GTHK Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I thought it was Drain Heart, or is that just parts 1 to 4..My knowledge is focused just a little more around networking, spybot is more for computer screw ups (already have it for immunizing Firefox), which while I can help with that, I don't have as much knowledge as say jewelisheaven, Firon, Ultima, DWK. Switeck seems to be the speed/ISP-throttling guy. You learn though if you stick around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drragostea Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Really? How did Spybot do that? It's just adding killbits.When you mean throttling... do you mean like ISP's interfering and slowing down torrents?I can't stick around and help because I'm unfamiliar with LinkSys and Belkin routers/modems.--Drain Heart... if you're right is right. For the original series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Verizon FiOS as far as I and I think Ultima have heard is fine. There cellular 'net access is way to expensive though. And Spybot has an immunization feature, it adds bad URL's to the images block list and crap, also effects Internet Explorer and the hosts file.

drragostea Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Well all is well.Unless there is any other problems I will report back. So far I've set my limits to:~Download= Unlimited~Upload= 9kbI'm get a steady 55-60kb/sec. Is there a way to make it faster or I can just leave it?SKIEEETTTHHH!Anyways, I plan to install a good Firewall despite the constant 'harass' of Defense+.I don't think it will conflict with the connection as long as I allow uTorrent.

GTHK Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Ummmm, not sure, what were your speed test results? And DSL or ADSL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drragostea Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Looks like I didn't see your post .My connection is a 768kbps. Nevermind then, because I thought download speed for Firefox is 80kb/sec. So I thought it would apply to uTorrent. Lols, I actually thought the DNA from BitTorrent will actually "speed up" my downloads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 768 Kbps / 8 = 96 KBps so 80 would be good. Did you test with OpenOffice? My cable connection nets me 750+ KBps (or 6000 kbps, note the lowercase . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drragostea Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I think so and it got me up to 77-80kb/sec.What is the difference between KBps and kbps?Am I limiting something incorrectly? Or just the settings? I'm supposed to get around 70-79, however I'm receiving 54.3kB/sec. uTorrent listed as a capital B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Lower case b is bits, an upper case b is bytes. Speed in µT is in bytes, except on the speed guide dialog, ISP's tend to tell you the speed in bits since it makes it look bigger. As far as your settings, I really don't know, 54 ish might be right for DSL. You can try Switecks suggested settings: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=34259And you could probably squeeze a bit more out by disabling features you don't need: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drragostea Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I squeezed my upload limit to 8kB and it faster. I attempted to push for a little bit more for limiting it at 7kB and it dropped to 36kB/sec and then rose to 73kB as a peak.I don't think I can squeeze any more as it might impact my download speeds.

GTHK Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Hey. Hey! Leave some upload so other people can get something, or set an alternate rate for when not downloading :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drragostea Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 That was exactly what I was doing. I set upload to unlimited at first, but it was overkill for my connection.I see a lot of users having low download speeds. Probably they didn't have their ports forwarded.What's your icon about?

jewelisheaven Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Animated PNG support is lacking in many "current" browsers as it's a relatively newer extension to the PNG standard. Firefox 3 displays it, but not the current 3.1 Safari for ex, and certainly not IE.Low download speeds usually are the result of poor peer statistics. Forwarding allows you to connect to more peers by serving as the receiving end. You still put out as many requests as before, but you're able to now have your phone pick-up (ring-- unfirewalled). This makes it appear that your performance is better because the data is spread over more peers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTHK Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I just wish the size limit was greater, I was only able to have 3 frames.

drragostea Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Great. We have more people hijacking this thread. *cough. skperfect.@GTHK, but isn't one of those animated avatars... greater in size?Also, I was thinking about giving BitTorrent's DNA a shot. Found out that I didn't enable it yet. Do you think it will make my downloads faster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Not a clue. When I read about it last year or two, I think it said something about looking for similar pieces of data to use.Um.. yes? It IS made of several images. I wonder if I could have encoded the first frame better, I don't remember how I did that one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Separate discussion of APNG should be split What you did was actually use the PNG as your "Your browser does not support this AnimatedPNG", the "graphic" 2 frames is actually in the sPNG chunks or whatever.DNA ... depending on what version you're playing with is either just a no-GUI uT, or a hidden uT with some extra features. Try as I might I wasn't able to "port" DNA files/torrents into a "real" uT. Something about non-standard .TORRENT structure or extra hash verification.Your pictures.. Huawei shows up on here as a bit of a troublesome sort. Have you tried in an IP address which is between 150 and 250 and NOT 30? DHCP ranges sometimes cause trouble. As far as your rule the only possibility I see is that you are NOT on the correct IP address as shown from start->run->cmd /k ipconfig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 I know, I was talking about optimizing the PNG's that made it up. I wasn't sure if I made the no support PNG as small as possible. I did . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
