CRSHFBRCTN Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 I read some FAQs at other sites and they all just talk about the uTorrent speed dropping, this is different, my entire internet connection over my entire home network drops, it sends and receives packets incredibly slowly, I don't know what is wrong, and yes I do download quite abit of torrents and the problems started when I started downloading torrents, I have Charter Communications as my ISP, if that makes a difference? Thanks for any light anyone can shed on this problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5618 Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Switeck means what your internet subscription speed is. 100Mbit is your LAN speed, which stops at your modem. What speeds (up and down) does your ISP provide you with for what you pay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRSHFBRCTN Posted July 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 oh, sorry, you can probably tell I'm not very tech-savvy. I'm looking at my last billing summary and it says 5m Down/512k Up (3 Sec Licenses).Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5618 Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 PRess Ctrl+G in µTorrent and select xx/512 from the dropdown menu. See if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRSHFBRCTN Posted July 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Hmm Thank you very much, I'll report back if I have any problems. I don't think that worked --as soon as I did that my connection dropped again, sometimes it happens even when I'm not using uTorrent, but it didn't happen the very first time until I started torrenting...

Switeck Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Have you disabled DHT, Resolve IPs, and possibly UPnP as well in µTorrent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRSHFBRCTN Posted July 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 I have just disabled DHT, and UPnP, where is the Resolve IP option? I couldn't find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
