Make sure your upload speed is set properly.

What do you mean by that and how can i set it properly and how can i know the upload speed?

edit: my upload speed is 288kbps and download speed is 2272 Kbps so i kno my upload speed now how do i configue it?

Select xx/256k in the Speed Guide.

Try disabling DHT and UPnP and lowering half-open connections limit in µTorrent.
