I have 2 computers at home one is my Benq laptop and the other a dell desktop both run pentium 4. Both PCs have different internet connections. My laptop has a wireless connection with a 1024K/128K connection. My dell pc has an ADSL 512k connection. Both have different ISPs.
My problem is for some reason when i use my laptop to download torrents i can only max at 35KB/s no matter what. I have tried free torrent sites and also sites where you need to register. But i still get the same results. This problem only occurs on my laptop. I have no problems what so ever downloading torrents with my dell 512k connection i can max at 65KB/s.
At first i thought maybe it was just my 1024k connection isp on my laptop causing the problem, i thought they might be throttling peer to peer downloads but i went to my isps forum and several customers say they can download at the max. So i connected my laptop to my 512k connection but i am still getting the same problems. Only maxing at 35KB/s no matter what. So i reconnected my 512k connection back to my desktop and i tried downloading the exact same torrents from the same sites with my dell desktop and i was able to max out my connection.
So i can't figure out what the problem is. I have the exact same settings on both my bitcomet clients. I can download from websites fine. It's just when i download torrents on my laptop the problems occur. My laptop is only 3wks old. The only differnce i can think of is that my laptop has XP SP2 and uses centrino 1.6ghz and my desktop has XP PRO with a pentium 4 1.8ghz. But i have tried using XP PRO on my laptop and i still get the same results.
I have no router. I have done virus/spyware scans and all came back negative. I have set my upload to 15KB/s. The only firewall i have is SP2 where i have forwarded ports. Even if i turn off my firewall i can still only get 35KB/s. I have even tried using Azureus, but still same problems.
Would someone be able to help me figure out what is wrong? Is it my bitcomet settings? My internet settings? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
