try setting your port to 1720, this is bast on your isp ; i use rogers the best port for me is 1720 some companies use special software that blocks psp/torrents download-upload.rogers down't block port 1720 because it's used for "voip".this is all bast on if u live in canada and your using rogers.

Hi pennylip,

Perhaps you can list your modem's model number? We can do a bit more digging with that. Oh, and your isp would be helpful too.

Rogers is known for throttling bit-torrent traffic,
I would recommend using Utorrent or Azureus,
And enable Protocol Header Encryption,
This will determine if its your ISP that is throttling your BT traffic.
I know of several people that have had the same problem with Rodgers.

If you are unsure how to do this, RAV009 has a GREAT guide,
You can find that here:

Because it isnt as 'sound' security wise as other BT clients and
IS NOT accepted by MOST private trackers.


...::::::::::Bit Torrent Protocol Encryption::::::::::...

Protocol encryption (PE) & Message stream encryption (MSE)

PE and MSE are implemented in the BT clients Azureus, ”Torrent, BitComet, KTorrent and Mainline.

PE and MSE are protocol obfuscation methods, they use a D-H key exchange combined with the info hash of the torrent to establish the key, then it uses RC4 to encrypt the data.

The D-H key exchange helps to minimize the risk of passive listeners, and the info hash helps avoid man-in-the-middle attacks. RC4 is chosen for its speed. The first kilobyte of the RC4 output is discarded to prevent a particular attack.

The specification allows the users to choose between encrypting the headers only or the full connection. Encrypting the full connection provides more obfuscation but uses more CPU time.

However, only Azureus and ”Torrent beta 1.4.1 build 413 or older lets the user choose.
All other clients default to full encryption.
To ensure compatibility with other clients that don't support this specification, users may also choose whether unencrypted incoming or outgoing connections are still allowed.

So again this is why I recommend Utorrent (my personal choice) or Azureus.

Again you can read more in detail about BT security and why you
should use these clients ONLY by reading RAV009's GREAT guide.
