You sure portforwarding is done correctly?

Try this OOO torrent and tell us what is the speed.

Everything seems alright, you might want to consider changing to another port because the default 6881-6889 isn't recommended afterall.

Try some random port > 10000 one

I'm not sure about Bitspirit, but Bitlord is

To me bitspirit is too complicated to configure and bloated

I think it is normal, my ADSL router has such "problem" too
But as long as the port is forwarded by either manually or uPNP, it will be alright

The ports setting will be gone if you reset your router.

Have you applied TCPsys patch if you're using XP SP2?

Bitcomet does choke my connection but uTorrent seems to be better. If it is too serious try also to cap your Download speed.

Have you configured your proxy in the Firefox? Check the settings in IE and apply to Firefox

I don't think there is any legal way for you to bypass college firewall unless you've access to the firewall settings. Don't try to hack the network as it might get you into trouble, im serious

Hi guys, just a story to share
I've been travelling overseas lately and seldom play around with BT, and I notice it is much slower than it was, especially after I formatted my old P4 2.8 Desktop. Port forwarding was done perfectly, nothing seems wrong

And later, I discovered that I forgot to add port exception in Windows Firewall settings After added the port exceptions it's running like usual now! with 60KBps on my RM66 line

if it stops at 99.3% then no more seeder, then you've to blame on your bad luck (unless there's a reseed otherwise it's impossible for you to finish the download)


You can try playing it at 99.3% if it's alright then fine. If not...then you can just delete it

Have you checked the torrent availability/health (for uTorrent or Bitcomet respectively), it has to be more than 1.000 or 100% for you to finish the download (unless there's a re-seed)

And yeah, some videos file can be seen even it is not 100% being downloaded. It depends.

Do you mean the health indicator? Have you checked that whether your UDP port is mapped correctly in your NAT/Firewall?

There shouldn't be any orange IIANM

I don't know either...maybe you can ask somebody who are experienced in Azureus, i haven't been touching it for year already

Just keep the .bc! file (or whatever it is) and the torrent file with you. When you wanna continue it in the newly formatted system, just use the manual hashcheck function.

I think as long as your port is correctly open, you can just use the default setting and your speed should be fine.

1. Have you patched your TCP using lvllord? http://www.lvllord.de/
2. Since your configurations seem right, you facing the speed problem only for that particular torrent or all other torrents? If you're unsure, please try to download open office here http://distribution.openoffice.org/p2p/ and tell us the speed.

Atlantis: have you read my second point?

Read carefully, Second point as in no 2.

and don't double post please

Well, same set of standard questions.

1. Have you got firewall blocking the port? Check it.

2. About the connection initiation, is it only "Local" peers or can you see any "NAT Traversal/Remote" peers?
- if it's the first case, then you might not have done portforwarding correctly.
- if it's the second case, it might be purely your seed problem. Refer to point 3.

3. If it's because of seed quality problem, you might want to try this one....if you can get fast speed that means your configuration is correct

Just a summary, I don't think there's particular kind of settings that makes much difference to the speed. If the port is well forwarded and nothing is blocking, you won't get 5KBps speed unless it's your ISP problem or the seed quality is real bad.

All the BT clients that I know have the speed dispalyed in kB/s.

Sounds like you're looking for complete spoon feeding here.

If you want to use BT, don't be lazy, do some reading

Can you connect to any remote port?

Try downloading this open office seed and tell us the speed
