no. no finish download too. it just open the codec wizard folder only. dunno why.

it's normal if u r downloading many tasks at 1 time or connecting to many peers

if not happy ,can switch to utorrent...

utorrent dun move after installed into my system.

is there any settings that i have to change in bitcomet if i install a software firewall like Comodo?

need permission and ports in Comodo i think so.

watever firewall you install
you also need to make it can go through that firewall

giving permission for BitComet to go through

just set allow is enough.

set allow? you mean at windows firewall?

nope, there is no setting at BC then u need to change (in fact all settings in BC doesn't have anything to do with watever firewall u using, it's mainly about connections and tasks). But u need to set allow in Comodo for BC.


for windows firewall, u need to add BC to the exception.

i mean for his comodo fw lah.

I have already forwarded my port.

However, if I let me bitcomet running to download things, I couldn't surf the web. How come?

limit ur bitcomet upload speed at 80% of your exact upload speed.

512kb/s /8 = 64kb/s (actually i get max 40-48kb/s from speedometer)

then use 40kb/s x 80% = 32kb/s as ur bitcomet upload speed.

if still cannot surf net, then uninstall the firewall. i hate it.

that 512kbps is download speed...
if you subscribe to 512k package
ur upload is 256kbps
then ur limit should be 256/8 = 32kbps
32 x 80% = 25.6kbps
then ur upload limit should be less than 25kbps

if you subscribe to 1M package, then you should limit to 38kbps

since that tmnet didnt provide us 100% speed, you should set to lower upload speed...
512k > 22kbps
1M > 32kbps

if limit upload speed didnt solve your problem, you can lower Max half-open TCP connections that can found in
Preferences > Advanced > Connection
you can set to 8 (default is 10)

if you still experience the same problem again
then you can disable the DHT
and restart the BitComet again


hope this 3 way can help calvin_gsc

u also set like tat?

Thanks guys for the suggestion. Will try it out.

The global download rate, I remain it as no limit?

Update: I have a 1Mbit connection. Applied the settings, and surfing lowyat always gives me timeouts if bitcomet is running.

Guys, i needed some help biggrin.gif

I have formatted my PC. B4 i format, there are some few files that still incomplete..when i install back my BitComet and set the download directory to the incomplete files but there's no effect (resume)..can someone help me to resume those downloads?? Some of it already 90% downloaded sad.gif

i didnt have that kind of problem
and some people in this forum say that some of the old model modem cannot handle too much task in same time
therefore, cant surf when BitComet open......

if after try those setting also cant work
then calvin_gsc can try a newer modem

for 512k package
set upload to 15,if you set aorund 22k..your download will get affected.
i have been using upload 15 for the 1 year liao..if tmnet didn't throttle the conenction,the download rate should maintain btw 55k to 60k

for 1M package
se the upload around 30k should be alright

u mean the global upload speed? wat speed u having now?
