I think my download rate is possibly the slowest ever and I was just wondering if anyone else has acheived numbers this low.
Fastest upload rate: 22 kb/s
Fastest download rate: 10 kb/s
I use Bitornado. I tried utorrent as well but with the same result. If this is as fast as they go, someone needs to find a better way.
Those speeds actually look normal for a torrent with only a few seeders.
If the problem persists with alot of seeds, then you way want to check into forwarding your port range, and updating your blocklist manager to PeerGuardian 2, so that your blocklist updates itself, rather than possibly having more legitimate IP's blocked than necessary.
uTorrent is actually the fastest BT app I've used, so I would suggest using that one.
Try looking into our Newsgroups section. You can't get any faster than usenet access without high bandwidth FTP access.Quote:

use a client like µtorrent 1.5 and enable the encryption, this seems to pass isp traffic shaping.
not sure if you considered this, but aside from traffic shaping if you're using a router you may not have the correct ports forwarded and that'll give you the slow speeds.
yep that right
I tried Utorrent again today and had better results, still not as fast as I would like but the numbers looked like this.
Fastest download: 43 kb/s that I saw
Fastest Upload: 45 kb/s that I saw
Now It was a different file so the seeds could have been better but I'm not sure what is causing the speed differences.
Edited for spelling mistake:
I still think you need to look into forwarding your port range...
{I}{K}{E} posted a great guide for "Solving Slow Bittorrent Speeds".
What kind of connection to the internet do you have.Up and down speeds that your internet company told you?
hmm strange, how many seeds and peers were on the torrent? ratio?
my highest download is 250 kb/s
upload probably alot higher
i have high speed cable, utorrent and it had like 30+ seeds connected if u r that low it could be any number of problems
ports, internet connection, bandwidth being taken up by other things, if you r running other programs like p2p it will slow it down
I have the slowest here...
I use dial-up ...
download rate is 4 kb.. uplaod rate is 1 kb
My highest DL 3.45MBps
My Fastest UL 480Kbps
My connection
8MBps
612Kbps
my highest DL 850/kbs
my highest Up 340/kba
i'm with rogers(canadian cable)
How I envy ur speeds 'kayvanblue'! My connection speed is 256 Kb and am on cable. But my highest D/L speed is abt 40 to 50 KBs & U/L is abt the same! I've done everything humanly possible re port frwding etc.. :(
highest DL 350Kb/s
--//-- UL 40Kb/s
pretty low if u consider that my ISP connection is 8MB/400KB
:P
Last night.
Oblivion CE clone = 4.18 GB
Min speed 500 k/s
Max speed 800 k/s
average 650 k/s
25 kb/s download 8 kb/s upload
the speeds that some of u mention seem to be confusing
my dl speed is just a moderate 27-32kB/s.
ul is just 6-8kB/s.
kB-kiloByte
kb-kiloBit
2500 Kb/s down
800 Kb/s up
It seems a lot of people are using Kb when they mean KB.
1 byte (B) = 8 bits (b)
