esophagus Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 For a few days I've been using uTorrent and everything has been downloading fine. Port appeared to be open, and I was getting speeds over 150K. Then, all of a sudden, yesterday things slowed to a halt. The connection icon now seems to change sporadically between red, yellow, and green (with yellow the most frequent) and my speeds have dropped to almost nothing. I think 40k is where I've maxed at, but in general I'm stuck somewhere between 10-20. Can't figure out why this would happen. Never changed anything with my router, anti-virus, or firewall. I've tried shutting off both the anti-virus and the firewall, and it doesn't change a thing. Internet is still working great, speeds there are fine.Anyone have any ideas?Software: uTorrent 1.8.1System: Windows XP 2002 SP2Antivirus: Avast! 4.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
