hi i my bt speed has been horrible this semester at college. it can only get up to 2kb per second. last semester i could get to like 30 kb per second. anyone know what could have caused all this? i went to shields up.com to and my port from 6881 to 6889 are all fine. but my download is really slow its like there is a lot of source but each source only gives me like a few hundred bytes. like i said ealier i am in a dorm so i don't know if i can access the router. i went and ask the admin and they said they haven't done anything. i don't know if i can get port forwarding to work. cause if i do wuldn't all the bt request goes to my computer? or what? i am really a noob at this? pls can soem one help me? do i need to open more port 6881 to 6889 for upd also in the window firewall??? could that be the problem causing it??? pls some one help me i am desperate. i am not asking for some fast dl speed just something like 20 to 30kb per torrent would be nice.
by the way my shararzaa is also having problems. i could connect and find a lot of source for a file but every time i download a file its like the same problem with the bt. all most of the source can only give me a few hundred bytes each. i check and see that 6346 portis open from shieldsp.com and i did the sharzaa connection test and it all said to work fine. pls can some one tell me whats wrong?

What firewalls are you using?
Do you have a router?
You have a good speed, a 3 mbit line is very decent.
Not to brag...but i just downloaded a 4.16 GB torrent in 3 hours 13 minutes, and it was going kind of slow...LOL

Well if you dont know if you have one, then you dont ;)
Check to see if your cable modem is also a router, you might have to check your manual for that though.

Well the reason your torrent connection is slow is because the University I/T department has dialed your connect down. At least where I work Wash U. not only have we done that, we have also blocked known ports that several torrent programs use. This is to protect our liability from RIAA and other corporate interests. Try using another program.

well first of all i live in a college dorm so i don't know what kind of router they are using. The windo firewall that i am using is just the standard window xp sp2 build it firewall. i have already set 16 expcetions in the firwall for port 6881 to 6889 for both tci ip and udp. as for the it department turning it down or blocking it well i went to the it department and asked them and they said they have nothing to do with it. and that they couldn't think of anyreason why it would be blocked. i have tested my port at shields up .com and they seem fine. my bandwidth is pretty good i have went to sites and tested it.
i don't know why my bt download is so slow. i got plenty of source but each source only gives me a couple hundred of bytes.
another trange thing i notice is that if there were too much seeders and leechers i keep getting tracker down on my sharzaa. it keep saying tracker down. i would only download things with like 800 seeders. both all my download is horribly slow, 1 to 2kb mostly
is there something about port forwarding that i need to do????

As Knight said, colleges now block ports and block incoming connections for p2p programs therefore you will get slow downloads, always. Here at my college I get 40 KB/s-80 KB/s, whilst at home i get 380-1000 KB/s.

hi i found out my port 6969 is blocked but port 6881 to 6889 are all fine.
i am having problem connecting to trackers on some torrents and the rest that i can connect gives me really slow download speed.
i mean i have a lot of source but each source only gives me a few hundred bytes. could the download speed be slow if port 6969 is blocked??? its very strange i still can get a lot of source on some torrents but on some it says can not communicate with tracker.
i have installed the patch that fix the limit of the tci ip connection but it doens't seem to help.
anyway know a way to get around port 6969 if its blocked? also to increase bt speed? cause i am getting 2kb and thats about it. even with a lot of source
i have heard of someone saying something about http tunneling
i wonder if that would work??

Highly seeded torrents, on a private tracker, thats the only thing that works for me here at school ;)
