My torrents download at line speed.. You picking torrents with good seeds? Have you tested a ubuntu torrent?

http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.10/ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent

Yes tried that and it's super slow. Going at like 7 Kbps and connecting to 1 seed only. I don't understand why??!

I got a 2 Mbps line

Woke up this morning to see my p2p still crawling slow! Maybe it's time to change ISP's

I don't care what anyone says but p2p is definitely been heavily shaped on my capped account!

please test with http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.10/ub....torrent?_ga=1.109328780.803737205.1473599193

Sorry, missed this post.

Are you using utorrent?

EDIT: I think there's something wrong with your setup.

 

[standerr]

Not sure why, but Google music is really struggling. Cannot download music via the Android app for offline access.
All other Google services are fine. P2P, speed tests, etc also fine.
Using auto dns.

Deluge and uTorrent

Well, I get full speed with the ubuntu torrent as of right now.

Try running setup guide in utorrent, test bandwidth and network, then set per torrent connections the same as global, then only allow 1 active torrent in the queue settings. This is how I have mine setup.

Interesting that on bit torrent, i get a better connection on my torrents, if i run multiple torrents and not just 1

How is this interesting? More torrents = more seeds

I find if one does the "setup guide" so that the client actually tests your connection speed and chooses the best number of global connections for your connection, then set per torrent connections to the same as global, then make sure the queue is set to 1.

I find if only one active torrent, then the client finds more seeders quicker. Of course if your torrent is old with low seeds then you can increase the number of active torrents at once until it's saturating your line, I find 2 or 3 is fine, but generally, I always saturated my line with 1 torrent.

I find uTorrent terrible with all the video ads that decrease the speed on the torrents.

It's the only one I'm used to, and I've disabled mine.

Torrents worse tonight:

How do you disable the video ads? I thought the only way to do that is to upgrade to Pro version.
