EricSS Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Hi, I just installed windows7 from xp and this problem arose.As you can see my upload speed is terrible, and I am connected to none of the peers.Now before my upload wasnt that great either, just about 50kB/s, but it was a ton better than now.Ive already tried a ton of stuff.This img was taken while my computer had the following:Windows Firewall offThe computer was the DMZ designated computer on my router.Its a new windows install, so there are no other programs working against me at the moment.After a d/l has finished, the torrent just sits there like its not even active, no data transfer whatsoever, maybe a byte here are there to some random peer, but usually nothing. =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 0 peers in swarm...and you're not likely to get any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricSS Posted January 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Im not sure of the differance between swarm and 0 of X, but I am running a torrent right now with the same problem and there are 82 in swarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Reported and actual almost always differ. If there's lots of seeds present, peers are typical short-lived...especially on small torrents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricSS Posted January 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Ok, still need help. Apparently I only connect to seeds and not peers, so on torrents that have few seeds my d/l speeds are terrible.This was not a problem with me just a couple weeks ago before I upgraded to win 7.

Switeck Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 So is uTorrent firewalled or not? (green light at center bottom?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricSS Posted January 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Green Light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Did you try the test torrents mentioned in 1st link in my signature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricSS Posted January 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 I did the Glasnost test and my uploads were fine. The links to the test torrents gave me the same results of VERY slow uploads, and me not connecting to peers, only seeds. =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 The test torrents I would expect to have very few and very short-lived peers.Also, those peers you do manage to connect with are potentially overloaded trying to download from everyone else at once.This would also be the case under most private trackers.

EricSS Posted January 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Ok, one more thing, My peer list used to always be full of tons of peers, whether they were d/ling from me or not.Now my Peers list on any torrent is always empty, with the occasional peer appearing and the disappearing from the list. ANy thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Torrents don't really have many peers?Your uTorrent settings somehow make this problem worse?(list your Speed Guide CTRL+G settings and linespeed max down and up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
