The UnUsual Suspect Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 On popular torrents, you'll usually get faster speeds with bitcomet because of it's ability to download from sources other then the bittorrent swarm, so this is unusual. I suspect the "different computer" is what is making the difference here. Something on this computers setup or internet connection could be making it difficult to get sucessful connections.
