SwashbucklinSam Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 I've had uTorrent for about a week now and with some tinkering have managed to raise the speed to 30-50 KB/ps. I tested my internet speed and found that the speed should be closer to 300-400 KB, which it has reached on a couple of occasions, but only appeared to be connection spikes. I've made uTorrent an exception on my two known firewalls, Windows Firewall and McAfee SecurityCenter. I've also followed the step by step instructions on how to forward the port for my particular router, which didn't affect the speed in any way. I was wondering if anyone had any tips on what I should try next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwashbucklinSam Posted October 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Ok, current status with the port checker is red, I got denied even after using the port forwarding guide. The port number is 12228. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
