speed

Asked by smarn

I Have 2.5 ADSL connection - with adsl-router modem digicom.

 From the time I Have installed 0.705 Dc++ release I have been experiencing slow connection, segment downloading do not exceed 15 kb ps, regardless from whom I am downloading from (cable, dsl,lan) and if he/she has one or more slot free.

Do I need to set up something?

Unfortunately it does not help. I have already opened 1 port through UPNP behind the router, but it do not speed up.

Segment dowloading seems to slow down the download.

Does segment downloading implies a maximum dowload speed for segment? Is there a way to improve the speed?

Thanks a lot

Segment downloading is a new feature but it doesn't slow down the download speed on a speed of an average adsl connection. While it will be improved in the next release its - just as the normal download - uses the whole bandwith until you set some download speed limit in the Settings (check it if its in default state!)
Have you ever made a download speed test of your connection? (www.speedtest.net) Also many providers limit known p2p protocols and on some bad adsl connections uploads can slow down downloads a lot.
Also you may try to set the manual port forwarding as in many routers UPnP is broken. Check either your router settings and your software firewall (if you use any) for DDoS protection / Internet monitor or similar settings. Their presence can produce slow downloads.

There is a great faq at uTorrent forum about similar problems, read the sticky posts here : http://forum.utorrent.com/viewforum.php?id=11

If none of these helps the best you can do is to wait to the new release.

Where Can I see if there is a speed limit in the download?

Do I need to tune automatic priority?

Settings / Downloads / Limits

Auto priority has no connection with download speeds.
