sportslad Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 Ok, so I have one file (audio) sized 198MB, 2(2) Seeds, 0(7) Peers is downloading at a rate of around 160kbAnd at the same time downloading another file (video) sized 699MB, 2(3) Seeds, 1(46) Peers and this is downloading at a rate of around 2.4kbHow can this be the case?I have an 8MB connection with Tiscali, never had any problems before I upgraded from 2MB a few weeks ago. I've run the tests to check if the connection is being throttled (it isn't) and done various changings to preference settings as suggested on the forum with no affect.I can have around 10 files (mainly video) downloading, but each will rarely get above 30kb.Any help would be greatly appreciatedKris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 1. Tiscali is known to throttle BitTorrent anyway.2. Just because you have good speeds from some peers doesn't mean all peers are fast. See the user manual's introduction to BitTorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportslad Posted January 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 Many thanks. If it is being throttled, what action can I take?I accept that some peers will have better speeds than others, but certainly that would not apply to all the material I am downloading?
