That happens when you use Opera for downloading torrents. Download them with another browser (for example; Mozzila Firefox) and make sure your torrent client is associated with the .torrent file extension (or alternatively open your torrent client and go File --> Open and open the .torrent from there).
failing with Azureus-(nat error &dht not connecte),i shifted to internet explorer browser & bitcomet but speed not increased.other setup is same(better to mention- my softwares are either free /trial version).my connection shows 230kbps.
would someone pls answer what to do to increase speed while my other features r same???
tnx for valuable information regarding Opera!!!
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*
Router Configuration Guides
Slow Bit Torrent downloads? Router configuration tips (By CamDog):
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:
Windows firewall has no outbound 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 acquiring 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 transferred, 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 200 seeds and 10 leech's 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 Service Pack 2 installed, you'll need this:
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 whether they have placed any caps, it may be worth you checking out this guide if so:
