|
|
Okay well I've started to use utorrent now and port forwarded it and configured some settings to make it faster
so i guess im getting maybe 50kb/100kb average??? But in between for like 2-5 mins it would spike to like over 300Kb
Im wondering why is this happening and maybe I can make it stay at that speed?
anyone have some good tips to increase it faaster even more ? _________________

The seeders and leechers connected to you are the main factors. Other "optimization" methods usually don't help increase your download speeds by much. It's just how P2P works. _________________

your download speed is only affected by how many seeders you have. the more the better. |

Not just seeders, but you're right.
Speeds of torrents are temperamental, at best. |

This is wrong... A piece of your speed from torrents is sacrificed from downloading (instead of 100 percent downloading) and used for uploading...
So leechers download more than upload, though they DO still upload. _________________
