Anyone good with working Torrents?

ISP's sometimes throtle certain known bittorent ports but if they do it after a few minutes that seems a bit fast.

As far as uploading goes, this can be a wide range of things. First check your maximum number of connections per torrent. This shouldn't be unlimited. The lower you put it, the less system recources it uses. Try it with 60 or 40 connections. The times you can upload with 20k/b are probably when there are not alot of seeders so you won't have hundreds of open connections.

If this doesn't help, fiddle with the settings and ports. Read your sites faq and help topics, maybe they have a set port range and kick anything other than those ports.

I don't know about your pc specs but if its an real oldie than it might have trouble running bittorent. Certainly azureus which uses a pretty big chunk since its java based.

Yeah, I've seen the list of throttled ports 7 the site suggests using a range from some odd number to another, but I set my client to use those numbers & it didn't make much of a difference. Part of the problems could be linked to a problem I'm having with the client. If I open a torrent the client tells me there's an error, something about to many arguements.
So I have to open the client then the torrent.

As for uploads, at the speed I use for 20kbs uploads I think the max uploads is 4.
It's jsut I'll be seeing the peers, then bam, they'll disappear.

I think I'm going to reset my port range though in hopes that that ight help.

I think my dad is abut to tell me to stop with all the torrents though. If I have a single torrent going at 3 kbs he can barely get his computer to go anywhere, due to the fact that for some reason my computer sucks up all the banwidth..not like I'm complaining

Thanks man.
