golfgod Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 New user to the software - Was pegging at 300K and just loving the download speeds.I was downloading a torrent and watched the speed go from 277K to 5K.Happened in front of my eyes.Read all the setup info, did every suggestion I could find in the forums. Nothing works.VERY FRUSTRATING. My issues seems to be a common issue with a lot of folks in reading the forums.Have to think it's something else and not me. I can surf the net and fly. So the speed is there. Anybody have any ideas or suggestions other than what is posted already?Using Earthlink DSL.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Does the OpenOffice test torrents (mentioned in 1st link of my signature) also download at very low speeds?Tell us more about your connection.How fast is it both down AND up?What settings are you trying (and seem to be failing) to use in uTorrent?(Mainly the Speed Guide CTRL+G ones and any advanced settings you may have changed from default values.)

Switeck Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Is your upload speeds normally reaching the 35 KiloBYTE/second upload limit you told uTorrent to use?Does the OpenOffice test torrents (mentioned in 1st link of my signature) also download at very low speeds?

golfgod Posted January 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Yes, the upload speed is consistent at 35K.I did do the test with OpenOffice and just forgot to mention it. The MAX download speed was 29K on OpenOffice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
