zijin_cheng Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 hi, my utorrent did not work before reinstalling xp but after reinstalling it does. I can download at about 30kb/s for a whole night. When i restarted my pc it was fast for a few more hours then slowed down to 6-7kb/s. I deleted the torrent I was downloading and started again. It then showed me "tracker sending invalid data <null>". If DHT is not enabled, not a single soul seeding on a 300 seed torrent. If DHT is on, then I get mebbe 20-30 people and no one is uploading to me. I have a netgear WG111T wireless usb adapter connected to a speedstream modem. My speed is currently 0.7-0.1kb/s.These are my settings: max download + max upload = 0 Global max # connections = 800 Max connected peers per torrent = 125 Upload slots = 4 All checkboxes in that window checked (utorrent 1.7.5) Max # of active torrents = 3 Max # of active downloads = 2 All other settings defaultHelp!!!

Ultima Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Horrible settings, especially considering the fact that (1) you're using wireless, and (2) you're using a USB adapter. You're going to need to scale those numbers back considerably -- follow the Speed Guide's suggestions properly by selecting the correct upload rate for your connection. In fact, you might want to consider selecting a preset one lower than the upload rate, since your network device might not be able to handle the number of connections too well.

jewelisheaven Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Go back to your Speed Guide (Ctrl-g) and set for your UPLOAD speed. Unlimited upload is not wise. You may need to verify your rules / forwarding for the firewall / security software you run.Additionally what changed between the forwarded and "working" state after a reinstall and NOW.Have you gone through http://utorrent.com/setup_guide.php? Have you tested http://slackware.com/torrents/ ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zijin_cheng Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Its not that after setting these settings that utorrent was slow, but I've always had high speeds such as 150-80kb/s, and i don't see why i suddenly should be getting 0.1kb/s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 If you're getting those slow speeds even on slackware it's an ISP interference problem most likely. If the hardware settings haven't changed it means they're not the bottleneck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zijin_cheng Posted April 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Every time I reinstall xp the speed goes back to normal, then when i restart my pc the speed goes down to 1kb/s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
