Jamie_the_Jambo Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 This is driving me stir crazy !! I upgraded my broadband to 2MB and it became active today. I decided to test my torrent speeds as this is the reason for upgrading. I thought I'll download a movie with plenty of seeds. I had 29 seeds and 19 peers and my max download speed was 2.5Kbs !!! FFS what am I doing wrong !! Port forwarding is set up ok. HELP ?? Jamie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest S.U.S.S. Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Could be very low speed seeds but most likely When a line is turned on or upgraded the speed fluctuates wildly for 3-5 days until it settles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
