washboy Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Hi all,Everything was just working fine until it reached 95%-99% then the download speed drop all the way to 0. It happened for every files I downloaded. Not sure what the problem is but everything looks fine (my wifi connection, internet, etc.) Has anyone had the same kind of problem before?Many thanks...washboy ~ newbie...

qeorge Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 I have found that when this happens, if I stop the torrent, wait a minute, and restart it this sometimes helps. Or just waiting a while, they all finish in time.I would expect the source of the issue to be this:When you start DLing a torrent, you can receive any available piece. When you near the end, you need specific pieces. This limits who you can get data from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
washboy Posted December 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 I just leave it DLing the torrent over night but still won't finish downloading. I tried Azureus and had the same problem. I wonder if the problem lied on my very connection. Any more ideas?thanks,washboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 ... Probably a fake or poisoned torrent. Look for another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
