Download speed Problems

[fluxiontech]

Hi there,

I must say i love utorrent a lot. I have recently found that it is not giving me the speeds it should.

For example while downloading a torrent I was getting speeds of 7 - 10 KB/s with utorrent.

When i used azureus for the same torrent on the same port it gave me speeds of 200+ KB/s

I really wanna use utorrent cause of its low memory useage and easy interface but this problem isint helping

utorrent uploads at a maximum speed though :S

Here are screenshots of my settings:

The port i use is forwarded and all and when testing azureus and utorrent i used the same port.

I also noticed that the # of peers connecting when im using utorrent is less than that when I use azureus.

NOW PLZ someone make utorrent gimme uber speeds like azureus!!!

Edit : BTW im using v1.2.2 of utorrent and latest version of azureus aswell

Do you have Network OK in your status bar by any chance? And was the tracker online or offline?

You should also change your port to a number higher than 10000.

Edit: Try the torrent in my signature as well. It might be plain coincidence.

i get 900+ KB/s :|

EDIT by silverfire: Please do not quote posts directly before yours

Getting 900KB/s on the OpenOffice shows that the source of your speed problems comes from the peers you're connecting to, since the well-seeded and peered torrent proves that µTorrent isn't the source of the problem - the clients you're connecting to are.

you may use BT Engine 4.7 (googling)

I heard that is useless, anyone else wanna confirm this "BT Engine 4.7" thing.

thanks silverfire, but why did it work faster on azureus :s
