i using th singnet 3.5mbps.. quite slow i reckon..




And do you guys use the "Force Start" downloading in uTorrent? or just normal downloading??

Apparently, i'm downloading a show that has like 200+ seeds.. but the downloading speed only 11kb/s.. but i uploading like 20kb/s.. bo hua leh like that..

uploading speed higher than downloading? wouldn't that be bad?

I don't think its utorrent itself as i'm using it and with my settings capped upload at 22kB/s i can get downloads at near 200kB/s for high seeded torrents. encryption on of cos and vista 32bit open ports patched.

my utorrent is going like 0.4kb/s for each file for these few days. I dont think its the fault of the uploading party. Somehow it seems like the speed is being blocked. Last night there was an increase to a regular 300kb/s but now its like its reverted back to slow mode. I tried updating the trackers but its of no use. wondering if things would change if i change the bt program

that does happen to me once in a while. but a restart of the utorrent and updating the trackers works sumtimes...

Do you mean you upload at 8 kbps now or do you mean 8 is the Number Of Upload Slots Per Torrent?

[FallenNGE]

hi all i'm actually on maxonline 12000 so for me...i put my max upload to 1/2 my max upload...so although my max is ard 40 kbtye/sec i will set to 10-15kbyte/sec to share so that i will not affect my download...but if there's router then u may wish to take out of overall bandwidth consumed by u and other computers
