Extremely slow speed for months.

[krishend]

i have had extremely slow speed for about 6 months now and its very fustrating, i am also using bitcomet where the download speeds are around 1-5 kb however most of the time not working at all. i am now with u torrent and i am connecting to more peers seeders but only a slight inprovement in speed, however it is constant between 1-10kb/s. i have done speed tests my download speed is 2.36 mbps and upload is 0.2 mpbs. any help apprieciated.

You should probably use xx/192k or xx/256k in Speed Guide, as it wants your max upload speed in kilobits/sec.

Have you changed any of µTorrent's advanced settings?

(Some settings changes can crash µTorrent and possibly even your computer as well!)

i changed the speed settings to xx/100 mb jus to experiment and it seems to have got my downloads going around 30-40kb. this is the fastest speed i have had for a long time. downloading the slackware torrent also and that seems to help my other download. any more help appriecated.

But you can't upload anywhere near 100 megabits/sec.

yeah, uhm, lol, so why don't you finally experiment with the values Switeck wrote?

[krishend]

so if i change the upload to wat u recommended would this be more apprioprate. will i get faster speeds. anything else can do to get faster speeds?

[Switeck]

It should.
