Switeck Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 Is uTorrent firewalled (red or yellow light at bottom)?1st link in my signature for that...You should be able to upload faster with an upload speed max in uTorrent at or below your connection's sustainable max upload speed.2nd link in my signature for that.

waterpistol Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 i followed your second link as i am not hindered by my firewall. i have got 100.0 Mbps so am still unsure why i'm uploading at around 5 kbps. can it be something to do with the torrent? i mean if it's not in high demand? i am not downloading anything but have got two films seeding.the films are:#1 seeds 0(31) peers 20(48) and the other is#2 seeds 0(5) peers 9(14).thanks.

Switeck Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 I sincerely doubt Telewest/Blueyonder Cable in the UK gives 100 megabits/second connections.Perhaps you mean your LAN ethernet is running at 100 megabits/second?Your internet connection's download speed is likely 1/10th of that or less.Your internet connection's upload speed is likely 1/100th of that or less.I hope you haven't been trying to use the default settings or xx/100mbit setting in Speed Guide (CTRL+G) in uTorrent, since it's quite obvious your connection can't handle it.

waterpistol Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 ah! the old (ctrl+g) trick has worked and i've now set my connection speed accordingly. many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 You set it based on your max sustainable upload speed, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterpistol Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 err... 1mbps...? doesn't seem to have slowed my internet down much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I don't know if 1 megabits/second is your max upload speed.That what speed tests say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterpistol Posted July 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 an educated guess, i should probably be running at 100kbps if i've got a maximum speed of 100Mbps? it seems to be working alright though now.cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 You never had a "100Mbps" internet connection.That's your top LAN (computer-to-computer) speeds.100 KiloBYTES/second upload in uTorrent is around 1 megabits/second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
