sponger246 Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Today I removed NAV because it was killing my memory and installed another antivirus. I enabled the windows firewall and added an exception for uTorrent. All my ports are forwarded correct and I have all my settings set the same as they have been. But my speeds have been slowly declining. I tried testing a torrent from OpenOffice.org and it ran amazingly fast. You said, that the problems you're experiencing likely lie only with the swarm if this happens.Could you offer me any words of wisdom, let me know what/why this happens? Im not quite sure I understand the whole swarm thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Some swarms have peers that have very fast connections and have upload slots to spare for you. The OO.o torrents fit that description. Other torrents might have swarms with very slow peers and/or peers with no free upload slots, in which case you're not going to be transferring very quickly from them.

sponger246 Posted December 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Thanks for the quick response. I think Ive got it now.One more thing. I know I have seen this before but I cant find the answer. Even when Im not downloading, just seeding, I still have downloads on the count of 1-2Kb/s.What could be causing this?

Switeck Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 DHT and/or 100+ connections at once adds up to lots of download traffic too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
