koberulz Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 Ever since I finally got uTorrent's port forwarded properly, my internet connection has been either slow or nonexistent 90% of the time. I've tried everything in this thread, but it doesn't seem to have had any effect. Even my torrents are mostly coming down at 2-5 kb/s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be sure that you aren't using your connection for any other reason besides testing, while testing. That means no downloading, no IMing, no µTorrent running, no browser activity (other than the testing), etc. Additionally, no other computer on your network (if any) should be using the connection. When you select a testing mirror, use the ones that are geographically closest to you.900 kb/s down, 145 kb/s up. Not really sure what type of connection it is, other than that it's not dialup.

Firon Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 Your upload speed is NOT 101kbyte/s.Open the Speed Guide and choose xx/128k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koberulz Posted December 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 Well that's the number I came up with following the instructions. Must've got kbits and kbytes confused or something.I had it running on my old computer with the xx/1MBit setting, and both browsing and the torrents were fine. Nothing about the internet connection is any different, yet it still doesn't work. I set it to 128k, forced a couple of torrents to start (I was going to bed, so browsing speed wasn't an issue), and now I've got one coming down at 110k off 4 seeders, and one at 20k off 9 seeders, which doesn't make much sense. And I can still browse fine despite being two torrents over the limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 "900 kb/s down, 145 kb/s up."If those numbers are in kilobits/second, then you CAN'T upload >100 KiloBYTES/second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
