Posted January 31, 200619 yr I posted a forum earlier which was pretty helpful, but for some reason I am still having problems. I am trying to run Azureus, and I have opened port 7881 for use when dling, but for some reason it says my TCP port is open, but my UDP is closed? Therefore only incoming TCP is available which slows dling. The fastest I have ever gotten was like 103 KB/s dload. I have a 6 Megabit/s Download and a 384 Kilobit/s upload. I had my Universal Upload set at like 20, but was getting like 500 bytes a second? It seems like no matter what settings I do, or no matter how many tutorials I read I am never getting the super speeds that I see other people getting. If anyone is like an expert at Azureus then plz I am looking for tons of help. Anyone with any advice plz post here for me, and for anyone else who undoubtadly has questions about torrents!
January 31, 200619 yr Maybe it's the seeds? Anyways, have you gotten faster speeds on other clients? Another thing might be the ports, I have 6881 and 16881 open, don't know why but I never have problems, and I can pull 100 kb/s, even with a shitty internet split to 4 other computers. (Thats only if there are good seeds though). Google is your friend and be patient and stuff.

I take it with 'opened port 7881' you mean you forwarded it via your router to your local IP, or opened it up with a firewall. If first is true, you need to make sure you open both the UDP and TCP ports, because Azureus needs to use both. If second is true you should try running Azureus without the firewall on and see if it works, or run through the firewall config again. Annother option could be that your ISP has blocked that port's UDP. Some ISP's are known to block standard ports used by p2p of fast download programs to disallow their clients savaging server bandwith. You should try changing the port to 16881, this is also the port I use and the tutorial I read recommended. Also if you change the port don't forget to close the old and forward the new one on your router/firewall. Annother known problem capping your downloadspeed is the fact you have no uploadspeed limit. You need to set the max. upload limit in Azureus to around 80% - 90% your max. connection speed. This is due to every time you downloaded a piece from a peer you send a small confirmation of receiving the file, and then the peer sends a new bit of file. If you are uploading 100% these messages can be delayed and thus the peer won't send you a new bit of file. PS. also something I really recommend is setting Azureus to reserve HD space before the download, so you do not get a fragmented file of 10000 pieces at the end.
January 31, 200619 yr could always try to uncape your modem. Not really suggestable though.. unless you am 100% fucking certain you know what you're doing, and your ISP won't fucking find out. (which they will anyway making it all futile)
February 3, 200619 yr what's your share ratio at?? if you have a habit of ending uploads before the file is complete your ip might be blocked from a lot of the seeders which will ultimately make your download slower.
February 3, 200619 yr what's your share ratio at?? if you have a habit of ending uploads before the file is complete your ip might be blocked from a lot of the seeders which will ultimately make your download slower. on a public tracker the ratio shouldnt really make a difference should it?
February 3, 200619 yr err, hmm.. never heard of such a thing. how does that work according to you? I usually download using the public tracker from http://www.torrentspy.com, or atleast I download the torrents their, dunno if they have their own tracker. I end some downloads before I hit the 1.000 sharing barrier but that's usually with small files, big files I end up having shared 2.000+ before the download actually finishes.:O_o:
February 14, 200619 yr http://www.utorrent.com 4 megs of ram low cpu, rapes az. so much better, try it maybe java is fucked on your pc
