BitComet Using My Upload and Download Bandwidth when no task is on

[bitcometerror]

As you can see in the pic BitComet shows no Uploading or Downloading activity, but it using my bandwidth. What should I do?

Options -> Task -> Long-Time Seeding

You can disable it if you wish.

It still is using my bandwidth even after disabling long term seeding. :(

It still is using my bandwidth even after disabling long term seeding. :(

I also have the same problem. Bitcomet seems to show bandwidth usage even when no task is 'ON'.

What I do is that either I remove all the tasks (completed) from the list or I simply restart bitcomet. That way, the activity comes to '0' bandwidth usage.

Right now, I am facing a new problem.

The box in which the rank & Score is displayed is showing some wierd html codes instead of the actual screen. Don't know what's happening with 'Bitcomet'(just updated it to the latest version). It might be having some bugs.

I have the same problem ?!

This wasn't happen in version 1.28 !!! but since I installed the new version 1.32 >> every connection on my Laptop stopped (download, browsing, ...) so I used NetLimiter to see what is happened, and I found BitComet takes all my cable upload speed !! + some good download speed :( without any task running.

Even When a download task running, about every 20~30 minutes, this connection choke happened & the download task reaches 0 kB/s downlaod speed for 1~3 minutes and then resume again downloading by itself !! :( :(

P.S: I enabled Long Term seed before and it didn't cause this problem, but since this problem appeared, I disable the Long Term seed and made an global upload limit + task upload limit but with no result :(

Please help. I am using Bitcomet since 5+ years and this is a very annoying problem, I can't stand it anymore !! If this problem can't be solved I will be FORCED to use utorrent "which is the second best program after Bitcomet :("

Have you capped up your speed as per the BitComet Settings Guide?

Only if you did and you still have this problem head towards the Wiki and read this topic.

I have exactly the same issue with recent version of BitComet 1.33

It's using download bandwidth, while there are no downloads active (can reach 100KBp/s) and upload is taking nearly all possible bandwidth which in fact it's only uploading 1/3 of possible capacity.

In addition, it's also increasing CPU speed to half or can also reach 90% (not stable).

Eventually, it forces BitCommet to close or prompts a dialog that application stopped responding (while it will unfreeze a little later).

All this makes me restart the app several times a day and it blocks me from getting a proper amount of peers, makes uploading obsolete.

Please advise, thnx.

I also have this problem, BitComet is eating all my bandwith without downloading.

It would be great if someone could post a solution to this problem, the links here have not been of any help :(

I suggest you read Long-Term Seeding

In most cases this is normal behavior of bitcomet. If you feel yours is not normal then make a new topic after you read the "READ THIS before posting" topic.
