EddieV Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 On 100/100mbit lineWanted to know if these settings are ok. Uploading is fast but downloading is not up to par I dont think. What could be the problem, could it be Max Active Downloads? Here are my Utorrent specsBit Torrent:DHT- DisabledP/E- EnabledGlobal Maximum of Connections- 900Max number of connected peer per torrent- 125Number of upload slots per torrent- 25 (not sure if correctly setup)use additional upload slots if 90% etc is CheckedQueueing:Max number of active torrents up or down- 20Max number of active downloads- 20 (not sure if correctly setup)Any advise on what I should do or change above is greatly appreciated. If I can make the up better ok great but at this time the download is not correct I dont think so any and all ideas are welcome.ThanksEd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Those settings are a tad bit conservative for your connection speed... have you tried using the Speed Guide? How fast are you actually uploading and downloading? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieV Posted October 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 HiI set them a little on the low side since I dont actually ever get a true 100mb. More like 50 to 80 so I chose the 50gig speed guide a altered them slightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Yeah, but as I asked, how fast are you actually transferring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieV Posted October 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 right now I am uploading @ 3.9MB/s in utorrent and downloading another @ 3.4MB/s. Of course depending on the site I choose I get better speeds and sometimes much slower.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 IMHO, a third of your theoretical maximum upload speed (12.5MiB/s barring overhead, which you said you never reach anyway) is very respectable. Even just looking at the number absolutely, 3.9MiB/s upload is no small feat. Yeah, you can do better in an absolute sense, but the way BitTorrent is, you're not always going to get fast people downloading from you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieV Posted October 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Understood. Sounds fine I just wanted to make sure I have my settings in order. I was on 10mbs before and I could max that out all the time so I never had to mess with settings except for once (speed test) and that was all. Now with the extreme flucation of speeds I was not sure if better was possible and I was just missing a setting. For now I have it set on 50mbit with some tweaks since I dont hit 100mbit and I guess its ok.Thanks for the hlpEddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
