Hi, I recently had this problem with Bit Tornado until last night. You need to forward the ports for Bit Torrents. I didn't have a clue how until I found this site yesterday. Go to http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm
and find your router. If it isn't there click one that is nearest to yours as I did as it is normally basically the same. You then look at how to do it an for Bit Tornado forward ports 6881 to 6899. Hope this helps.

i'm serious this is fucked up.i have open ports in my router and firewall,and nothing is different accept that the torrents download slower when i messed with my firewall..it's so damn annoying to look at something that downloading and says it will be done in 10 hours when you that it can be 25 min..

Make sure that you set the Default Rate Setting in Preferences for your connection, Automatic doesnt seem to detect correctly. Also, set the Max peer connections to 40. Also, dont open the ports in your firewall, forward them. If youre running a software firewall, shut it down, your router's firewall will do fine, software firewalls on top of a hardware one will cause conflicts.

When ISP's say you have a 1 meg download, they mean 1 megabits. Your computer shows it in MegaBytes. In most programs you will see MegaBytes not Megabits. A 1 meg DSL should get about 125KB/sec. I have cable. I guess I got lucky because I can download about 320KB. Probably because no one else in nieghbor uses it.

Its pretty easy, just click on the prefs link in BitTornado located near the top right hand side of the window, then click on the Advanced button located at the bottom right hand side of the window. Then simply change the peers to 40.

ok guys. i will save you a lot of time and a lot of headaches. After you forward your ports from your administration page ie. linksys router, you have to POWER CYCLE your modem router and comp. if you are unfamiliar with what the means, turn comp router and modem off. then boot up your modem, wait till all the lights are solid, then boot up the router, then the comp. You should def see a green status light. enjoy

OREOS even with super fast power PCs it is not recommened hat you have more than 3 BT open at the same time. When I do 4 BT I notice a drop in all 4 BT speeds.
Also are you sure you set Max peer connections to 40. Mine is at 0 which mean that you can connect to an infinite number of peer connections. I have minimum # of peer connectios at 30 instead of the default 20 and I have max peer connections at infinte (0) and I am getting DL speed of 100kbps and UL speeds of 398 kbps. So I am on a T1 connection.
What does setting "Max peer connections to 40" in Bit Tornado do exactly?

O btw i forgot to mention i do not have a router so is there anything i can do to improve it?
Wat abt the UpNp port forwarding ...wat shd i do with dat? Currently is disabled.
Also if i sent my settings to unlimited ...will it help?

sofa2333, just for the book, Peers are others your sharing with and seeds are completed versions of what your downloading. If you aren't connected to many seeds you will get poor download rates and if your connected to only a few peers you will get poor upload rates....pretty simple eh. Bittornadoe locks up if i connect to more than 50 seeds/peers which is really anoyying. Especially when there's 100's of em out there.

Not to burst anyones bubble but i've been using torrents for a while now, The speed of your download is all on the file you are downloading. Also if you are uploading at a certain speed your download is going to be a bit less than that (Normally not always). So depending on the file you check and see how many seed's there are (Seed's being people sending the file out) Then you look and see how many people are downloading that specific file. basically as crit71 said. If there's 100 people downloading and only 17 seed's out there and they only have a total together of 850kb's (If there upload speeds were at 25kbs) That means everyone get's to share the 425kb's. Now with a total of 425 kb's upload speed for the seed's and 100 downloaders that means there is aproximitly 4.25kb per person.... So your download would be at 4.25kbs. This is when the other factor of torrents comes in. If your trying to download then you have to seed some... If you offer 25kb's upload speed and 75 of those 100 other people are offering 50kb's there speed is going to be 2x faster downloading than yours cause you have to share to get. That would bring your speed down to a little more than 2kb's per second. (All of this was just an example) Speeds will differ per download it just is all about math. The best setting to use for bit torrent is automatic. It will do everything for you determining how fast your going to download and upload. The next best setting will be 0-upload and 0-download (0=Infinite). Depending on how fast your connection with the internet is. It really doesnt matter what you set your router to or anything else like that it's just what's going on in the moment. On BitTornado you get a share rating a share rating determains how much of your speed is going to upload, Usually a good share rating is 1.000 but if it falls below that dont worry it doesnt make much of a diffrence. Also if you notice that your file is jumping up and down. That is because diffrent people are jumping on the downloads with more to give than you. It's not anyones fault that your speed is slowing down it's just that a newcommer to theat specific download (or in certain cases, newcomers*) are giving away more upload speed and taking more download speed away from the file. I hope this helps with some peoples questions... You really shouldnt worry about all the settings...

just one more thing seeds arent arent always completed files. If you look at your download your considered a seed because what you download automatically because a seed for everyone else to use. So if someone has just started a download and has 10mb's done and you hop on you can start on there 10mb's and that's a helpfull seed to you. But if for some reason you supras them while downloading they no longer become a seed for you and you loose that download speed. (reasons could be that they closed the file for sharing they finished the file for sharing or many other things. thought i would just add that.

Okay guys this is driving me bonkers.... II recently set my ports on Tornado to 55566-55599, then setup my router to forward these ports using TCP protocol set the IP adress and for some reason it was working... Then just recently my IP changed and it quit working, so now i finally set my router and PCs with static IPs.. And have reset the port forwarding to forward ports 40000-50000 and enabled bothe TCP and UDP, plus set the new static IP to bind to and enabled it ... however every single time i attempt to connect I get the message - Couldnt Listen - Unable to forward port via UPnP... I even have went int advanced and binded the IP and tryed it w/o binding the IP in Tornado, but i get the same result.. Ive also powered down the router and computer and the same thing still happens... If i set the ports in BT out of the range im forwarding i at least get it to teh point of where it asks wher eto save the file but it wont connect to the tracker.. im completely lost on this.. it worked and then it wont anymore afte rthe one time the IP changes.. i dont get what im doing wrong, if i am doing anything wrong taht is... any help would be greatly appreciated..
fyi, im using tvtorrents.ws as a test site since i know the trackers almost always work there
