chrisling Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 Hi guys,I have some problem with download speed. Okay here was what I had done so far to ensure I'm taking the right path to increase the download speed but unlikely work.I had read the Speed Guide and done the speed test. In kb/s, download speed is 533 and upload is 103, so I set the download and upload speed 540 and 110 respectively.I did the port fordward well, and pass the test in port test.Currently am downloading a torrent. It maintained at around 4.5kb/s and this is really headache. Seeds are 14(35) and Peers are 25(89). it should be fast right...Wondering why...Anyone can help me please. Which steps I done were wrong please figure me out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 You probably needed to select xx/128k or slower in Speed Guide (CTRL+G).Btw, don't confuse bits with bytes. I'm pretty sure your ISP throttles if not nearly stops BitTorrent traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisling Posted November 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 I didn't confuse and I had read the guide carefully. It's Kb/s in the test...ISP throttles my connection? Oh my god that means I can't do anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 µTorrent download and upload speeds are KiloBYTES/sec, bandwidth speeds (Kb/s) is in kilobits/sec...so you really only have about 1/10th what you think you have.ISPs that Block BitTorrent are worse than throttles...you may be able to download/upload, but maybe less than 10 KiloBYTES/sec speeds.Doesn't hurt to try?

chrisling Posted December 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Ya my downloads never more than 10 kb/s...I think I finally understand your Kilobytes/sec here, thanks ^^ I'll reset the download and upload speed then. But it seems doesn't help much...Because that's not the source of the problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 Try lower settings for everything BUT download and upload speeds.Have you tried Ultima's Troubleshooting Guide?:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
