mcdonalds43 Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Hello forum,I am new to utorrent but like reviews. My problem is after downloading utorrent, and attemping to set my speed by accessing the speed guide in option, the utorrent app freezes. I have to go into task manager and end utorrent processes to stop utorrent. utorrent does recognize my port being open. I am using a netgear 108meg router running one pc.I have a hp 750n pc running windows xp sp2. I turned off my windows firewall as instructed on some of the thread. I am running mcafee AV. I need some assistance just getting utorrent setup properly. Can anyone help? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Do you have any incompatible software installed? Check the FAQ for a list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 You might need to uninstall McAfee's firewall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcdonalds43 Posted July 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 I do not have the mcafee firewall installed on the AV. I noticed on incompatible software page it mentioned netgear router WGT524. I have model WGT624 could this still be a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcdonalds43 Posted July 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Also, I use your utorrent setup guide: I am not sure if my calculation are correct but it states,to tweak connection speed do the following: Take your upload speed result in kbits and divide it by 8 (you now have your result in kBytes.) Take your speed in kBytes and multiply it by 0.8 (this now gives your a proper upload speed of 80% of you tested maxMy upload speed is 133kb, Iam using a 768kb dsl connection. 133kb / 8 = 16.63x0.8 = 13.3Is this correct?

Switeck Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Yes, it's the same as dividing 133kilobits/sec by 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
