Speed Problems


Recommended Posts

I'm using BitComet .7, and I have a wireless network. I just followed the guide in the FAQ about what to do if you have a router, yet my speeds are still below 10 kb/s for download.

Is this normal?

EDIT: They've been at 1kb/s for the last hour.

EDIT: It's up to about 20kb/s, is this normal?

You don't need to bump threads here. Anways... How many seeds and peers dose your .torrent have? What kind of wireless router are you using? What security software do you have?

Sorry. It finaly downloaded... but still, it's slow.

Do you mean "all" for seeds/peers?

Seeds: 7

Peers: 324

Router: Motorola WR850G

You need to look at your peers, for all active torrents. Are any of them showing initiation as REMOTE? If they're all local or NAT, then you've probably got your listen port blocked by a firewall. That's the biggest factor that will slow you down that much.

I've got the port that BitComet says it's using (in the preferances area) open, and I checked it with that websites, it's confirmed open.

About 1/2 of them are "remote".

Originally bitcomet trae 500 max TCP connections, and you have to chage it to 100 or 120.

Limit upload sockets to 25. If Your connection is DSL put only a fews KBs to UPload or your will get slower speeds...

You use Win XP SP2???

Put the Patch

You don't need that patch for BitComet. BitComet already takes care of it's connections by adjusting the settings to 8. That patch causes more problems now because its 14 months old while Windows has made even more updates to their TCP/IP stack. Why don't you try these ideas: read the settings guides, not use that patch, & not run any IM programs when you're trying to websurf & download.
