torrenting issues/traffic shaping
Hi techies,
had some broadband issues recently which are now all sorted and I've got good, reliable (touch wood) internet provided by BT business. Speedtest
gives 2Mbps d/l and 0.36Mbps u/l via wireless.
I haven't torrented in months as I've been using a very good media streaming site (ninjavideo) which has just been shutdown. Regularly
stream 500MB-1GB (2+ episode of tv/a film) a night.
Now I've come to use utorrent again and I'm getting no speed whatsoever. Currently connected to 72 seeds and getting an avg d/l speed of
about 1kb/s.
I've encrypted the traffic, portforwarded and used glasnost (http://broadband.mpi-sws.org/transparency/bttest.php) to check for any traffic
shaping on my line with everything coming up clean.
Anything else I can try??
Many thanks.
Craig

Paying for dc/dvd/downloads instead?
I'm in Vietnam at the moment (for the next three months) and a little shop near me sells dvd quality copies for less than a US dollar each!
Within a week of premiere all the new films are out.
A bird in the hand....

all sorted now, but thanks for the replies.
Seems to be an issue with the client which is has been rectified now I've swapped it for another.
