many seeds but no to slow download

[nickos]

I am having quite a dilemna, i hope i spelled it right, but that doesn't even matter, the problem is is that I have torrent such as the star wars saga.mp4, this torrent supposedly has 26 seeds which, I pretty helps the download move incredibly fast when connected, but for some reason the whole group of peers, once they get to a certain point stop but finally come back and move at a tortoise pace, all I need to know is if I am doing something wrong and how it may be fixed, another thing that comes with this is the fact that the download says I have about fifty gagillion peers but it doesn't show a trace of a connection, well I hope I don't waste some poor guys time trying to explain all this crap.
