Hey there,
If you are experiencing issues with your torrent speeds, please read on.
If you are using a router, please ensure that you have configured it to play nice with your BT d/l & u/l speeds, here are some
great guides on how to open and forward ports on your router:
*Step 1*

*Step 2*
If you have a firewall installed, you must allow your BT client full access to the network via <Insert firewalls name here>, how to do this depends on what firewall you are using, information on how to do this is likely to be found on the manufacturers forums:

Outpost firewall Support Forums

Zone Labs User Forum
http://forum.zonelabs.org/zonelabs
Sygate Product Forums

If you have Windows XP firewall installed, I reccomend you disable it (via Controll Panel Security Centre) and use one of thefirewalls listed here:

Windows firewall has no outband protection, meaning a full software firewall will prove much more effective.
*Step 3*
Download well seeded torrents, seed's are people who have the full file and are distributing, leech's/peers are people who are aquiring the file, the more leech's the slower the speed as the seed can only upload xxxyyyzzz amount at one time, the greater the upload & download speed of the seed the faster data can be transfered, a torrent with 100 seeds and 500 peers will go very slow, as there are more people trying to download the file than share it, meaning less data can be uploaded to the peers as there is more to share it with.
A torrent with 100 seeds and 10 leechs will go very fast! as the seed can upload more to xxyyzz person as there is less people to share it with.
Please tell us the amount of seed's and leech's on the torrent!
*Step 4*
If you have Windows ServicePack 2 installed, you'll need this:
Install the LvlLord Patch
http://www.lvllord.de/?lang=en&url=downloads
Windows will prompt you with a pop up telling you system files are being altered, ignore this, click cancel, also your Anti Virus may alert you telling you this patch is a virus, its not! so ignore that too :-)
*Step 5*
If there still slow, its possible your ISP is capping your BT download & upload speeds, you need to call them and ask them how they feel about "Peer to Peer file sharing programs" and wether they have placed any caps, it may be worth you checking out this guide if so:

Just for the record, don't tell people your modem's speed is 100Mb/s. That's the theoretical max for your network--not your modem.
For a 100Mb/s connection, you'd be paying hundreds if not thousands of dollars a month. I know it says 100Mb/s in your network connection box--but it's fibbing.
Really just a semantics issue, but without semantics, where would all the ants go?
