bigbluebear Posted June 14, 2005 Author CID Share Posted June 14, 2005 where do you find your advertised speed? i know bit torrents can be slow but my friend is on the same internet provider, same city, and my computer is faster and he can download stuff on the same bit comet program faster. i can get usually 1-2kb/s and he says that he gets a lot of times around 100kb/s.

FallowEarth Posted June 14, 2005 CID Share Posted June 14, 2005 Something you can find out from your Internet Service Provider. There are usually different speed packages available, so although your friend may be on the same ISP, you may have different packages.

TheHated Posted June 14, 2005 CID Share Posted June 14, 2005 You should call your ISP and ask them what package you got, then we'll be able to help you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbluebear Posted June 16, 2005 Author CID Share Posted June 16, 2005 i just did a test on the site for my isp and it shows my down speed at 5.5mbps and up speed at 480kb/s. my advertised speed is 5mbps and 640kb/s. so the speed is fine. why can't i download faster than 2-3 kb/s?
