frombie Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 I currently use uTorrent 1.7.7 (build 8179) as my torrent client.The ProblemWhen I create a torrent and upload it, I don't connect to anyone who is trying to download, even if there are 7 or more trying to download from me. If I do connect, the connection is short lived, for no longer than a minute, I'll upload a meg or two and then the torrent will promptly disconnect.This will happen when all other torrents are switched off and uTorrent is closed down and re-started. I have no problem connecting to and seeding back files that I download.The FactsI am fully connectable and port is opened.Torrent is created in uTorrent.After uploading the torrent, the torrent I have uploaded is deleted and a new torrent is downloaded and directed to the file.The torrent checks and moves to completed/seeding.Initial-Seeding is checked in torrent properties (no different when just seeding).Bandwidth allocation is set to *High*.I have a VDSL connection.I installed another client called "Deluge" and it connected and seeded the files without any problems at, at a respectable speed.The SolutionI'm hoping that some one here can supply that.Thanks in advance.....Frombie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Have you tried 1.8 yet?I suspect ISP interference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 I read something about Deluge being able to get around ISP interference, you can try the 1.8 alpha, self-contained for testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frombie Posted March 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 I seriously doubt it is my ISP as live in South Korea. I have uploaded on torrents that I have snatched at 300 kBs and download at 1.4 mBs.The problem only exists on torrents that I have created and uploaded.No, I haven't tried 1.8 yet, I think that is an alpha version. Off to check on that wild statement now.I was just perusing the "slow speed" forum and made some changes in my preferences, I'll see what that does for me as well.Cheers for the responses.....

jewelisheaven Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 It's ISP interference. It doesn't mean it's YOUR ISP though. The How-To lists process to follow to find where the stickler is. 1.8 implements the same workarounds found in Deluge which is why DWKnight suggested it.
