Pooptart Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 So I reformated after I couldnt get some Adobe CS3 Programs to install correctly.Before the reformat, I had speeds all the way from 100kbps to 800kbps.It is now after my reformat, and I am down to 1kbps to 4kbps.Heres the required info:# Color of Network Status Light: There aren't any colors down there...# Port Checker writes: OK! Port [#] is open and accepting connections.# Speed guide Settings: -- Upload Limit: 1kbps (Same as before reformat) -- Upload Slots: 1 (Same as before reformat) -- Connections Per Torrent: 75 (Was 250 Before reformat) -- Connections Global: 250 (Same as before reformat) -- Max Active Torrents: 2 (I always Force Start all torrents) -- Max Active Downloads: 1 (I always Force Start all torrents)# OS Installed: Windows Vista (32-Bit)# Security Software: Norton 360 (uTorrent allowed all permissions) -- And Windows Firewall is turned off, as always.# Router Model: WRT55AG -- All of the below settings were the same before reformat -- -- I found FTP Port 21 and Http port 80 to be fastest, So I used those before reformat (now theyre just as slow as every other port) -- I have DMZ Enabled -- I have the current port forwarded -- I have the port that my Ethernet is coming in on set to unlimited bandwith -- I have QoS Set to Highest on this port# Modem Model: Motorolla SBV4200# ISP: Road Runner, Cable Connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pooptart Posted June 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 What.. I dont like to seed. It was the same thing before the reformat where I was getting 800kbps download speeds.So I dont see how that can possibly be the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 µTorrent is programmed to prevent some of the detrimental effects of leeching on torrent swarms. Namely by hard-limiting download speeds to 6x the upload speeds...when upload speeds are set very low.Your connection probably only has somewhere between xx/256k and xx/1mbit upload bandwidth, so use the one closest to yours in µTorrent's Speed Guide (CTRL+G).

Ultima Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 Lesson of the story: seed fairly, or GTFO. Or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
