      Please Help Me!!!

      Since switching to sky broadband I have encountered really slow download speeds, I was using bitcomet with tiscali and had no probs. Even with 20 seeds and 40 peers it was only reaching 10kb/s then going back to 0kb/s. I have uninstalled bitcomet and tried utorrent, it says the port is open but the same thing is happening. I am going nuts with it. please help

      Have you opened any ports on the router or not?

      Thanks for replying

      Yes followed the instuctions and utorrent now says port is open but the download speed only reaches 10 or 11kb/s then drops back to zero again.

      Re: Please Help Me!!!

      There is no shaping on any of the LLU packages, so there has to be something simple wrong, either at your end or the Torrents site.

      Can you post your stats?

      Also it may be worth a try on this thread

      http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/speed...onnection.html

      Also just double check the settings for Azureus with this one

      Have you opened any of the ports required?

      Also have you done the Optimising step I posted above?

      try this torrent m8

      distribution: OpenOffice.org P2P Downloads

      if u get fast speed then it must be the trackers you r using
      Please take a moment and upgrade your bit torrent client to the latest version.
