d_wujkowski Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Im running Windows XP SP2, Windows firewall. I'm having a problem with the speed and my trackers are offlines. I'm using Airlive 802.11G Wireless AP, could there be a firewall thats blocking me that I cannot access because of the Wireless AP(modem?)? Here are some screen shots.Originally Utorrent was working fine(except the speed was kinda slow) for about a week, then it stopped downloading. I enabled the protocol encryption thinking it might of been the ISP blocking, that solved the problem. But the speed is still kind of slow. I tried disabling the DHT network, the UPnP port mapping, the NAT PMP port mapping, and I adding utorrent to windows firewall with no luck. Any tips would be great.

Switeck Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 You SURE you have 1 megabit/second upload bandwidth?...like you told uTorrent to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_wujkowski Posted October 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Whoops. I guess I misread that, sorry. Ok, I lowered it to 400, helped a little but im still not getting max download speeds and I still have a yellow status and red arrows.

Switeck Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Are you getting max upload speeds?If your line isn't letting uTorrent upload as fast as you told uTorrent to...you may need to reduce settings further!2nd link in my signature.

d_wujkowski Posted October 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 I am hitting my max upload speed of 35 KB/s but sometimes it drops to less then 1 KB/s and hovers around there for a while. I have the download set to unlimited, but it is only hitting 200 (Downloading OpenOffice). I have my settings set to what you recommended for 384 KB/s. BTW, thanks for your help so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Try disabling LPD, DHT, UPnP, NAT-PMP, and Resolve IPs (right-click in Peers window of an active torrent)These should reduce the odds of a disconnect or speed drop due to networking overload.

buzzrap Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 I had similar probs but had just been provided with a new router by talktalk, didnt realise it had a firewall and when I disabled it everything went back to normal!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
