18000 seeds, but still slow...

[worldpease]

Well, I´m downloading NFSU2, with like 18,000 seeds, but still, the download is too slow, when I just downloaded another file at 35kbps (fast for my standard), and also, the little face in Azureus is green, wich I know should be good, what could it be?

[SingaBoiy]

I got that game at 500 kB/s.

How many leechers are there?

[worldpease]

leechers, where do I find out?

[(>Zero Cool<)]

also where you getting the torrent, if you don't mind me asking. :unsure:

Have you tried restarting azereus? :huh:

wee green face normally means ok :)

@singaboy just how fast is your dld speed?????? :ohmy:

[mogadishu]

that dl maxed me out.. 300KB.. right after it came out.

Ive had plenty of experiences like with huge number of peers and terrible, maybe the tracker is just bad. Just try another tracker maybe with a better seeder/peer ratio.

hmmm that is wierd...the max mine ever goes it like 23....and i upload like 25...but my dl never goes above 30....even when i have a lot of people lol

[worldpease]

¨Zero Cool¨ and ¨mogadishu¨, I think you are both right,
I haven´t tryed other tracker, right now I am usin torrentspy.com, I´ll try others.
...and about re-starting azuerus, well, yes, I´ve had this torrent like for three days,...
well, gotta go, ¨Lost¨is getting started.

leechers, where do I find out?


should appear in the column in azereus next to seeds :unsure: the number in the brackets

or even on the site you got the torrent for a less up to date reading :)

Thats my max :)

Its too slow though :(

[(>Zero Cool<)]

Thats my max :)

Its too slow though :(


it's ten times faster than mine :01: ......I suppose too much is never enough :unsure:

[vietguy]

mine too, i tried different trackers, BT engine, and i also turned off the firewall but nothing works.

[worldpease]

¨Vietguy¨, I think that what the guys here said is right, well, at least in my case, there where too many leechers, so, that is not good for a BT download.

im on a 768kb/s broadband (or somethin glike that) and get download speed of 130kb/s..im a member of TB2 and ET and they have good seeder/leecher ratios...however i still get in excess of 100 when i used nova or something similar. try using bittornado as the client...solved myproblems. i upload pathetically though...max 20...so its hard for me to keep my ratio...but of course i do it.love bittorrent! :D

edit:ive never had to fiddle with port crap and firewalls...all you have to do is unistall azureus (which is better for experienced ppl) and install bittornado...cos it does all the port crap for you and i'm always connectable..so no need with firewalls
hope it helps

Ok I can download up to 230Kbs on like winmx and kazaa lite....how come it only goes to like 20 on bittornado?

[cpt_azad]

my max dl is 500ish, highest ever being 589 kb/s (DoomIII when it came out last summer).

edit: that's BT speed, my Ares speed is usually 90kb/s-200kb/s avg. depending on what i download, and i mostly download stuff that's readily available. slowest speed would have to go to Emule at a nice steady avg dl speed of 2 kb/s :) my avg UL speed on BT is 60 kb/s, highest being 90 kb/s
