cyco Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 Hi.I have been using utorrent for over 2 months now .Earlier i was getting very low speeds due to Nvidia Forceware and access manager but after i uninstalled that , and set a decent upload speed , my speed was normal .. i just reformatted my computer.Now , when i use utorrent , i get speeds between 0.0 to 0.1 Kbps .. i have not installed Nvidia Forceware and access manager this time .. Also , i checked and it says my port is being forwarded properly .. i get the green check mark .. its also not that my torrent is not seeded it has 16000 seeds and 9000 peers .. i have a 192 Kbps connection so i shd get a speed og 16-22 like i used to ... i have not changed my device or anything .. it is a Motorola Sb5101 Surfboard cable modem .HELP !

Ultima Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 My hunch is that that torrent is fake. Try a torrent from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyco Posted October 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 i did that .. i may get a faster speed like 2.0 but not much more than that .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 Unless your upload is as fast as your download, you will not consistantly max out your download speeds unless you're on overseeded torrents.But like Ultima says, it's almost certainly a fake. ...especially so if you never seem to connect to a seed or never get anything from them.Have you exceeded your monthly bandwidth quota and been throttled by your ISP?What's your upload bandwidth and what settings are you using in µTorrent?

cyco Posted October 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 i am quite sure that its not a seed problem as the open office torrents also dont work .. also the torrent which im using is being used by my friend who has a 256Kbps unlimited connection and he gets a speed of 28 ! i will call up the ISP and ask about the quota .. ** i had put on protocol encryption but it didnt make a difference so i put it back off **settings :randomize port : offenable upnp port mapping : Onadd to firewall exceptions : on [i use kaspersky internet suite .. windows AND kaspersky firewall is off ..]global max upload rate :16global max download rate :24global max connections : 192max conn peers/torr : 16no.of upload slots/torr : 4use additional slots : Onenable dht, for network , for new torrs , ask tracker , enable peer ex all Onallow incoming legacy on .. protocol encryption OFF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 You seem to be allowing too many ip connections for your line.You also probably are running too many torrents at once, and coupled with 4 upload slots each...may not be uploading faster than 0.1 KB/sec on average PER upload slot.DHT + UPnP both enabled may also be too much for your networking hardware+connection.What is your max upload speed?Can µTorrent upload at that speed sustain?

cyco Posted October 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 its a 192 kbps .. so both uoload and d/l are arnd 20-21 .. and there is only 1 torrent added .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 Ok, limit GLOBAL connections to only 60 and connections per torrent to 30.Set your upload speed max to 16 KB/sec while downloading...and if you want put the alternate upload speed as high as 20 KB/sec.Are you reaching the set upload speeds?

cyco Posted October 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 no. still 0.1.i added another torrent now . total 2 .. speed is around 1.5 for up , 1.5 for down ... !i think this is a conflict either with some Nvidia thingy or maybe with its drivers or maybe with kaspersky internet suite ???speed is back to 0.[What are you, retarded?

Switeck Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 My advice: use GOOGLE alot!Read more about nvidia problems -- do all kinds of searches concerning your motherboard, network card, problems related to networking, file-sharing, and bittorrent in particular.Read more about kaspersky internet suite -- particularly how to configure it in a file-sharing/gaming/BitTorrent environment. It may be a single, simple setting in it causing ALL your pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyco Posted October 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 shdnt be .. coz ive almost turned everything off in kaspersky .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Then you may need to remove kaspersky ENTIRELY to rule it out as a probable cause of your problems....turn on Win XP's firewall if you do, if you don't have a router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyco Posted October 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 i wont do that !! i need an antivirus dude .. lemme see .. the ISP guy came over today and said that i was getting a little less speed .. so lets c .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 *WHAT* ISP are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Most antivirus scanners are useless against 0-day infections. I use Process Viewer, HijackThis, TCP view, and SpyBot Seek And Destroy to protect myself against malware and feel secure enough against anything short of a strong rootkit. And if things got really bad, I can always format and reinstall from CD/DVD.You don't need to remove the antivirus for long, and while it's gone -- if you configure the Win XP firewall correctly, you're reasonably well protected.

Switeck Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 Overloaded upload speeds can cause bursty (19, 1, 10, 0) download speeds.So at least test with upload speed set to 9-13 KB/sec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyco Posted November 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 its really wierd .. yesterday , my speed was going upto 19 then would come back down to 0 then stay at 2 .. then up and down . again .. i tried reducing speeds but no avail ..

Switeck Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 When the individual torrents do not have specific limits set (download/upload = 0) then global limits take precedence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 Your TCP is forwarded correctly, but apparently UDP (which DHT needs) is not.Have you tried doing GOOGLE searches concerning your ISP to see if others have similar problems?Have you also tried blowing away ALL your µTorrent settings (back up your .torrent files first!) and reinstalling µTorrent? (The FAQ can tell you how to do that.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
