Abrupt Slow spped in BitTorrent

Yeah, so I just finished downloading a game a few days ago at 300kbps.

A few background info on my broadband.

Country: Singapore, Provider: Singnet.

Download speed of 3Mbits, upload speed is 0.15 or smth.

I have no idea why a few days later, the whole bittorrent decide to kick me in my face,

and have a ****ing slow speed of 0kps to 5kps, and i didnt do shit with it.

So I read a few guides and change my upload speed to 20% of its max,

and tried port fowarding. Previously, the port was 587... i forgot. Then i change it to 6881,

and then tried to port foward, but it failed. Here's a link to what I did:

Tried to use the tool to check if the actions were successful but it wasn't so HECK I'm here

hope you guys can help ):

Thanks in Advance

20% of your upload is only about 3 KB/sec.

Singnet in Singapore is one of the MOST hostile ISPs towards BitTorrent traffic in the world.

You probably need to use these settings:

(Note: My post immediately following that one explains what settings in uTorrent are similar to the Azureus ones.)

Hopefully, level 4 is good enough.

In particular, DISABLE: UPnP, NAT-PMP, LPD, DHT (both kinds!), and Resolve IPs (right-click in PEERS window on an active torrent).

this problem is back again. this time its worse.

0.1kb/s to 1.0kb/s after i tried to make it better. Previously it was 20++kb/s.

i tried to use your recommended settings for utorrent

For an example of more extreme "stealth" settings in uTorrent: (long-winded explanation of ISP throttling)

NOTE: Those settings probably won't really work for you, they were a special case for a wireless ISP!

...But I do a better job explaining what and why those settings are chosen.

Doesn't work.

My normal downloads still can reach 300++ kb/s. I have no idea why bittorrent cant

i'm singnet user too.

i noticed the slow down happens after severe typhoon hit taiwan.

news reported damaged communications cables, need a month to repair.

i did all the recommend settings - disabling UPnP, Nat-PMP, etc, etc...but still having slow dl.

anyway cut story short, uninstall IPv6 and dl speed seem to be better but still not as good as before.

If the heavy-duty cables aren't available (in enough quantity) to carry all the internet traffic into and out of Singapore, yes...something has to be reduced, and file sharing WILL be reduced first and heaviest.

My ISP is Singnet.

I have been getting good download speeds at about 4days ago. However now it is currently dropping to below 1.0kb/s.

I have looked at both your 1st and 2nd guides and according to the chart i have set the upload settings.(3.1mb/s download and 0.26mb/s upload speed)

Also, once i used this settings, the connection icon at the bottom becomes a yellow sign, which i doubt is good.

Could you kindly give any advice?

(I already restarted my modem)

The yellow sign at the bottom is a network problem. Your first stop should be your router and then any firewalls. Makes sure your port is open. http://www.canyouseeme.org/ , alternatively use Google and search for port checker if you wish to use a different one. If you hover your mouse above the yellow icon it will display more info on the problem. Sometimes it takes a second after all the peers or seeds connect for that to go away.

yeah now its green but still hovering at 10kb/s
