Ultima Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 Select xx/256k in the Speed Guide. If DHT is affecting your internet connection, then yes, disable it. Otherwise, it doesn't really matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexdimos66 Posted October 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 is it possible tha the norton internet security affects the speed of the connection?if yes if i uninstall it will the problem be fixed?the same questions and for panda antivirus ps i have not enable the firewall in both cases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexdimos66 Posted October 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 and sorry one other question why use xx/256k ?hoaw can i tell if the dht affects my download speed ? i have to test it or is another way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 Because your connection has 256k upload... -.-And yes, NIS can affect µTorrent. Disabling the firewall is useless, uninstalling is the only way. DHT doesn't necessarily affect it unless you stop being able to use the connection for any other application, like a browser.

rexdimos66 Posted October 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 the above is the same woith nod32 antivirus or panda antivirus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 Is what the same, the fact that it affects µTorrent, or that you have to uninstall it to get rid of any effects it has on the system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexdimos66 Posted October 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 no if i use different antivirus programms sush as panda or nod32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 Don't know, but you first have to find out if uninstalling it helps in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 You don't absolutely need an antivirus if you're not downloading anything to your computer... anyhow, Kaspersky's antivirus causes no issues with µTorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rexdimos66 Posted October 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 sorry anothes question i have put the xx/256k adjustments but my download speed have decreesed from before when i have put adjustements of my one why ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Coincidence? Or possibly it's just less overhead now. If you have settings too high, you do nothing but increase overhead, which might make it seem like you're downloading faster, but you're not really.

Switeck Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 The xx/256k setting may be using too many connections for your setup. Try reducing it to 60 global connections and 40 per torrent.Disabling DHT and enabling Peer Exchange may speed things up as well.Have you changed any advanced settings? (Many of those are BEST left untouched!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexdimos66 Posted October 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 well i have put this ajustement xxx/256 because my friend ultima told me so my internet connection is 1024down/256up also i have reduse the net max half open at 6 and the lasure blind feld at true the peer excange is enable and dht disableultima you mean that without correct ajustements the speed is false?for xxx/256 ajustement can you tell me a good speed tha t i must reech?

Switeck Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Firstly, if you're using the xx/256k Speed Guide setting:Are you reaching the upload speed max that it is set to?Is it SUSTAINING that upload speed almost constantly or only occassionally reaching it?Secondly, are you firewalled in µTorrent (yellow or red light at bottom)?If so, your download speeds will be much lower than they would be unfirewalled.

Switeck Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Congesting means "crowding out" -- sort of like all the other cars on the road are making it crowded/busy.I think there may be something ELSE running in the background using your internet bandwidth...possibly a virus or automatic program update?

rexdimos66 Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 nope i dont think so i have only one antivirus program the panda antivirus these makes update once a day ani i have the firewall of windows nothing else can you tell me an average download speed for my ajustements (xxx/256) if you know?

Switeck Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 It TOTALLY depends on the torrents you're trying to download.If there's only 1 very slow seed, most of the time your download speed is 0.At the other extreme, your download could stay maxed out on something like OpenOffice "test" torrents.The middle-of-the-road public torrents are probably going to only give you about as much as you're uploading.

Ultima Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 ultima you mean that without correct ajustements the speed is false?It's not that the information is false, it's that it's overly bloated because µTorrent is counting upload/download speeds due to overhead, which is increased due to having to maintain more connections.

rexdimos66 Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 if this is the case and the indications are not false so why dont we adjust in those speeds?is it possible to harm the net with these speeds?or we will not gain anything?

Ultima Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 You don't gain anything, and have a false sense that you're downloading any faster, not to mention the fact that you're wasting bandwidth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexdimos66 Posted October 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 a ok i have undersatnt now can you tell me how can i solve the problem with the congesting think that tells me in the results after the test for my speed?is an average speed at download 38.2kB/s correct?
