dvtrv Posted January 19, 2021 Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 Running a windows 8.1 fully up to date. latest Kodi 18.9 recently dl speeds from dramatically from 4-5 mb to low kB last time it was Seeds 35 (51) Peers 1 (35) why when I’m running off my home network of 110mb would speeds go to 4-5mB down to 15kb or whatever the M and K should be written?

PiusX Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 So unless this is ISP throttle you probably got a fake or bad torrent or torrent file that has too few uploads. I do know if your speed got Megbits and then drops to Kiobits that would indicate ISP throttle detecting torrent usage and they will slow your internet.

Hi, thanks for your response. this was happening on few items I was trying to obtain and I tested it with different levels of Seeds n Peers and all were doing the same. I chose to not tweak utorrent settings, which helped considerably for a number of years, and this appears to have resolved the issue. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PiusX Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Speedtest doesn't relate to torrent speed. That is based on Swarm, and peer sharing that determines download speed. Having fast internet helps but that isn't torrent speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
