Bitcomet help

BitComet BitComet General Discussion

When I used bitcomet .69 I got very high dl speeds of an average of 100kbs. Now I just downloaded .70 and my downloads dropped to 20kbs or so, this is even with files with over 3k seeders, then I download a very small file<100mb the download speeds go up to 200kbs. Anyone know what happened to my computer? Is this a problem with my computer because I just reformated it, and I also turned off my routers firewall, and my xp firewall.

Also when I tried to download .69 and installed it gave me an error, you guys should check it out. I download .68 perfectly.

Have you remembered to limit your upload speed correctly?

Yes i have, I have my dl and upload at 700/80

Its wierd too because When I go online with firefox while dling a file, the dl speeds go from 50 to 80.

Okay, so now I gotta know what connection you’re on..

DSL

Hey what’s up guys? Just dropped by to see if I could help.

DSL, with that connection I would think you would have an advantage to maintaning a constand dl speed whereas cable users like myself are at risk for a not so constand dl speed.

As long as your upload rate is limited then you should be fine (as long as the # of seeders out# the # of leechers)

Good thing to note is that in the long run a high upload rate is going to benefit you more than a limited one <<< Would take me some time to explain but I’m sure you can find it the FAQ and how the whole Bittorent client functions in general.

You got rid of the firewalls, if you’re on a router make sure you have rid of that firewall as well. Is your pc on a home network of any kind?

I got my problem solved.

You better have atleast one firewall running. Never connect to the internet without a firewall.

That is really bad advice.
