spidermonkey666 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 i am having a problem with my client. i am using version 2.0 build 18934 and whenever i set a max upload speed my download speed drops to a ridiculously low rate. how can i resolve this issue (short of changing to a different client)?
cupra777 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 this happend to me alot when using bitatorrent and utorrent (previous versions) and still does with newer versions

Switeck Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 It's because of calculating overheads and having them also affected by the speed limiter.Try turning off net.calc_overhead in preferences, advanced settings.Here's my screenshot of setting DL max to 1 KB/sec killing UL speeds:http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/9223/utlowdlkillsul.png...Oddly, the speed die-off isn't near-instantaneous like I expected it would be!From the opposite side of the problem...:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=71002...Though in that case download and upload activities rose so much (LAN-speed local peers/seeds!) as to cripple other traffic -- rather than lowering the upload/download limiters in uTorrent. It's much the same cause/effect relationship though.
spidermonkey666 Posted April 13, 2010 Author Report Posted April 13, 2010 thanks guys, i will give this a try when i get home and report back!
spidermonkey666 Posted April 14, 2010 Author Report Posted April 14, 2010 bad news.....net.calc_overhead was already set to false. anyone have any other suggestions?edit: here are the requested screenshotsbandwidth: http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/8648/90577879.jpgqueueing: http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/1286/98519499.jpgi have made no changes to the program since installing it so this is the default config.
Switeck Posted April 15, 2010 Report Posted April 15, 2010 1st and 2nd links in my signature...you seem to be having other speed problems as well.
spidermonkey666 Posted April 16, 2010 Author Report Posted April 16, 2010 can you elaborate what you mean by other speed problems? my download speeds are really good pretty much all the time.
Switeck Posted April 16, 2010 Report Posted April 16, 2010 If net.calc_overhead was already set to false, then the problem is something other/more than the links I posted earlier.Your upload speed is often a clearer sign of problems, if you're on a torrent with many peers connected to you that want to download from you. If your upload speed is running even 5 KB/sec below what you set the max to...there may be issues!
spidermonkey666 Posted April 17, 2010 Author Report Posted April 17, 2010 so i want to make sure i am understanding what you are saying here. if someone is downloading from me, it should always be hitting what i have set as the max upload speed, no matter what? how can i verify how many peers want to download from me in a swarm? i often hit the max upload speed, depending on the torrent of course...
Switeck Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 If you have "enough" peers trying to download from you, you should be able to reach max upload speed...barring interference of course. So if you're not reaching max much of the time, start looking for what might be interfering...software firewalls, bad routers, wireless/USB networking, hostile ISPs, etc.
spidermonkey666 Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Posted April 19, 2010 ok, i have looked through a ton of the threads here and i dont know if its the swarm, connected clients, or what. so I have tweaked some of the settings based upon what you have listed in your sig. i would really like to get this fixed, it looks like its an overall upload speed problem that depends upon the torrent. some of the torrents have really high upload speeds and some dont. 99% of my torrents are coming from private trackers.here are screenshots of most of my settings screens within preferences. all of the advanced settings have been reset to default. i am currently running windows firewall only and it has the utorrent exceptions as both inbound and outbound rules. none of the network status lights in the utorrent status bar are red. all are green for the uploads and blue for the downloads. here are screenshotsqueueing:connection:bittorrent:bandwidth:speed guide shows this:which is very inaccurate as there are no servers for me to test on that are anywhere near me. here are some other various speed test resultsnote...this image was taken while utorrent was running.note...the following images were taken with utorrent disabled.for some reason the speedtest.net server in tokyo is gone (i am currently in japan), so i have to use the one in okinawa, which is considerably farther away. here is the results i get from the okinawa serverhere are some of the results i was getting from the tokyo server when it was still therenet.max_halfopen is set to 400 and i have never modified the TCPIP.sys file.OS is windows 7 ultimate x64security software installed (and running in the background) MS Security Essentials. Windows Firewall. security software installed (and NOT running in the background) Webroot Spy Sweeper with anti-virusRouter is a Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH. Modem is the modem that has been issued by the japanese ISPSoftbank which is piped through an NTT fiber optic connection.i recently purchased a new computer and it has replaced my old computer and that is when the new issues started to happen. i dont think i have the same issues on my linux puter using transmission (i have used it a couple times for torrenting and it was fast and the upload speeds were good but the processor couldnt really keep up), but its a netbook so its not very good for torrenting. can you help me fix this issue? could it just be the peers that are downloading from me that arent downloading at a quick speed? or what?
Switeck Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 Speed tests when uTorrent is running are nearly worthless.You're getting results across-the-board, from almost as slow as I have (6/1) to 80/50...because of that.
spidermonkey666 Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Posted April 19, 2010 only 1 speed test was run while utorrent was running and thats the one with the tachometer looking thing. everything else was done without utorrent running. so what are your suggestions?
