BitTorrent Download speeds
I recently got sky, aprox 3 weeks ago. At first I had problems with dropping connections and slow web page loading but these were easily solved. I normaly use Utorrent for my torrent downloads and I used it with my old ISP fine but with sky I can bareley get a connection, the max speed I can get is 2kbps I dont know that the problem is. I switched to azureus and the speeds are amazing, I get around 200kbps constantly on downlods so far so. Now the problem is that azureus uses quite a lot of system resources and the machine im running it on is an old P3 it realy bogs down when Ive got 2-3 downloads running. I'd much rather use Utorrent so what could be the problem that is preventing Utorrent from getting decent dload speeds.
thnx in advance

I've already forwarded the port that Utorrent uses

Re: BitTorrent Download speeds
I use uTorrent, No problems here, In the uTorrent PortStatus, Is it all GREEN?
Also, Have you forwarded the ports in McAfee and Windows/Mac Firewall.
