Help needed with hosting-ie server

[mr.Dman]

Thanks for your replies.

I have this dedicated server package Core2 Duo 2x2.2
2x160 GB of HDD disk (Raid optional)
2 GB of RAM
Traffic-Unlimited (guaranteed)
2x100Mbit Switch Port
KVM (Obtional) NEW
RemoteConsole
PLESK 8 (obtional)
Remote Reset Obtion
Port

I have 150 torrents seeding, with about 30-40 of them active at any one time. Is this too many torrents ?

What would be the best settings on utorrent for this server.

Appreciate any help anyone can give.

One thing is missing here are you using widows or linux

Many thanks for all your replies so far.

The OS is Winows, I know please don't judge me on that, i'm a nice girl really !

After getting very frustrated with it today, I made the drastic decision to remove all my torrents, reinstal utorrent and load a few of the ones that are still popular and i was getting good speeds on. But as you can see from my screenshot my speeds are poor and am not connecting to many peers.

I'm at a loss now at what to do next and any suggestions would be more than welcome.

Many thanks again.

One thing did you do a speed test

Did you setup utorrent like this

Use Speed Guide and set your connection to "xx/100Mbps" or "xx/10Mbps" depending on what you have
Choose any port above 45,000
Enable Encryption
Disable DHT, Local Peer Discovery, Peer Exchange
No randomize ports, disable UPnP port mapping & NAT-PMP port mapping

I haven't ran a speedtest as when i have ran them from my server they have never reflected anything like the speeds that i was achieving.

I have set up utorrent as you suggested and unfortunately it hasn't helped. My dowload speeds are still very good it's just when it comes to the upload speeds abd being able to connect to any peers.

Not sure what my next course of action should be.

Thanks again for your help.

For speedtests, try a java based test available at Numion

On my friends Hosting-IE server, I can't for the life get speedtest.net to work due to the flash being so laggy and all. No idea if it's just us or it applies to everyone.

Are you one of the first to jump on the file.
Even being a little late sometimes you won't see fast up times.
Good luck
