WishesofMisery Posted June 5, 2013 Report Posted June 5, 2013 Update: So....after searching on the internet and reading the guides, it looks like i have to forward the port that's is currently used by utorrent (currently it's 55500) so the speed go back to normal, i tried to do that but i failed here what i came to I understand that port mapping varies from one router to another, but if you could help me with anything I tried several times but every time i check it tells me the port is not open, so is there anything you can tell to me from the picture, Note: for some reason i have several DHCPs (192.168.1.3-7) i don't know if that's normal Note #2: The router is Huwaei echolife BM635Note#3: i guess the problem is with me that i don't know where to put the utorrent port there is two fields one says internal port and the other says external port, and if one is reserved to the port that is used by utorrent what to put in the other field.Note#4: My IP addres is: 192.168.1.2, my external IP addres is: 37.220.112.182http://s10.postimg.org/t2w5kzbeh/image.jpgAny Help would be truly appreciated thanks the old topicHi, as the addres suggests for some reason my speed is not normal until yesterday every thing was fine, but today the speed dropped significantly and i don't know whyusually my download speed is 90-120 Kb/s and my upload speed is 10-20 Kb/s and now i am getting 10 Kb/s and 1Kb/sI tried to reinstall the program several times through clean installs (removed the registry data, the app data files, and did an uninstall from the uninstall or change programs) but it didn't worki tried to go through the setup guide, adjust the values to the suggested values, but it didn't work neither note that i had this problem before for few days about three months ago, but the problem gone automatically and every thing was back to normal.but now i have this problem again and i don't why, currently i have uninstalled the program completely i never had to adjust the values before, and last time i had that problem i didn't have to changes any values too...any suggestion would be appreciated thank you two pieces of information that might help: 1- there is this rare moments when the speed go up to its typical rates before it drops down quickly to crappy rate.2- i guess there is a problem when trying to connect with peers, the seeds number looking good, but the peers number are dead low (varying between 3 to 0) which apparently is the problem.

Andreasvb Posted June 5, 2013 Report Posted June 5, 2013 Try a torrent here http://slackware.com/getslack/torrents.php
WishesofMisery Posted June 5, 2013 Author Report Posted June 5, 2013 Thank you for your respond i tried out the torrent file you provided me with and here is the resultwas the same the speed average is 26 Kb/s and the upload speed average is 0it's so frustrating, again any suggestion would be greatly appreciated
WishesofMisery Posted June 5, 2013 Author Report Posted June 5, 2013 another piece of information: there's this rare moments when the speed go up to its typical rates but then it drop back quickly again to crappy rates..............
WishesofMisery Posted June 5, 2013 Author Report Posted June 5, 2013 another thing i just noticed and think might help, apparently there's a problem when trying to connect with peers, the seeds number are good and stable, but the peers are varying between 3 and 0 even tghough the torrent has a good number of peers.
WishesofMisery Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Posted June 7, 2013 a new piece of information: Recently i changed my modem place from my bedroom to the living room in order to cover more space inside the house, does that changed anything in terms of the portsi don't know actually, what i am trying right know to enable encryption but it has only limited effect again i never had to change any settings and every thing was perfect until now.....
ciaobaby Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 Recently i changed my modem place from my bedroom to the living room in order to cover more space inside the houseYou do realise that with the way that radio signals propagate from the antenna at the frequencies used for 802/11, being physically HIGHER will giver better coverage
WishesofMisery Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Posted June 7, 2013 Thank you ciobaby for your respond, and for that information....anyway, frankly i don't care because i just wanted internet access in certain area of the house and i now have that, what it really matters does changing the modem place affect the torrent in way or another? and if i returned it the way it was before would everyting get back to normal? and how i can negate that effect?hope you can answer soon thanks
ciaobaby Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 Check that the listen port is still forwarded and that your machine is being assigned the same IP. Some routers may reset to factory defaults if the power is off for more than a few minutes.
WishesofMisery Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Posted June 8, 2013 OK , i recently installed Kaspersky internet security 2013,, i actually don't know if he are firewalling utorrent i checked and it does not seem that he is blocking it, but what about TCP ingoing / outgoing how i can configure it properly or check to see if he is i found a comment explaining how to do it but it was from 2006, i guess things changed a lot since thenany help how to configure Kaspersky internet security 2013 firewall so he does not cobnflict with utorrent thanks Edit: i just tried to shut down Kasper and the speed remained awfully low, so i guess Kasper has nothing to do with it, reminder: currently the only thing i did was enabling encryption, it had a little effect but still crappy..

WishesofMisery Posted June 19, 2013 Author Report Posted June 19, 2013 I guess the problem is with the port, i should have figured that out earlier, any help with that , the details are in the topicthanks
Andreasvb Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 Open it in your firewall.Also, put same port in both fields.You can even use DMZ to your computer, then you won't need to open any port to any program, ever.However, it's a bit more risky as every program can open a port.
WishesofMisery Posted June 19, 2013 Author Report Posted June 19, 2013 Thanks Andreasvb for your respond i did open it on my firewall (both windows's and kasper's)i am gonna go with the DMZ to see if it works thank you...hope i figure it out
Beasly Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 i did open it on my firewall (both windows's and kasper's)You don't need two firewalls running!
WishesofMisery Posted June 19, 2013 Author Report Posted June 19, 2013 Just after i enabled DMZ (assuming that the DMZ host address is my machine's IP) the speed has increased considerably but a bit after it went back to be awfully low...so i am gonna disable DMZ now with that being said,, that didn't solve the problem, i am starting to wonder if it has anything to do with my anti-virus although i made a rule to enable the utorrent port this getting way too frustrating but really thanks for your suggestion
ciaobaby Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 What do you have running that needs to be in a DMZ??And if your machine is behind a NAT router firewalls are totally unnecessary.
WishesofMisery Posted June 19, 2013 Author Report Posted June 19, 2013 Thank you ciaobaby and Beasly for responding i know that... i am disabling them but just in case, because i am a bit desperate the problem is do you know how to forward the port for that kind of router, or can you tell me what is the right values for the fields because i tried several times and i just can't do it right also even when i enabled DMZ nothing changed, in addition the download was off at some points is there anything left i can do?
Beasly Posted June 20, 2013 Report Posted June 20, 2013 Note#4: My IP address is: 192.168.1.2, my external IP address is: 37.220.112.182Assign a static IP for your computer because your screenshot shows your port forward config shows 192.168.1.3 or did you make a mistake!
WishesofMisery Posted June 20, 2013 Author Report Posted June 20, 2013 No,, I have a Static IP address, that's the DHCP Client (which for some reason i have 4, is that normal?)based on some tutorial that's the appropriate value for that field...
