I have cable and am using a wireless router.

I always have trouble and usually go slow, I think I am usually not getting enough seeds.

On torrents that say 20 seeds I will only get 1 or 2 out of 65

my speed rarely very high even though myspeed said I had an upload speed of a few Mb/s.


What can I do to make this go faster?

you need to forward a port from your router to your computer

1) Put your computer on a wired connection if you getting that much traffic.
2) Learn how to configure your specific router for P2P traffic.
3) Google how to not get caught doing anything illegal on P2P

make sure you don't have a cap on your uploads. i had mine accidently capped at 2 kb/s and i could only download at 12 kb/s.

^ that's why you use azureus which doesn't pay attention to the upload/download limit crap

^ unless you set it to so you don't piss off your roommates because you're a fucking dick taking up all the bandwidth.
