Is anyone else having problems getting over 12K on torrents?
I am easily peaking at 2Mbs on local speed tests, and am not sure why uTorrent is capping at such a low speed.
My only guess is that it is @ the ISP end, and they are throttling my traffic.


...some investigation later...


Well, I'll absolve XNet of responsibility on this one, as Azureus seems to be working fine, but it doesn't really solve my problem...

Any ideas why uTorrent would be misbehaving?

Hello Mr0,

You might want to look at port forwarding your router for the ports utorrent uses, or there may be some relation to your seeding/download ratio, not familiar with utorrent myself but if all else fails im sure they should have a support forum somewhere that can point you in the right direction.
