matman72 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 Hi, im new to this again, I used u/bitorrent a while ago. Now my daughters has been using it for all her teen tv shows:rolleyes:. But ive noticed as soon as she D/Ls she moves the file, so she aint seeding back much, if any. Ive explained to her to leave it there for a day to share the file. Anyway, im wondering if this has caused this:Downloading a lrge (5GB) file, my current rate is D/L-12kB/s...U/L-92kB/s, seeds:10(2613)...peers:28(8322)I,ve reduced the settings after hours of troubleshooting last night:My max upload rate is 7080 global connections40 peers per torrent3 slots per torrentspeed test:Up:838.85kbit/s(102)kB/sdown:8.72Mbit/s(1.0MB/s)In the setup guide i manually set it to 532kbit/sAny suggestions as to why I cant connect or dowload to the apparent thousands of seeds/peers available.thanx in advance.
DreadWingKnight Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 How many torrents active at once?Your disproportionate connection (10x download vs upload) may not be helping matters, but if your limits are set wrong, you will get this behavior.
matman72 Posted March 26, 2011 Author Report Posted March 26, 2011 Just the one DL right now.10x DL vs UL? sorry can you explain what you mean.do you mean the speeds im getting:UP vs Down?Ive read the faq, the setup guide, Im trying to get my head around it.thanx
DreadWingKnight Posted March 26, 2011 Report Posted March 26, 2011 http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 <-- this guide is the main one you should be following. the only thing you might need to do differently is to apply the rate limit for uTP connections.
matman72 Posted March 27, 2011 Author Report Posted March 27, 2011 i just tried slackware, DL went up to 6-700kB/s,so it must be the torrent,just gotta search for how to get around that.thanx againmatt
