Weird problem with uploading

[OsciBosci]

My uTorrent is crazy. Download works fine but I have a problem with uploding. I aways have a problem with leechers. Only few of them are connected to me. Look at my peers statistic now: 1(35), 2(29), 1(15) and its always the same therefore my uploading is very low. The next problem is that if I Update tracker for some sec. more peers are connected to me but than the disconnect and the situation is bad. Could someone try to help me??

Is your ISP hostile to BitTorrent traffic?

(You'll need to search the internet for references and/or ask around for people who also use the same ISP in your area.)

Are you running torrents with a high peer to seed ratio?

If there's many more seeds than peers, the peers will often ignore "new" seeds...and become seeds themselves not long after joining the torrent.

Is your µTorrent firewalled?

Firewalled seeds can only connect to unfirewalled peers, which are often few in number and will probably complete the torrent quickly.

Is your upload settings set up correctly?

Run Speed Guide (CTRL+G)?

The problem has begun when I tried to "upgread" my uTorrent. I have used the guide from this site: http://www.bootstrike.com/Articles/BitTorrentGuide/. I have installed a patch for Vista named EventID4226Fix. But I think it hasnt installed correct because I get and report that file "tcpip.sys" cannot be find or cannot be change. I have made some changes in uTorrent and it upload really slow. Earlier even if only some peers where connected to me my upload was about 50-60kb/s. Now it isnt even 5kb/s. I have also installed cfosspeed, coult it stop something in my computer?? Oh and I have still the green circle...

If there's many more seeds than peers, the peers will often ignore "new" seeds...and become seeds themselves not long after joining the torrent. - 1). So, if a torrent has a high peer to seed ratio, would it mean that it would download more slowly? 2). I am currently downloading such a torrent and it has the following: (5)167 seeds and 30(1302) peers. Is that normal? I tend to think that 5 out of 167 seeds is too low.

Torrents with a high peer to seed ratio almost require you to be unfirewalled so new peers can find you quickly.

cfosspeed might be a problem...I don't know, but try running µTorrent without it. Either that or a software firewall is not handling the last upgrade of µTorrent properly.

refaelsh,

Many of the reported seeds have already LEFT the torrent, are firewalled, and/or not making OR ALLOWING any more new connections to them.

refaelsh,

Many of the reported seeds have already LEFT the torrent, are firewalled, and/or not making OR ALLOWING any more new connections to them. - This makes sense. Then how many do you think - out of 167 - are still real seeds? And besides, 5 out of 167 I think it's too little.

And if there's 1300 real peers for them to connect to, I'm sure they'd hit their per-torrent connection max long before they get to you. I limit my per-torrent connection max to less than 100, sometimes as low as 10-20 when I have multiple torrents going at once. I'd expect others to only be allowing about 50-150 connections per torrent as well...because it's nuts to go much higher unless you're on a stupidly fast internet connection. (...like 10+ megabits/sec kind of fast.)

If the torrent downloads really fast there's also the problem of finding new peers to upload to...before they become seeds.
