In the peers tab there is a column that is called “KB/s Peer Dn” I am guessing that that is the is the total that that person is downloading all ther people connected to the torrent. My question is how can there be people that are downloading at 50+ or even 300KB/s and yet I am downloading only 1-6KB/s. I know that it is not my settings becasue some torrents I download at 200 or 300kB/s too.
If you have a router have you portforwarded it??? This will dramatically increase your download speed.
Could be that those other peers are more connectable(portforwarded) or have better bandwidth then you so they are hogging all the available upload bandwidth and your just getting the leftovers.
