anyones dsl download slow snce yesterday? im getting 10kb max wen use to get 25kb at the most - torrent has good amount of seeds and peers so its not the torrent

i also testewd it with downloadin from a web site and using the normal default downloader in windows - still slow

anyone else with slow download problems all of a sudden

[Kornball]

maybe you're right. but sometimes it shows as it is conected but doesn't load any page. i don't know if it's only me or someone else has the same problem. i fix it by disconnecting the router and waiting sometime to get cooled down. anyway, the download speed is good and the service too.

the real thing that bothers me is that i cant play age of empires 2 online, or get the bittorrent to get a decent download rate. i'm sure it has something to do with the configuration ports on the router, but i dont mess with it because i dont know a thing about it. if anyone can help me, i will apreciate a lot.
THX.

adsl was giving some wierd trouble for me around 7,8 ish

was getting no pages open..and http dls were slow as in 2KB kind of slow lol..funny thing was that torrents were good to go ..wking at all 15-20KB which is good seeing as how the torrent only has bout 2 seeds ..anywayz seems normal now

where do you check your logs? I want logs too!

The only thing is I am getting damn slow 0-1KB download from torrents, and that is only when it *starts* downloading!
But I still get good speeds from the net, so I was thinking it is just BitComet messing up. Hope it doesn't get too bad and they have to 'repair' (loss of service...)

[Senti_al]

hexx i have the same problem ..wen i say the same i mean exactly the same

web pages opening normal fast
p2p limewire dls working good as ever
torrent downloading - terrible bout 8-9KB for the most

not only with bitcomet hexx ..i tried a newly 149 seeded torrent with bit comet,azureus and u torrent and all gave the same poor results

must be tstt way of stopping all the fun of torrent downloading

[cismcse]

Hey this is not the first time am hearing ppl with adsl complaining about a drop in download speeds for torrents.... is TSTT limiting torrent downloading? or is this a result of the work being done on the International submarine cable ?

[Senti_al]

i relly tink they are limiting torrents ..cuz how could be doin work for so long now (started bout one wk or more ago) and everything else is working top notch ..besides the torrents

[dpds68]

I just pinged the life out of google and my connection is still dropping every now and then but yes torrents downloads are really slow now .

[Specialist]

I dont kno y u guys are having problems with torrent speeds. i use azureus to download torrents and my download speed varies usually between 20kbps and 30 kbps if there are adequate seeds.

[Senti_al]

20kbps is 20 divided by 8 which is 2.5 KBs so i think u mistake as to wat u said ..u probably meant 20 KBs (160kbps)

u getting confuse Specialist lol


right now im start to go back to my normal speeds but not there yet ..about 15-18KBs for the most ..tstt spoilin all the fun

[Specialist]

lol my mistake. ur correct i really meant to say 20KBs.

[Senti_al]

20KBs is good especially in torrents but we are suppose to be getting at least 30KBs minimum with a proprerly seeded torrent ..not 10-25KBs

before it was goin at 30KBs now the same torrents with even more seeds have a speed of 15KBs..

and calling in and reporting this not gonna makee ah difference becuz all the other downloading and net surfing is working properly. they probably jus block something with the UDP/TCP with torrents since this is happening to most DSL users in tnt (i know this from others)
