Connecting to peers during download is no problem, but when my download is finished, uploading is definitely a hassle.

Can anyone help me out? My upload speeds are pretty ass right now. When I first started torrenting it was okay.

are you sure there are plenty of leechers? this is often the most common reason i see this question asked.
and also what site is it? if there are 20 guys with 100mbit seedboxes on it, chances are you're not gonna get a lot of upload on it.
lastly, who is your isp? because if you were uploading fine while downloading, then it stopped, there's a slim cahnce it could be sandvine, but you would notice all the rst packs in your log usually if it were that.

ok couple of quick checks

i see portforwarding is ok - good
i see DHT is off - good

you need to check you have patched the tcpip.sys file and open more ports eg. 50

also you need to limit your download speed to 80% of your max
(any higher and slows upload right down)

i also limit my upload to about 95% of max (seems to steady my connection and keeps constant speeds)

on the screenshot , the torrent 706mb with zero peers connected has many seeders , so you probably wont get many connectings due to high amount of seeders

also the last thing what ISP are you with in what country ?

This also happens to me sometimes, just ride the wave out and your upload speed will raise eventually. You might also try restarting utorrent and your computer if the low speeds remain constant.

dont think he's firewall is problem as the GREEN tick at bottom of client suggest forwarding is good.

yeah dude sometimes it's just slow peers or ISP issues, I'd just leave it up seeding but if this happens everywhere then idk

even so some firewall still can block some peers its happend to me long time ago..u should just try and see if there is some difference..

there are 35 peers he should seed with much more speed than on pics

well that ISP does do TRAFFIC SHAPING

http://www.azureuswiki.com/index.php/Bad_ISPs#Canada

read that page , explains that your ISP blocks seeding

gives a tip on how to overcome it , dunno if it'll work though

..... just remembered you use utorrent , so dunno if you can apply same option as described on that page

this is the setting to change for AZUREUS
Enabling Tools -> Options -> Transfer -> Use lazy bitfield

So my ISP blocks seeding, which I notice when some peers keep getting their connections cut off within the first few seconds, but I often upload at full blast to other peers. Weird.

you probably get a burst then ISP traffic shapping bot catches you and locks you down.

When you next subscribe to a new ISP have a good look at what the other offer and what that stop.

I'd try using azureus and do the setup recommended, i use azureus its much better than utorrent ,( more advanced setting and tweaks) it just eats memory though (java)

also before re-testing after making changes make sure you completely power down all devices ie. routers modems etc etc
then do a speed test before starting P2P , then start download a GOOD torrent with nice number of seeds and peers , see if that works.

good luck