Switeck Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 What's the fastest speed uTorrent can upload stably?Start with the 30 mbit/sec settings in 2nd link of my signature and raise *ONLY* the upload speed till uTorrent does not upload smoothly at that limit.
spidermonkey666 Posted April 20, 2010 Author Report Posted April 20, 2010 thats what im trying to tell you dude, i dont know how much it can upload stably. on my old computer there were no issues, i would get constant upload speeds that would be much higher than now (easily over 200kb/s constant). now i get spikes where it hits the max setting (currently at 332kb/s) and then it goes back down to a much lower rate. you keep referring me to your links, i have followed all of the steps in your links and it has not solved anything. what do i do from here?
Switeck Posted April 20, 2010 Report Posted April 20, 2010 Last post of 1st link in my signature.There's a ton of stuff we don't know that could allow ALL of this to make sense.Bad router? Malware on your computer? Someone leeching your connection?
spidermonkey666 Posted April 20, 2010 Author Report Posted April 20, 2010 OK, I'll bite. there is ABSOLUTELY no malware on my system and my hijack this log will reflect that. so here is all the info. i appreciate the help but you are being VERY ambiguious. so i am just gonna repost all the stuff i have already posted plus the hijack this log.Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.2Scan saved at 23:58:38, on 2010/04/20Platform: Unknown Windows (WinNT 6.01.3504)MSIE: Internet Explorer v8.00 (8.00.7600.16385)Boot mode: NormalRunning processes:C:\Program Files (x86)\Dell DataSafe Local Backup\Components\scheduler\STService.exeC:\Program Files (x86)\Dell DataSafe Local Backup\Toaster.exeC:\Program Files\OSD\Launch_CC.exeC:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel Matrix Storage Manager\IAAnotif.exeC:\Program Files\Alienware\Command Center\AlienwareAlienFXController.exeC:\Program Files (x86)\DVICO\TViXNetShare\TViXNetShare.exeC:\Users\Nick\AppData\Roaming\Dropbox\bin\Dropbox.exeC:\Program Files\Alienware\Command Center\AlienSense\FATrayMon.exeC:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\PowerDVD8\PDVD8Serv.exeC:\Program Files (x86)\CyberLink\Shared Files\brs.exeC:\Program Files\Alienware\Command Center\AlienSense\FATrayAlert.exeC:\Program Files\Alienware\Command Center\AlienFXHook32Mngr.exeC:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exeC:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exeC:\Windows\SysWow64\Macromed\Flash\FlashUtil10e.exeC:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exeC:\Users\Nick\Desktop\pxp\procexp.exeC:\Program Files (x86)\Trend Micro\HijackThis\HijackThis.exeF2 -

just bypassed the router, flushed the DNS and did an ipconfig /release and /renew. this changed nothing. i have also tried resetting the modem to no avail.
Switeck Posted April 20, 2010 Report Posted April 20, 2010 "Test your connection with Glasnost to make sure your ISP isn't throttling BitTorrent (and check this thread for a compiled list of ISPs known to throttle) -its not and here are the results."From that results, I'd say Glasnost failed horribly. Surely your connection isn't limited to ~3000 kilobits/second?! I get 2-4 times that on download myself!"Exact router model(s), and exact modem model - listed in a previous post, buffalo wzr-hp-g300nh"That router should be good. You using Tomato or dd-wrt on it?
spidermonkey666 Posted April 21, 2010 Author Report Posted April 21, 2010 not using any custom firmware on the router.so what do i do from here dude? i posted all the requested info. and i know my connection shouldnt be limited to that, i should be getting way way more. something is amiss and i want to figure out what it is.
markiecork Posted April 21, 2010 Report Posted April 21, 2010 I have use bittorrent.This two setting upload speed in a bittorrent.1. The more upload you give out to other peers, the more download you will get back from them.2. If upload is set too high, or to unlimited, download speed will suffer as needed communications from your computer will not have room to get out.
Switeck Posted April 21, 2010 Report Posted April 21, 2010 spidermonkey666, considering even Glasnost failed horribly...go complain to your ISP, it's nothing *I* can fix!
spidermonkey666 Posted April 22, 2010 Author Report Posted April 22, 2010 actually i called them last night. its a strange setup they got running. you technically have 2 ISPs with my setup. so i called one, we bypassed their router (their router is very passive and acts more like an identifier to their pppoe system. essentially i have 2 routers in my setup but the settings on ISP 1's "router" are all turned off, allowing the buffalo router to control everything) and ran direct from the modem, ran a speed test and i still couldnt get outta the 20's for download and it could only muster about 13ish for the upload. so we called ISP 2 and they are sending out a tech on sunday to investigate. as we ran straight from the modem and saw no increase there is definately something wrong on the back end. glad to see its not the fault of utorrent (which i kinda figured). thanks for checkin out me stuff.
Switeck Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 It was just inexplicable how wide of results your speed tests were.With 2 ISPs, I guess there's more potential points of failure.
spidermonkey666 Posted April 22, 2010 Author Report Posted April 22, 2010 lol i agree. naturally is pisses me off to have such a huge speed hit. hopefully it will get all fixed up on sunday. i there is really only 1 ISP and the second one really just get you a discount. its hard to explain how the system is setup here. i will report back on sunday after the dude comes and checks it out and report my results.
