Torrentia Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Download speed from a peer using utorrent is only .5 or 1 or 2 kb/s. However a test of slackware10.2.iso, the download speed was 50 kb/sHow can I fix these horrible speeds. I have followed this site's setup guide for the utorrent settings. Also my question about ports is how do you know when one is faster than another.Do you just keep clicking random button and try several torrents to see which port is best?i HAVE THIS nis antivirus and I have done the following to try and download a torrent from a peer. The peer is connecting find with his other peers (others besides me)30272 tested port was forwarded properly.Changed router settings for Linksys wrk54g as followsBlock Anonymous Internet Requests: DisabledSet up static ip address, and added this port to port forwarding .In norton I unchecked the box for "MS Windows h.323 bo (2)"unchecked "invalid TCP Destination Portunder internet prevention signature names whic is under intrusion prevention.Under Personal Firewall Advance Settings.

Switeck Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Norton causes so many problems with uTorrent, that I suggest completely uninstalling all Norton products to test uTorrent without it.Use your router and Windows firewall for security without Norton while testing.

Dch48 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 I use NIS with no problems, the port I use is 47321 with UPnP and NAT unchecked. I don't know if the port used makes much of a difference though as long as it's forwarded properly for both tcp and udp. The router I use is a wired cheap walmart special from Network Everywhere/Linksys. NR041 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
