Ben_needing_help Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Hi, I have downloaded UTorrent about 1 week ago, and joined TV Central. I live on the Gold Coast, Australia. I have Broadband Connection with Optus, 512 download, 128 upload. I have speed tested the connection several times and all seems ok. I am using Windows XP and AVG antivirus.I have tried to download several times, and only successfully twice. Every time the speed slows down and stops eventually.I have tried turning off the firewall, which improves the speed initially but then it slows after getting to about 20% downloaded.Can anyone please assist with this. Do I need to open a port? If so, how do I do this?Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben_needing_help Posted January 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 No, I will try this when I get home. Thanks for the reply. I have found it all a bit confusing not being very computer literate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
