Hi! I'm new to Baka Bt. So new, I am still in the waiting days before more extensive browsing can be done.

I haven't been able to figure out uTorrent very effectively so far. It has been hit or miss, and none of my tweaking seems to be much help.

I have read a lot about seeders and leechers, and see how that goes, but I also wonder how at times my seed rate can be less than 1kbps, and other times hovering between 70-90kbps, for the same torrent.

It does seem that the most I can get out of my client is that 70-90 range. Even though my Internet service can upload at far greater speeds, just not as a torrent.

I though I'd ask here, as when I ask questions in the utorrent forum, the answers are far above my head. SO I am hoping that simple otakus can make things a bit clearer for me. That is if anything can be done really.

jaybug, your questions might have been addressed in the wiki or previous threads before. Search for similar problems posted by members, you can find the answer there.

jaybug:
Did that.

BuriaL:
You should figure out what speed youre connection is first.

Then:
- Get a firewall.
- Open the ports.
- Set up utorrent to fit youre connection.
- Develop patience when uploading.

Theres some thread about it in this forum. Shouldnt be hard to find.

jaybug:
I didn't say I couldn't upload. I just wonder how to do better than I am currently. Like those who upload to me at over 130kbps, which seems to be about the best I can remember seeing.

I'm sure things would be much faster if my ISP actually gave me the level of service I pay for. But I'm stuck at where I am at, because the next level down is less than I am now able. I pay for 10Mbps, get around 3Mbps on speed test, and the next down is 1.5Mbps.

Also, sometimes, and I guess it just depends on who else is seeding at the time, I can upload at 70-90 kbps from one specific torrent to one leecher, and sometimes even to that same leecher I can't give more than 1kbps.

I was just hoping it was more than hit or miss as far as number of connections, upload slots, etc. And keep throwing numbers at it, until you don't get any better.
