porcupine Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Hello,Just wondering if anyone out there can sort out a small problem i have.I have checked up as much info. as possible but to be honest im not very tech minded so i apologise if i come across as a bit dim!The Problem-I surf and download quite alot and recently changed Broadband.What i have noticed since is that after browsing around on the net for a while i usully find something to download but i get VERY slow download speeds ( 0.1 - 2 kbs) even though there are loads of seeds.So what i do is re-boot my P.C and Router & then open UTorrent again.I then see a massive difference in speeds, almost 600-700 kbs.Im not at all sure why this is?I have set up U-torrent as instucted and forwarded a port/ set Windows Fire-wall properly.I am wired to my desktop and would prefer to stay that way.However i would go wireless if needed.(not tried it yet - need to buy adapter)My GearDell Dimension 3000Intel Pro/100 VE network connection (is this the problem??)D-Link DSL-264OR UTorrent - 1.8.3 BetaI just ran a speed test and - D - 6468 kbs U - 607 kbshelp would be appreciated.Thanks in advance.
