So I'm downloading a 600mb torrent and I'm getting an average of about 3kb/s. I've forwarded the ports in the way the guides tell me, but the speeds have not improved. The best I got out of it was 10kb/s when it was 300% health with about 6 peers/4 seeds. Is anyone else in Australia getting this annoying result out of their downloader, or have you found a way around it? Anyone can tell me how to max it out.
I've had to resort to leaving the PC on while I'm at school. Using this method I hope to have the file by the end of the week.

What torrent program do you use?
-
wtf i had a 5gb file in like 6hrs :S
-
WTF

Happens to me all the time, It's not your fault. Find a better one with a decent connection with a bit more seeders and you'll get like 100-200 (my avg is like 80 though, but sometimes reaches 170, on a 1500/256 connection)
-
It's about your connection and torrent's seeds, use private trackers for best solution.

What torrent program do you use?
BitComet 0.7. Should I use a different one?

Don't tease me.
WTF
I KNOW RIGHT

Even downloading from the internet I only get a max of 55kb/s. It could be because of my distance from the city, or because of my router/wireless speeds. Here's a screen:
-
I use Grabit
-
Torrents used to be slowish for me too, then we bought the router up here to get it on my brothers computer and we had an extra e-net cord and hooked up my pc to it and it was alot faster. (I now get 500-600kbs from websites)
So if you can get off wireless while you're downloading.
-
I've tried just unplugging the wireless and left the cord in, but it didn't work. I'll try it again tomorrow morning.
-
Use uTorrent
-
I use BitLord, works ok for me... What are you downloading, a PS2 game ?
-
I usually get about 2mbs.
And yes I said that only to make you jealous
-
YOU'RE ALL MONSTERS
I might try another downloader. Maybe BC is just homo.
-
Use µTorrent/ABC/Azureus, that's the first step. Then trigger the port your client is using, www.portforward.com may help a bit. Make sure the torrent has a lot of seeders, without 'em you won't get anything. As I said, use private trackers for better result.
It's all about your connect. For example, if you have a 1/512 connection, you won't download a lot faster than ~100kB/s. Properly working wireless connection doesn't eat the speed.
-
Use uTorrent
yeah
-
I use BitLord.
Make sure you have a good trackerlist, listen port opened, good torrent with lots of seeders (no spys ) and... torrent uses a credit system, the more you upload, the more you get.
I recommend testing the Fedora Project (Linux) torrents for testing cause those have tons of seeders and they are legal.

Small trackerlist by me, warning: could have trackers which also feed illegal or adult content. You have been warned...
But torrents are slow in australia anyway cause of the great distance to most seeders, some trackers even block leechers from your region which is making it even worse. I recommend reading the wikipedia article on torrents so you understand what you are doing while downloading using torrents.
-
Who the hell would use this to something illegal...?
uTorrent is still preferred in most of trackers.
