Steam download is direct download at which the contents are directly delivered by Valve's dedicated servers located in Singapore, that's why it is fast.

Torrent is using peer-to-peer (P2P) protocol, your speed is depend on seeders' upload speed, if the seeder put a limit on his/her upload speed in the torrent client settings then you won't get a good download speed, torrent is very subjective, this is because not everyone is having fast upload speed or symmetrical upload speed like we do, there are many hit and run cases (stop seeding after finish the download at which the seeding ratio isn't an important factor on public tracker), private trackers are much better for fast download since you need to maintain a certain level of seeding ratio in order to keep using their service.

I am downloading F1 race videos now and is able to get over 30MB/s, I don't limit my upload speed since I have plenty to share, hopefully it can cover those hit and run cases or those who are on limited upload speed/data cap plan etc.

thank you seeder! dat 200+Mbps upload speed!

No problem

It was a pain to download torrent last time on Streamyx, it was either no seeder or TM blocked the port, now I am just trying to seed as much as I can since TIME is generous enough to give us symmetrical upload speed

Speaking of seeding, I just realized I have seeded more than 2.7TB on a single torrent

I am already using Google DNS.

I tweaked some ports and the QoS on the dlink router and I'm getting this now on speedtest:

lol

Torrent speed improved greatly and 4K youtube still ok.

I subscribed to 100 mbs, but connection to oversea's servers i never get more than 16 Mbps.
Especially Europe or US Servers. Is there any special setting need to be done to hit those speed?
Please help

You just got the infamous Dlink router glitch, you need to factory reset the router in order get back the normal speed.

As reported here and here.

Factory reset guide.

Make sure you know your PPPoE username and password first before proceeding.

You did the test using LAN cable (cat5e/cat6 cable) or via WiFi?

Can you get full 100Mbps on local server?

Hi Bro..pls pm me your Service No..

Thanks.

Thanks Bro for summarized up the issues.

Yes i can on local servers,but not oversea's. Are you using same Dlink 850 router like ours?. Is this anything got to do with routers or just setting?

Hehe, no problem, I am glad to help others here

I am using Asus RT-AC3200, I didn't do any special settings in the router, maybe your location is congested?

Any other user can do a speedtest to oversea's servers to confirm this? (US, UK etc.)

Hi, I want to ask the the voice home 10 plan will automatically renew after one year or it will not?

My speed is still slow so i will try to reset. But do i reset modem or router?

may i know what are the roles for each port? are they really needed or can be reset?

If you want to reset, reset the DLink Router and configure back the PPPOE Settings, make sure you have the Login Username & Password ready with you.

Thanks.
