usama Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 I really wanted to download a torrent but cant because µTorrent is not working! I was told to use µTorrent by a friend he said it was good. I have downloaded it installed it. Set the right upload speed. Put in the torrent and all I get it about 1 kb/s. Could someone please please help me. I don't think it's a firewall, because I installed it on another one of my computers that does not have a firewall and it still has the same problem. :( Could someone please please help me??

thelittlefire Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 So how fast does the slackware torrent download? What steps from the sticky have you followed for making your peer-to-peer presence less known to the ISP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usama Posted October 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 I have not downloaded the slackware torrent. And not done any steps from the sticky. I am with AOL on 8MB. From Speedtest.net I normally get 6900 kb/s download and 380 kb/s upload. And when downloading files from the internet they would download at 650-730 kb/s. My router is the Linksys WAG54GS. I have tried it on Windows XP SP2, and Vista HP 64-Bit. In my other post I did not mean to be horrible, I really really wanted to download something but I cant.

Switeck Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 I've already explained settings changes needed to even have a CHANCE of >20 KB/sec download speeds on my other post...if you haven't at least tried that, we can't really help you any further.
