using the bittorent client. why does it take so in long to download. why does it go max 3 kb/s everytime!!!!

they typically start off slow and then pick up speed once more of the files is downloaded. it's all in the way torrents work. read up on it somewhere. also make sure that the torrent health is good i.e its seed to peer ratio and like that.

There are thousands of factors...maybe your ports are closed or something, or there isn't enough people seeding...or your firewalled...etc.


I usually get around 100-200 kb/s depending what i'm downloading. My Music site i can get > 150kb/s...movies > 50kb/s...porn > 100kb/s...Games > 50kp/s

But it all depends on where you're leeching from and how many people you're leeching off of.

If your behind a router you got to open the designated UDP and TCP ports that the client software is using as well!

It goes at 3 kb/s because you're a ing n00b and don't know what you're doing when it comes to opening ports, and torrents in general. Wops and technology do not mix.

The attempt here wasn't to win a Pulitzer prize in hate speech, so I'm glad you think it's tame. The idea is to raise a smile or two, not to come across as a certified bigot.
