Slow speeds in uTorrent? ISP throttling?

**piggy** · 03-06-2008, 01:15 AM

... At least you still could download and upload with ur ISP.

I could get 0 upload and 0 download these days from the 2mbps i used to get. i don't want to mention ISP in ASIA. THis is what i call throttling. ahhh.. heard that Utorrent and gang are coming up with new encrypt methods. hope that they will come out soon.

Stuck with the freaking isp for 3 more mths due to a contract i signed 2 years ago. After i swear i would change.

This version uTorrent 1.8 Beta Build 6806 deters the TS (traffic shaping)
Don't forget to ENABLE the encryption...

Or this new client deluge-0.5.8.5

tell as the results

"TRAFFIC SHAPING IS PROGRAMM TO -B L O C K- P2P CONNECTIONS
(only that)"

do not try speed test , it does not have meaning to test the connection for TS

Use the latest beta of utorrent, it uses quite succesfully a new type of encryption.

I use Rogers in the Toronto area. My typical torrent upload is under 10 kB/s combined for all my torrents.
Today as a test I loaded up utorrent 1.8. My uploads went to my max which is around 100 kB/s. It looks like the new encryption they are using is fooling the Rogers monitoring software for now. Until Rogers catches up, this looks like the client to use on their network.

I am glad to hear that.

There are also a lot of improvements in the latest beta mainly in disk writes/reads management that make the new beta a must have.

Also keep in mind that if you need help with utorrent you simply can go and post in their forums, there are a lot of guys there ready to help you.
