When I first began them, they both had great download speeds of usuallly 30k to 50k. For some reason, I can barely even break 4k and the majority of the time is spent downloading at 0.1 k. For torrents with 300+ people downloading and "sharing", it sure is slow as hell. Can people start being a bit more generous with their upload speeds? And I know it isn't my firewall/router/isp because other torrents not related to this site download at great speeds. Thanks.
Well, i left BT on overnight and ended up d/ling a good bit so maybe the o.1k thing is passing.
After 5 or 10 minutes, the download will speed up. When I downloaded episodes that were grouped (like 51-60), I always left them going overnight and it was always finished in the morning. So give BT time and it will speed up.
Bleh, looks lie 51-60 has slipping back into being slow. 500 peers but I get less than 1k down, pathetic.
firewalls and router will limit your speed
Hardware routers dont limit your download speed. Just because BT doesnt hog 4000 ports doesnt mean its being limited [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
Yeah, but at the same time it makes it harder to make connections with other users, hence slow speeds... that's why port fowarding is needed.... might be mistaken so if I'm wrong disregard...
