I'm having a heck of a time with azureus lately. Here's the story.

I recently switched over to a wireless network, I have a D-Link DI-624 Router

I've set the router with the following settings:

IP: 192.168.0.3
Port's forewarded: 6881-6889, 65535, 53000

I'm using Azureus 2.3.0.4 with a fixed IP of 192.168.0.1, which is the same as my computer, on port 6881.

My problem isn't so much as to my speed (although this does affect it) it pertains to the amount of seeds and peers I connect to.

I don't get any NAT errors, it says I'm fine on port 6881. But I hardly connect to ANY peers. As of now, I am downloading a 170 MB file, it has 3974 seeds, and 7421 peers. At best, I've connected to 24 seeds and 17 peers. It's like this with every file, I get about 2% of the number of people who are available to give share this file, as a result, I experience SEVERELY LOW download speeds, while happy go lucky people benefit greatly from my perfect upload speed.

What can I do to make myself open to more peers and seeds? I remember I used to get hundreds, if not thousands of connections with files that were this popular before, how can I reclaim my former glory?

Any help is appreciated, just ask if you need any more info.

Try using a closed site like http://www.bitsoup.org or http://www.araiditracker.com I find that on them sites you connect to alot more seeds/peers.

Also check out my guide (it's in my sig)
