Saggers Posted August 1, 2010 Report Share Posted August 1, 2010 Tried bumping an old thread 5 days ago but didn't work soWas downloading a torrent at around 200kb/s went to get a drink it was on 0.1. Have left it for hours and no improvement, I then turned my router, a Netgear Dg834G off for the night to no avail. (annoying because the torrent was 92% sad )The tick at the bottom is green but if I run a test, it either gives me a red cross for test one and a yellow tick with an asterix for test 2, or two red crosses. The errors given are either 10053 or 10060.I have tried the following things I have found online;1). Checked all firewall settings, and port forwards.2). Recreated the exception rules3) Disabled DHT4). Enabled access data sources across domains5). Updated the client^). Changed speed test locationsI'm not the most tech savy so no big words please I'd appreciate any help at all, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paintball9 Posted August 1, 2010 Report Share Posted August 1, 2010 Are you sure the torrent is even alive, Is there any seeders? What is the availablity (avail tab)? if its 0.92* then the torrent probably won't finish unless a seeder comes back. You would have been download at 200 from the peers who only have 92 percent but there isn't anyone online that has the other 8 percent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Each seed connected to you adds 1 to availability.So if your availability figure for that torrent is only 1.918 ...you're not connected to more than 1 seed and probably have few peers as well.Do note that the reported seeds and peers are almost always optimistic -- most are dead and gone.
