Is TCP traffic on a well-known BitTorrent port (6881) throttled?

There's no indication that your ISP rate limits all downloads at port 6881. In our test, a TCP download on a BitTorrent port achieved at least 163 Kbps while a TCP download on a non-BitTorrent port achieved at least 194 Kbps. You can find details here.
Your ISP possibly rate limits all uploads at port 6881. In our test, a TCP upload on a BitTorrent port achieved at least 29 Kbps while a TCP upload on a non-BitTorrent port achieved at least 83 Kbps. You can find details here.



Time to switch to a differnt port.
