Robert Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Back to the original question, I have Azureus, and it works quite well, my problem being a severe lack of disk space. Only a 6 gig drive on this pc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoMaster Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 I love Azureus too, I've been reading on the Bittorrent forums and such they say many people have the same problem. Everything works fine one day and the next...meh. Right now, there is about a million different possibilities about what has happened. Ranging from problems of SP2, providers, router, website problems...and the list goes on. It sux to be me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizard Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Well, i've had a similar problem like that a few times. all it required was for me to reboot my modem or my comp or both sometimes to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoMaster Posted February 11, 2005 Author Share Posted February 11, 2005 Dag nabbit! I finally got average speed to get upwards to 80-120 kb/s, but after a few minutes of getting to that level suddenly the connection becomes sh\t. It must be this stupid router that's preventing me from high speeds...ugh its more of a hassle than provides protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 Are you (the computer) the only one that uses the broadband connection? If so, then connect directly to the internet and use a firewall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoMaster Posted February 11, 2005 Author Share Posted February 11, 2005 Sadly no, i have to share it. A very ironic situation where if I download too much everything goes off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucandrake Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 You sure the other computer aint downloading anything while your doing this? Your internet download speeds might slow down in half because of this, and then the firewall will make it even slower, but I think the main problem is the servers/computers your downloading your files from.

It ebbs up and down as you download. Another thing to keep in mind is the seeders. Some people have really crappy upload speed. Lastly, if your torrent has a green smiley face, then your good to go. If not, then as mentioned before its probably a NAT problem. Usually, as K'dash mentioned, some Isp's block ports that Azureus uses. If your still having trouble, go to portforwarding.com. Or just google "portforwarding", and you should find faqs guiding you on how to configure your router to open ports and get rid of the yellow smiley to make it green (green means no problems ) Edited February 14, 2005 by Sturmvogel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
