Need some help with torrenting... in Software ·
Seed 10-20 (2296)

Man, why am I getting such low speeds? It’s hovering right around 2,000...

I'm using an FXG torrent, which is usually one of the most reliable ones out there..

I tried downloading another one today and ran into the exact same issue. It's painfully slow. My speed test shows my connection is hitting about 600kb/s, and everything else downloads just fine—it’s just these torrents acting up..

I've been downloading from www.torrentz.com... I usually just pick whatever was uploaded most recently, typically something from Mininova or similar sites. Everything seemed fine until yesterday. I tried testing it out with a few different files just to see if it was a fluke, but it’s the same result today. Even with the most popular torrents, nothing works. I even switched over to using BitTorrent, but it's the exact same issue.

Hey there!

I'll drop my issue here instead of starting a whole new thread..

Basically, I've been trying to grab a few torrents since yesterday, and the download speeds are absolutely abysmal—just 10-30kb/s. It used to hover around 100, and now that I've upgraded my broadband to over 200, I can't figure out why it's tanking like this.

(To be honest, I wasn't even aware of the rules regarding sharing, but usually, once I finish a movie, I just leave it running overnight so others can grab it...) Also, my upload is getting hammered right now (those folks downloading from me are pulling about 30-50kb/s, which is actually double my download speed...

😕 I'm using uTorrent.
