iamsasuke Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 1) i used to have bitlord<god help me!> but having speeds inbetweem 8-19 kbps bothered me so I switched to this client(µTorrent). I was happy at first because my speeds were now 20-27kbps.2) I would download but i kept noticing i would have "spikes" for about 10 minutes every hour. these spikes woulsd vary from 42-120 kbps but would drop within 10 minutes.3) the network work is a green check, unless i just started a download4) i disabled my windows xp home firewall5) my router is a toshiba pcx2600my question is: what are the spikes and can keep my computer at that "spike" level permanetlythe link to the screenshots are below, 10 or so of them are of Utorrent spikes and such, 1 is of my internet speed.note: photoshop wont frelling work, ill post screenshoot link later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Try turning off DHT, it may be overloading your router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Is your ISP known to throttle BitTorrent traffic?(A few GOOGLE searches may confirm that.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 That link gives:"This album is private. Please login."...so we can't view that/those picture/s.Did you also try to disable resolve ips and show country flags? They also create a horde of UDP packets, which is VERY hard on weak networking hardware (routers) and software (firewalls). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Are you sure your computer isn't just seeing your LAN speeds of 100 megabits/sec?Besides a very few places in the world, 100 megabits/sec internet connections are EXTREMELY rare!
