Switeck Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 The "seeds" could be fake seeds designed to posion the torrent...either that or they're real seeds but have been running so long that they have already reached their max connections per torrent limit, and won't connect to anyone else.

Switeck Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 Check availability when you're connected to 40+ peers. If it's never over 1, chances are that torrent won't complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fhchiang Posted July 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 it's 14.999 so it's pretty goodi upload at 32kb/s.. but download at 25-60kb/s..... and not connected to seeds :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 So, what's your other settings in µTorrent (all those reported by Speed Guide CTRL+G and the half-open value)?Certain combinations can reesult in poor results, so given that we can rule out possible problems.

fhchiang Posted July 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 ermm..MAX Global: 230MAx per TASK: 80Max Upload : 35kb/sMAx Half-Open :48 (windows limit is 100)PE: Enabled, ticked allow incoming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 Are you running more than 4 torrents at once with 4 or more upload slots each?I'm asking because lots of upload slots = very slow upload speed PER upload slot, which causes problems.

fhchiang Posted July 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 only 1 or 2 torrent at a time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 I hope someone else has a clue, your settings look good...even conservative.A few routers and software firewalls go nuts with half-open connections very high, or UPnP or DHT enabled...but that's all I can think of.

fhchiang Posted July 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 i'm using hardware router..wireless..Aztech wl720rt4 AKA Abocom Wr254is it safe to assume that if i upload properly, there's no problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
µtorrent-Guest Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 ja, this assume is safe.And the technical specs do not require you to connect to a seed.and in a case like this with so many peers and so less seeds its nothing to worry about.500/32 that would mean every seed must have mathematicly at least 15 uploadslots if every peer likes to see a 100% guy in his peer list. I bet thats very unlikely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Actually, the number of upload slots for each seed is (hopefully!) only a fraction of their max connections per torrent. And they may be running multiple torrents at once which means they may connect to fewer peers on THIS torrent, due to reaching global connections max.Many of the peers no doubt allow 100+ connections PER torrent, and so probably by the time there's 200+ peers all 32 seeds have every connection they're willing to give out tied up.
