Swimmer Posted March 5, 2006 CID Share Posted March 5, 2006 Welcome to the Forum! Are you talking about your download speeds on the torrents? if that is the case there are a few other things that you can try.. What torrent tracker are you using?

Swimmer Posted March 5, 2006 CID Share Posted March 5, 2006 you need to forward ports 6881-6890 tpc/udp for the full speed. It might just be tcp i think but forward both just incase.. once you forward them go to this website and run the test.. http://btfaq.com/natcheck.pl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brock01 Posted March 5, 2006 CID Share Posted March 5, 2006 i wouldnt forward those ports, you need to choose random ones, those are default and i wouldnt use them, on trackers its suggested you make a port number up your self, above 20000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
