Citizin Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 System information:Windows XP1024mb of Ram3.07Ghz Celeron DCable Modem Connection (Comcast 12MB/386KB)Firewall: NoA/V: NoDMZ: On-----As you can see, there really is no good answer explaining this, it just seems like there is nothing I can do, i've checked through the advanced options in utorrent, I've come across nothing helpfull to me.upnp mapping never worked, on any torrent application of mine.I run a WRT54G Linksys Router with Speed booster running 1.50+ Firmware.My OS is on a fresh install (8 days old).Now, a lot of torrents give me good speeds, some I get up to 1.25MBps, usually a average torrent gives me those kind of speeds of 200kbps, but lately I have been downloading some tv episodes of "hero" and I came across this problem.There are so many seeds, and so many peers, why does it connect to so little?DMZ is on, there is no ports being blocked, and there is no firewall installed on my system, there is no antivirus installed on my system, whats the deal?Heres a screenshot to help whoever is willing to help better understand the situation.EDIT: yes, I read the rules, this is not a speed problem, this is a connectivity problem with peers/seeds.

DreadWingKnight Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 I notice that you have decidedly ignored including each of the torrent's availability values. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizin Posted February 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 With 3k and 4k+ Seeders should avalibility really be a issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 It shouldn't be, but if the torrent is fake, it will be (and I'm leaning toward it being a fake torrent). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizin Posted February 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 A fake torrent? Intresting, i've never really come across fake torrent, avalibility isn't at 1.000 its more like 0.973 and around those areas. How could it be so low with so many seeders and peers?

Ultima Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Because it's probably a fake torrent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizin Posted February 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Lol, ok, well is that the purpose of fake torrents? To waste time downloading, I had to be downloading something all this time, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Yes, it's to waste time/bandwidth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
