Slow bit torrent uploads
« on: December 18, 2003, 05:56:19 am »
Is there any way to make my uploads go faster on bit torrent. I am getting upload speeds of about 2 -5 KBs. I have have the upload set to unlimited and i tried the other settings but nothing really changes it. My downloads are fine. I was getting 250 KBs, but i want to be able to share more. The upload is going at the same speed as when i was on 56k.

I love cable though. i am downloading the middle east show off of archive.org at 383 KBs right now. The wait for it to be available on my street was well worth it.

hey chris -

download something from etree\'s tracker (http://bt.etree.org)... then check and see if you\'re firewalled (there\'s directions on their page to check)... that may have something to do with it... but if your downloads are fine, that\'s prolly not it... hmm..

Upload cap by your ISP perhaps
