Switeck Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 20 megabit/sec upload connection? I doubt it...unless it's a really expensive fiber optic line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 Even the 1 megabit/sec upload settings from 2nd link in my signature may be too much for your connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 It has to do with the fact that your settings, which you have mistakenly based on your connection's download speed, are NOT appropriate for your connection at all.Start your settings over and re-follow the setup guides.

juggler73 Posted September 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 i hadnt changed anything until i started having problems.i never mess with the setting normaly cause it worked great from the off but its not working as it should nowit didnt matter how many torrents i had going if i started a new torrent it would download straight away but now it dont but it seems worse now if i restart utorrent it only starts 2 - 3 downloads and the rest only start when i pause my uploads which isnt how it been for the time ive been using utorrent which is yearsnow my uploads arent even seeding, great!!!!

DreadWingKnight Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Are you going to reset your settings and follow our setup guides or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juggler73 Posted September 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 ive even installed bittorrent 6.2 which to me is the same as utorrent and it does the same thing so go figure.ive go over and over your setting and its not done a thing i even started with just 10 torrents only and added 1 download and it didnt start until i paused a upload Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Some confusion here...You (juggler73) said, "its not helped ive still only got 10 active connections"Later you said, "i even started with just 10 torrents only and added 1 download and it didnt start until i paused a upload"Are you confusing torrents for active connections (peers/seeds)?Are there tracker issues OR half open limits being exceeded?

DreadWingKnight Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 What settings do you currently have now that you've re-done the settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juggler73 Posted September 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 @Switecki was testing with 10 torrents that was seeding only, then i started a torrent that hadnt finished downloading and it just sits there not connecting to any of the seeders or peers but as soon as i pause the torrents that are seeding the downloading torrent starts.@DreadWingKnightreinstalled utorrent so its all default set connection type to xx20mbitupload limit 2.1max active torrents 15max active downloads 15 upload slots 30connections 850but with 10 seeding torrents only a new download wont start until i pause the 10 seeding torrentsits doing my head in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Ah, uTorrent is reacting hostilely to you using the wrong speed settings.You should be using xx/1mbit OR LESS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 What do you think the xx means in xx/20mbit?You think it means that if you have 20mbit download that you're using the right settings?You're wrong. It means that it doesn't matter what the download speed is, you use your UPLOAD SPEED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juggler73 Posted September 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 so i can only download and seed 5 torrents at one time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Mainly because that's all your connection is capable of doing effectively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 uTorrent's default settings is to NOT count started torrents that either have no seeds+peers OR are downloading+uploading less than 1 KB/sec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
