jjuice525 Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Hi im new to uTorrent. I recently downloaded 2 torrent files and i gotta say utorrent is great. The only thing is that today i recently tried download a torrent file, but did not want to start. Down speed stays at 0.0 kb/s. My port is OK! open and accepting connections. My other settings are:Global maximum number: 350Maximum number connected peer per torrent: 100Number of upload slots per torrent: 4Maximum number of active torrents: 5Maximum number of active downloads: 4But dont mind the settings it has been like that from the beggining and its been downloading ok. I don't understand why the download started beign inactive today since the last couple of days all the the torrents i downloaded where downloading perfectly.my firewall is off so thats not the case..Thanks in advance.

DreadWingKnight Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Are you sure it's not your ISPs messing with things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Rogers and Optonline have both been reported to interfere with bittorrent traffic (and it doesn't suprise me since they're both cable providers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted September 29, 2006 Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 About the only download (speed) you'll get is from others on the same ISP as you who aren't fully throttled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted September 30, 2006 Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 Your ISP may throttle based on time-of-day. Many allow faster speeds at night/weekends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerjohn Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 i have RCN and i think they're really messing with torrent traffic. this happened a few days ago. none of my new torrents will connect with any seeds or peers (1 of the torrent has over a thousand seeds and peers each!), but the weird thing is, another torrent that's been downloading before this complete shutdown happened is still downloading (at a very slow speed, though).any ways to counter ISPs? changing MAC address, spoof IP addr, etc....? i'm paying for my 10mB/s speed!!!

Ultima Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 If it's working for older torrents, then it's likely just the new torrents that are the problem -- fake or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
