Switeck Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 Maybe your settings in µTorrent are too high and cause an overload? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizike Posted March 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 Which settings, Im running normal settings 1 upload slot, net max half open 100, general torrent freak utorrent setting guidelines is what i used, which ones would cause that,, thing is i can download at 600kbs down adn 45 up with ease and running 10 or more at one time, once i reboot or on my first attempt... but even with nothing running and utorrent has allready downloaded something i cant even download one till i reboot.. I get tracker status offline timed out.. drivin me crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaddix Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 change max half open to like 15 dood, 100 is excessive, i'm assuming you have xp tweak to increase tcp stack connection attemptsedit: hell, I wouldn't be surprised if your isp chokes off your BT ports when it sees 100+ connections blasting from your machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizike Posted March 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 At 10 and 15 my speeds run at 250, when i go 50 or more i can run at 600kbs.. Ill give it a shot back and see if i get same tracker error. Yeah using the tcp patch.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Set it back to 8 anyway. And try turning off DHT, you're probably overloading your router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Even being optimistic, I wouldn't recommend more than 5 torrents active at a time if you can only upload around 45-50 KB/sec. Each torrent gets the upload slots you allow per torrent, so if upload slots are set to 4 and you've got 5 torrents going...that's 20 total upload slots. 45 KB/sec split 20 ways is ~2.25 KB/sec each. That's what others would likely see when downloading from you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizike Posted March 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 I have my upload slot set to 1 so it averages 8-10 kbs per torrent, I dont have dht on cause its not allowed on private sites, and I dont have a router,, see drives me crazy cause now it has worked all day with new torrents and all, with no settings being changed yet, now im a wait till it does it and drop the tcp down to 10 and see if it fixes it.. well see its so wack and it never used to do it for over a year no problems with these settings so dont know whats up. Just since i upgraded to the new utorrent am i having this issue... thanks guys for all ur advice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 You'll probably get better results if you allow at least 3 upload slots per torrent, so long as each upload slot can still get at least 3 KB/sec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Alderaan Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Lower the max_half_open back to 8 and use the settings the µtorrent speedguide suggests and see if it solves your problem. If it doesn't its something else and you can put it high again after you/we have found it. If it does solve your problem then its just a question of narrowing down the exact culprit? max half open? Max connections? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
