Slows down when left alone?

[wellcum]

I was downloading one torrent, the speed hovers around 15-20K/Sec. But whenever I clicked around in uTorrent and else where on the computer, it speeds up dramatically. Usually a jump to around 60-100K/Sec or even 300+ once. But after a while it drops back down.

Any ideas? Thanks

Have you tried all the stuff in the slow speed troubleshooting FAQ?:

Thanks for the update.

Yes, I have read those and I do not have speed problems in general and often maxed out my connection speed.

But in this case, it speeds up when you are around and slows down when not. It clearly show on the speed monitor chart. Very strange.

The troubleshooting often helps much more than simple speed problems.

Your condition qualifies.
