The other day I was wondering why my d/l speed in BitTorrent is so slow compare with others, (i understand that the more seed and the faster the peers u/l, the faster i d/l), then I found a faq about improving d/l limit with BT by doing Port Fowarding to my router according www.portforward.com ..
After a series of step by step procedure, I set my router to open its port from 6881-6889, afterward, I was able to achieve maximum speed that I never experience before.. My line is capped at 1.5mb but i was only able to d/l files at 20-30 average, after I foward the port in the router, I can see tremendous improvement, i am able to get up as fast as 150k/sec sometimes, if there are enough seeds.
Everything was all good until I found out my connection drops once a while, sometimes it resumes after a few minutes and sometimes i does not.. I'm not sure if it is the local ISP problem because I can still see all the LED blinking on my DSL modem.. And this thing really frustrate me cuz like when you leave it to d/l one night, the next day you come back it's only completed by 5% or so..
Any input will be appreciated,,
