10(38) Seeds, 89(438) Peers, but SLOW download... WHY?

Hi!

I always noticed with Utorrent that when I had at least 4 -5 seeds, the download would pick up over a day to 40 - 50 and now I'm downloading a big torrent (15GB!) and the speed is so important on this particular torrent, but for 24 hours now my speed is 1.0 - 5.0 and changes every 3 - 4 seconds! (usually staying close to the 1.0)

I used all the speed guides posted and I can't figure out why this is. If there are seeds, how can I improve this downloads speed? Does adding tracks help? If yes, how do you find more tracks to a torrent?

Thanks!

Worry about your upload speed.

How many people are you uploading to?

Do they have a LOT more of the torrent than you do?

Is your upload speed going a lot slower than you set it to?

If so, your connection may be overloaded...causing the SLOW download speeds you're seeing.
