I was using utorrent for about a week and a half, then one day the yellow symbol at the bottom appeared. I went from around 200kb/s to >o.1Kb/s. my isp is Verizon access manager (a mobile internet card) my firewall is non-existent and I did all of the common procedures. I didn't try forwarding a port because it worked for a week or so. Assistance would be most appreciated. Thank you.

If I'm not mistaken you are firewalled. It's how verizon works. Are you sure you didn't get crippled due to breaking their 5Gig limit? "Unlimited" data is ~ 10-15/mo. and it's not unlimited. It's just higher than their default pittance.

Can you still download the test torrents from http://utorrent.com/setup_guide.php ? OpenOffice and Slackware should download at your sustained download speed. If they have trouble connecting to trackers or peers it may point you see what changed.
