tygara_19 Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 I am having an issue with uTorrent.I have a bunch of torrents (one of them is the first in the top 10 in the torrent website and it sais it has 6000 + peers) but i get upload speeds of 2 kb/s. When i look at how many peers a torrent has it shows none for all my torrents, it is not possible that all of them have 0 peers. I am using a wi-fi network and my download speeds are fine (5 mb/s) and a speed test i did shows that my upload speeds are not bad either (2 mb/s).Excuse me if i have spelling mistakes, English is not my regular language.

ktetch Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Who says it's not possible?Torrent websites get peer info via a method called Scrape.These are easy to spoof, and frequently are on spam/false/malicious torrents. If there are no peers, there are no peers regardless of what the site says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tygara_19 Posted February 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I tried downloading the same torrent on both my pc-s than letting utorrent run on both of them and they dont show each other as peers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktetch Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 I never said the site was false, I said the stats it is reporting (from the tracker) may be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tygara_19 Posted February 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 I never said the site was false, I said the stats it is reporting (from the tracker) may be.Strangest thing is that when i download i get lots of peers(100's) but when the downloading finishes they just disappear.
