It’s really very, very sad to see what is happening. Everyone is trying to overcome the problem that is created (intentionally) by the service provider that the whole country has depended on for decades. It’s about time we look to alternative ISP for a better service.
That’s almost certainly baseless rumor. NOBODY blocks all the ports, that would cripple far more than P2P and wouldn’t be tolerated. If you block all 65536 ports, you’ve made the machine completely autistic, and you cannot communicate via TCP to anything, anywhere. There is no longer any purpose in connecting to that network, because it’s dead. The problem is elsewhere, and attending unsubstantiated hearsay will only complicate the mattter unnecessarily.
BitComet doesn’t care which listen port it uses. Makes no difference whatsoever to it, and there is no advantage at all in choosing one port over another. This is quite unlike some other applications which do expect/require traffic to be on a certain port or ports.
We choose some ports over others because those others are commonly used for other purposes, and we don’t want to possibly interfere with them. It’s convenience, not a requirement.
You must limit your global maximum upload speed. This is discussed in the settings guide and in the FAQ. If you do not limit it, BC will stumble over itself and also interfere with other applications.
dportgas,
What is your maximum download speed? If I am not mistaken, streamyx states its package based on kbps. BC uses kBps. Corrent me if I am wrong. Thanks!

Maybe streamyx is using the same thing as TM net (see this list)
check out the proposed encryption ?
I use the same package. The best I have ever seen is 70+kB/s for download and 45 kB/s for upload. My Global Max Download Rate and Global Max Download Rate are set to be No Limit. But then the torrent that I download usually has less than 50 peers. So, not sure if that is the max speed.

I’m in bangi rite now, n where r u ? why u got no problem ? um.. in bangi and kajang still got no speed for torrent and p2p.. suck TMnut!!
No speed at all? I assume your Internet access is just fine, right? I am in PJ.
Is D-LINK dsl 504T router or router modem?

Dear Malaysians,
BitComet really dying nowadays…2 weeks ago…my speed is OK…but recently the speed sux!!! only 0,1 or 2 K!!!I’m using streamyx 512kbps in Miri. How about everyone of u? I heard from my sister in KL, the speed is OK…so wat happen actually???TMnuts limited the bandwidth..how true is this??? I test using the speedometer and try http download, the speed is OK…
Hikkikomuri was right, we pay for the bandwidth…they should provide us the service…i always call their customer service centre n screw them…service maintenance always take weeks!!!i ask for discount…they ask me write in…sux…
If they really limited the bandwidth, i had one suggestion for those subscriber using TM net modem, try damage their modem (by watever way) and ask them to replace!!! After replace damage it again!!!If everyone of us do this way sure they will b very very busy!!!
Anyway, please do reply me as I’m waiting weeks for the speed to get better…
I would suggest that you ask someone (IT guy) to help, preferably someone in your living area. Your problem sounds serious because it should not be bad for 2 weeks.
Are you sure it is not torrent specific issue? Are all the torrents experience slowness? Are there may peers connected to you?
K.C
I really duno y…when download using http the speed is normal…only bitcomet!!! Peers connected not much…but even a lot..more than 20 the speed is also slow…I ask my sis in KL to dl using the same seed and at the same time, she can get 20+KBps but mine…0, 1 K!!!Please someone help…Is is true TMnut block up the thing??
It is really sad that we have been mislead by our very own ISP for so long, please read :

so, I think we now know what is happening to our speed.
it seem like malaysian’s ISP is blocking up Bitcomet…
