I have followed the UTorrent TUT here on aD but for some reason I am still just pushing 50kb/s (download). Why is this? My speed test results are as follows:


Any help would be appreciated.

Your download speed in BitTorrent, or any other P2P (Peer-2-Peer) application for that matter, relies on the upload speed of others - so do not assume that because you get xxKB/s when downloading from web sites that you will always get xxKB/s with BitTorrent. Slow download speeds are almost always because the upload bandwidth required to provide you with fast downloads just isn't there... so there is no way to magically speed it up, other than going out and buying everyone who you're downloading from (seeds/peers) a faster internet connection.

A few questions for you.

How have you set up UTorrent ? ( what settings are you using)

How many seeders are there ?

How many leechers are also downloading this file ?

Are you using a Private tracker ?

Do you have your port forwarded properly ?

Are you being capped or traffic managed by your ISP ?
