858balla Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 sorry my other thread wasn't allowing me to post for some reason,,so what should my ideal settings be? as of now i have my max upload set to 150 kBmax dl set to 0 (unltd)max global connections 250peers per torrent 125slots per torrent 17and all advanced settings turned to stock.someone told me that messing with the net_max_halfopen amount would help. But i didnt patch my tcpip.sys file. I did infact change my netsh global ip autotuning level thing to = highlyrestricted. (someone told me that this would help prevent my internet from getting shut off because of too many connections) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Someone was talking out of their arse when they told you that changing net.max_halfopen would help. Do NOT change it from the default without any good reason.Run the Speed Guide properly? You should be selecting your connection's upload rate in the dropdown menu.

858balla Posted March 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 so just run that? and thats it? no changing advanced? or anything else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Not normally, no. The Advanced settings shouldn't be touched unless there's a specific need/reason to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

858balla Posted March 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 ok now its back...my problem is that before. in xp sp2 i was getting my dl speeds up to around 500kbps. Now the highest i can get is around 100 and thats inconsistent. I used the speed guide and set my speed to the 1Mbit speed as i had it in XP also.I followed the guide. I have my port forwarded too.

jewelisheaven Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 If you can't even get > 1 Mbit download from http://www.slackware.com/torrents/ there's a problem apart from uT settings. Are you running any filtering software? Are you forwarded through your router or modem (if applicable)? You will know this is the case if you see 192.168.x.x as the WAN IP Address on your router.
