reYer Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Hi all,I am getting really slow download speeds and i just dont know why. I will just list things from the 'read here first thred' because i dont really know what info you would need...- The color of the network status light is green,- The port checker thing said this when i tried it "OK! Port 12126 is open and accepting connections. You will be able to receive incoming BitTorrent connections."- The affected settings say;uploadlimit - 186kb/s Upload slots - 8 connections (per torrent) - 100connections (gloabal) - 750max active torrents - 9max active downloads - 8 (<-- is that the stuff you need to know?)- I am using windows XP,- I am using windows firewall and avast! antivirus,- The router i am useing is (i just got this off the side, so i dont know if its what info you need) : NetGear 54Mbps Wireless ADSL Firewall router - DG834G v2^ although it is wireless, i am connected to it by a wire...- My ISP is talktalk (thats probs the problem rite there) - Connection type is cable and the speed test results were - (using broadbandmax.co.uk) - Download = 5317kbps and Upload = 374kbpsI have also tried useing that encryption option, both with it on and with it off .. and i couldnt see a difference.The file i am trying to download have around 300 users. Also, i am only downloading at around 20kbps, and as you can see from the internet speed test, there is a HUGE difference! So far my download/s have only peeked at 26kbps, and its just not on, it says its going to take one and a half weeks to download a film :sAny help would be really appreciated, thanks in advance,Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted April 21, 2007 Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 ... Did you read the setup guide? It said to select your upload rate in the Speed Guide (Ctrl+G). 186KiB/s = 1488kbit/s, which is far from 374kbit/s. Do select xx/384k in the Speed Guide.
