Im currently downloading a torrent, 469 seeds, im connected to 5 Ive tried that portforward thing before, and it dosnt seem to help, can somebody please help?
Could depend on your ISP, share ratio on the site and your allotted upload in your client, happens to me all the time. Your ISP wouldnt happen to be Rogers, Shaw or Yahoo would it?
If you use utorrent (maybe other programmes too) you can choose to encrypt torrents. This means your ISP no longer knows the data is torrent data, so it might not block it like it may be.
Encryption doesn't work. In my case, rogers made the bright decision to throttle ALL encrypted traffic. ALL - not only bittorrent. Logging into my credit card and bank takes for damn ever from time to time, argh.
thats not my problem, there were 1894 seeds (approx.) and I culd only connect to 18. It took me almost 4 hours to download that torrent.
