Yes.
Yes.
What port are you using? Select random port in uTorrent because a lot of times if its the ISP trottling your speed, they only do it in the default BT range of ports
in utorrent click preferences - Connection and Choose a port between 49152 through 65535, those are the reccomended ports.
if you've installed utorrent, you need to enable protocol encryption:
CTRL + P > BitTorrent > Protocol Encryption
set to Enabled, check allow incoming legacy connections
edit:
that's most likely the problem.I generally use torrentspy
enable the encryption, restart utorrent, then try downloading an openoffice torrent from here:
http://distribution.openoffice.org/p2p/
you should get a very high speed on it.

It's on random - still shit.
What's openoffice?
its just some small office app, you can delete it after. its just a test - he said start to download it to test your speed. while it downloads look at what speed you're getting. if its max speed then everything is set up correctly.

Ok, am now downloading that app, along with the original file I was downloading. I'm getting about 25kbs on the original file and about 5kbs on the one you told me to download. Better, but far from the speeds my line's capable of. Thanks for your help so far, but any other suggestions?
im running out of ideas if you have a green tick in utorrent then you should be connectable.
