ggbarnum Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 if you download a file from say symantec, what speeds do you get ?I always use www.norton.com/nis08 as a test file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilJack Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 I got between 200-300kb/s with that Norton thing, but with utorrent and limewire I get really low speed. I've turned my firewall off and it hasn't made a difference.I'm stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geddes-i Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 HelloI also experience slow speeds on utorrent (15-20kB/s max.) I have forwarded port and tried everything to max out connection but no luck.I tested that norton file = www.norton.com/nis08 and it was downloading at 250-300kB/s however utorrent and limewire are still really slow at downloading for me.So can anyone offer any help ? im currentley downloading a file with 145 seeders and 719 peers and the max its downloading at is 10kB/s.Also since limewire tends to go really slow for me as well im guessing its all p2p applications that i use will go slow, thing is i use to get great speeds but i dont know what has happened.So please help, cheers ppl i appreciate this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
