TheSacredSoul Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 I have the same problem but it appears only for one torrent. Does this happen to all torrents you download? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Your ISP is a new one in Egypt, right? ("New" in the last 2 years I mean.)It may have started throttling/blocking BitTorrent traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amr_electron Posted May 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 I have the same problem but it appears only for one torrent. Does this happen to all torrents you download?this problem affects all torrents .Your ISP is a new one in Egypt, right? ("New" in the last 2 years I mean.)It may have started throttling/blocking BitTorrent traffic.if this the issue, shouldn't the encryption protocol handle this?am i missing any settings to activate the encryption protocol?another thing that could help, when this problem starts it does only affect my download speed, which means i can upload with my maximum upload rate while downloading is 0.0KB/S ! ! !Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Many ISPs are also blocking/throttling "suspicious" traffic as well, so even encryption (alone) won't help.If it's not your antivirus or firewall causing the problem/s, I don't know what would cause your problem.Try uninstalling them and using Windows XP firewall for protection for a little while....Just be careful where you web surf, bad websites are a FAR bigger threat than anything else right now.

LaughingSkull Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 The same thing is happening to me. Interestingly, it began occuring mere hours after I installed utorrent. I don't know how to fix it. All I know is that at some point, the torrent will begin to download again on its own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amr_electron Posted May 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 i reinstalled a fresh copy of win xp hoping that this fix the problem, i tried downloading before installing any kind of apps (especially antivirus or firewall). Unfortunately nothing changed. but one thing that is realy startd to be a behaviour of the problem is that i can start downloading with full speed on a specific time (i would say from 3:00 AM & for about 6 hours then the prob is on again).so, could this be a matter of isp problem or what?thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Yes, throttling-by-hours is well known behavior by bad ISPs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twpret Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Hi, I live in South Africa, I use Vodacom SA as my ISP with a HSDPA connection using a HSDPA USB modem. All my normal downloads work fine but when I try to download torrent files IT FRUSTRATES THE LIVING DAYLIGHT OUT OF ME!! Sorry.I paid a lot of money to get access to these websites in order to download programs etc. I am looking for Autocad XXXX, when I start the download it tells me there are 191 Seeds and 324 Peers. The ETA is infinite time, my download speed is 1.4kB/s and upload is 1 kB/s.I have windows XP SP2, windows firewall only and connect directly to my ISP with the USB HSDPA modem. I don't know if thy throttle torrent traffic but according to them they don't.I ran a speed test to Speakeasy - Palo Alto CA.Download speed = 358kB/s, 314kB/ssrc="http://www.dslreports.com/im/30715495/5769.png"></a>I have enabled the encryption setting on utorrent and tried nomerous other things stated in the forums. NO luck.Any one have any idea what I can do or where I can find a http download of Autocad 2008?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 You paid lots of money, but you got ripped off. µTorrent is absolutely free. Support for it is free. Most trackers are free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Almost all internet connections through a USB port tend to be VERY poor at handling UDP packets or just lots of (TCP/IP) connections in general.You almost have to use dial-up like settings, or your modem/USB will stuff up and either quit working or slow down to a crawl.Follow Ultima's first FAQ in his signature, and see if that helps.
