mjpmjp123123 Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 Ive been downloading p90x and its a pretty big download so its taking for ever. But it wouldnt be that bad if the speed was so low. Ive tried everything but nothing will work. Its going 10kb-20kb per second. Earlier today for about 5 minutes though it was going 500kb-600kb per second. Its at 31 percent and has been downloading for a week and still has a ways to go. Please help me what should I do?adding something...Also earlier today I had 40kb-50kb for a long time. And at one point my uploading speed was at 998.2kb per second. and my downloading was 1kb per second.oh and another thing...How do I enable legacy connection?

Switeck Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 Did you run Speed Guide (CTRL+G) and choose the setting that best matched your UPLOAD bandwidth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjpmjp123123 Posted July 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 Yes. The speed is all done and set correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 I am unsure I've ever heard of an ISP that provides nearly 1 MB/sec upload speeds. Certainly not Road Runner as far as I recall unless they recently started offering fiber to the home.Please tell us your ISP's rated speed limits and current µTorrent settings (as shown by Speed Guide). Even Speed Guide's settings are often too much for marginal networking hardware and software even when the internet connection is technically capable of handling the load without problems.Are you reaching and sustaining the upload speed you set in µTorrent on torrents with many peers?Is web surfing slowed while you're experiencing extremely slow download speeds?Have you tried Ultima's slow speed FAQ?:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjpmjp123123 Posted July 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 My speed is 2647 on my speed test. I set it to 2 mb and my uploads are getting there just not my downloads. And yes ive noticed web surfing has slowed down extremely whyle utorrent is running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 You seem to be confusing connection speeds (in kilobits/sec) with download+upload speeds (in KiloBYTES/sec), also you seem to be thinking your connection's max upload speed is equal to its max download speed. It isn't -- it's probably only 1/4 to 1/20th as fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjpmjp123123 Posted July 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 ok I see but I did it again and now its at 500kb but its not making any differenceoh and it might help if i show you how everything is set up so is there a way to copy and paste a page from my preferences or speed guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 You need to set it to your upload speed in kilobit/second. There is no option named '500kb'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjpmjp123123 Posted July 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 thats what i meant 500kb per second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Don't use 'kb'. Write it out. Kilobytes or kilobits. Pick one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Okay, just do the speed test and take a screenshot of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
