jensern Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 HiI have used bittorrent for a very very long time. Just have a look at this :21 out of 5312 seeds connected, 5 out of 3286 peers connected. Download speed <10kB-I have already forwarded my port. ( confirmed through speed guide )-I never had this problem before only until a week ago.-Using the OpenOffice torrent I can only max out 20kB. My connection is 512/256 kbps.-I am aware that my ISP does bandwidth throttling and I thought Protocol Encryption would do the trick. -Direct download speeds max out at 60kB.It seems that something is preventing me from connecting to peers. It connects me to more seeds instead, making me having a low upload ratio, and hence lower download speeds.Can someone help me out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 Given that your ISP also does bandwidth throttling, and that OpenOffice torrent performance is less than downstream maxing, I would guess that your ISP is also interfering with connections.

Ultima Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 Some ISPs get past protocol encryption by different methods, and at that point, there's nothing we can do about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
