kluelos Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Look at the tracker tab to see if it is giving you any error messages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 this often happens to new users who don't understand how bit torrent works. Please check to see if the torrent is seeded. (a torrent without seeds will not download) If the torrent is seeded, then provide more info about this torrent so we can help you further. If your not sure what these terms mean, then I suggest you start here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bittorrent Suspect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoodedeskimo Posted August 6, 2006 Author Share Posted August 6, 2006 the downloads do start now...after i left it on for like a full day. but the download speed is very very slow. its usual pace is 2 kb, sometimes going up to 4 kb...and then dropping back down to zero for quite some time. i find this strange. is it suppose to be faster than just 2 kb?? can someone help me find a way to boost the speed? ab the seeds, there are seeds. matter fact, there are quite a couple. it just wont go fast enough..! ah. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Shroud Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Just because you have a fast download doesn't mean they have a fast upload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
