Jasmine Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 I apologise for this newbie question - it's probably something very simple but after searching the forums I havent completely figured it out.I have a torrent downloaded at 83.6% whose download speed suddenly plummetted to 0.0kB/s (from around 15kB/s)My connection is definately working, the green tick is there, and all the uploads seem to be working fine. I don't think there is a problem with my settings as it was downloading properly before. I've checked my port and it says it's connected fine, and I've turned off firewall. I suspect the problem is the lack of availability - it is currently at 1.83, and there is only one seeder in my peer list. Under the 'seeds' column it says "1 (139)"I am assuming there are 139 total seeders out there, but I am only connected to one of them? Is there some way to get connected to more seeders? I have updated the tracker periodically and sometimes a new seeder comes in, but my speed remains at 0 and soon the seeder would go again. This seems to be happening to a few people in my peer list - they all seem to be stuck at 83% - is it just a matter of waiting for seeders to come?If you can help me I would really appreciate it!

Switeck Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 That torrent may be a fake, in which case it will always be stuck at 83%. Either that, or the single seeder you see is very very slow at uploading.Lower that torrent's upload speed and that torrent's upload slots to 1...and just start another torrent while you wait.
