2002thx1138 Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Hi all, it's my first post here, so be gentle I have only recently started using using utorrent, and have been having trouble with a download which seems to be exceedingly slow.The torrent is fairly big at 7.8Gb, and it seems that there's only one seed. There are about 60 peers though, so I thought it should speed up after a while, as we all get hold of different pieces, but it never seems to - every so often all the peers get stuck all at the same percentage, and the seed seems to disappear for a couple of days.It's as if all the peers are downloading the same pieces of the files? Or could it just be limited by the seeder?I haven't seen this before, as all my other torrents seem to down and upload just fine.The torrent has been downloading for about 3 months now!Any suggestions? Or do I just have to wait it out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Could be fake, you could also try waiting it out, running a search on the torrent info-hash to find another tracker with the same file and add the tracker, or finding another torrent with the same material. What IPa ranges do you see on the peers tab? 38 something is fake, I don't remember exactly what.. I think 38.100/16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2002thx1138 Posted May 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 definitely not fake, it's made up of a bunch of seperate mp3s of a uk radio show, and a few of the files have come down and are ok. There is only one torrent for it.Will try and find another tracker though, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
