Switeck Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 uTorrent is set based on your max sustained UPLOAD, which is likely much lower. 2nd link in my signature once you find out what your upload is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Upload you have more control over than download...Are you uploading smoothly at the max limit you set?Also, if you're uploading slowly like everyone else...your download is likely to be slow. Peers prefer to upload to other peers which give them a LOT back in return. Seeds don't care, but tend to upload LESS because they connect to only peers.

Switeck Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Max upload is probably worse than 10 KB/sec upload.The guides recommend setting upload to about 80% max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
