linalax Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 hi everybody, i am new here and desperately need your help.been using torrent long time now, everything great until yesterday. i changed my wireless from a philips to a baudtec and since then the speed is ranging from 10 to nothing, the sign is almost always yellow except some rare minutes now and then that turns green but for just a little while and the number of seeds and peers that are shown as on line are always 1 or 2. I tried almost everything i read in the forums, i disabled all firewalls and stuff, i forwarded my port manually, i dont know what else to do. i dont know much about this stuff anyway. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 uTorrent's encryption settings probably need to be increased for you to have ANY chance of getting a download/upload speed faster than 1 KB/sec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linalax Posted September 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 ok, could you tell me how to do this? i followed all the links you mentioned and did everything till now.i downloaded openoffice and it worked very quickly. now some times the sign turns red.help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 µTorrent's "Forced" for outgoing encryption with "Allow legacy incoming connections" unchecked.DISABLE: UPnP, NAT-PMP LPD, DHT (both kinds!), and Resolve IPs (right-click in PEERS window on an active torrent).That should eliminate UDP packets from uTorrent. You only need to port forward TCP this way. Some routers do not handle UDP and TCP forwarded to the same port reliably.Keep Peer Exchange enabled...it should be encrypted due to above settings.

linalax Posted September 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 did almost everything u said and things look better, i cant do the resolve IPs on the peers, i right clicked but there is no such choice!another q i have is whether i should check on my IP's interface the TCP choice that you mentioned?the strange thing now is that although i have a red sigh it seems to download faster! how is this possible? i am very confused!really thanks for all the advice!

Switeck Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 1st link in my signature for your red light problems...Resolve IPs can only be disabled on an ACTIVE torrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
