hybridsoldier Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 Ok, somebody probably already posted this thread but I'm gonna go through with this one so that my questions don't get mixed up with the previous ones...Anyway, here's my problem:I tried downloading a patch to accelerate my utorrent downloads then I modified my preferences in the advanced section (under preferences), to be exact: the net.max_halfopen thingy. And all my downloads are not only slow but the yellow sign won't go away and I can't get the green tick back (the little icon on the bottom of utorrent). I tried every suggestion possible. When I test if the port is fowarded properly I always get an error therefore I can't open the port even though I uninstalled all the firewalls and antivirus softwares already and I restarted the computer yet I still get no incoming connections. The arrow next to the torrents are red too, which supposedly means that I have no seeders. The maximum that I can download to is 60 kbs but I'm uploading like crazy! Can anyone give me a CLEAR, step by step explanation to how to open the ports and to accelerate the download rates on utorrent?Thanks in advance!!!!!

DreadWingKnight Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 http://utorrent.com/setup_guide.phpmodifying the net.max_halfopen does not actually affect your speeds, especially not if you're getting incoming connections.Do you have a router?If so, what model?What model modem?

hybridsoldier Posted August 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 No, I don't think I have a router. My Internet is through Ethernet...sorry I'm not that good in computer stuff. I still don't know what to do though...anyway thanks for the quick reply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
