Switeck Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 You are confusing kilobits/sec for KiloBYTES/sec.Did you run Speed Guide (CTRL+G) and choose the xx/512k setting?(or lower?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 This is not because you don't have a static ip.If you get a green icon (ever!) then port forwarding or UPnP works...or isn't even needed.Are you uploading at the set max of 47 KiloBYTES/sec...or is even upload going "slow"?Do note that if you're only uploading at 47 KiloBYTES/sec then downloading faster than that means someone ELSE isn't able to download as fast as they upload. On very large torrents, this results in download speed often being not much more (if any!) than upload speed...and once the download is over 90% done upload speed is often greater than download speed.

casper_7779 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 yea its set to 47kbs... uploads go up to 45kbs with any torrent large or small.. some times i cap it to 35kbs to speed up the download speed but thats doesnt make much of a difference...so is this normal?.. or do you suggest i do something?.
