erafy Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Can somebody tell me why when i start utorrent my download speed is about 500 kbs and after 30 minutes it slows down a lot, about 120 Kbs? I restart utorrent and it behaves in the same way. P.S. (Can also somebody explain me what happens if i increase the value of bt.connect_speed in the utorrent advanced settings?thanx) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 What does the Speed Guide show your settings to be?And don't mess with the bt.connect_speed, as you'll (more likely than not) simply overload your hardware. It determines how many connections it'll attempt to make per second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Choose xx/512kbit and leave it alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erafy Posted July 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 how do you know i should set it at xx/512kbs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Because it is the closest matched settings to 50 KiloBYTES/sec upload speed.Allowing as many upload slots and active (or downloading) torrents at once as you had set (as shown above) pretty much wrecks BitTorrent.

erafy Posted July 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Yes ok but i followed every step suggested by the speed guide of utorrent and when i tested my internet connection it resulted i had a download speed of 3,6 Mb and an upload speed of 816 Kbs, so i was supposed to set higher connection settings than xx/512Kbs, wasnt i!?...

Switeck Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 If your connection cannot run reliably at higher speeds, there's little reason to try to force it to.Please at least try xx/512k for a day or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
