Very slow downloads

[Hajimeru]

I read most of the stickies in this forum and i still can't fix my problem. Basically my utorrent doesn't download or connect to any peers. Im not using any wireless router and there's a green check sign in utorrent. Any suggestions?

BIG strike. Set to 8 or less. Increasing this limit above the default causes more problems than it attempts to solve.

# What the Speed Guide shows your settings to be (press Ctrl+G in µTorrent)-xx/1mb

Should NOT be used because the settings are NOT based on your download speed. Use xx/384kbit because of:

If you've ever set uTorrent based on any YouTube videos...that may explain your terrible results.

If so, you'll probably need to reset uTorrent's settings to fix the damage it's done.
