Hi,

Could anyone please give me a helping hand,

Azureus 2.3 had been working great, but now every time I pen it up, I get 80Kb/s then after baout a minute I go down to 0.1kb/s. Please help me, I don,t think its any of my settings. And I'm pretty sure its not my internet connection, because I can always download from the internet fine etc. without it cutting out, and I'm right near my router with full Airport reception, port forwarding all the usual...

Thanks alot for any input
 
I'm on cable and I put a cap on my upstream of about 22kb/s. This greatly improved Azureus performance for me.

The amount of seeders online can reduce your download rate as well.

It may be that you are a 'low-priority' on the torrent(s) you are after. In which case, there's not much you can do but be patient. The more you download, the more you'll have to offer (seed) - and thus your priority increases (along w/ download speed.)

Karma is built in to the system.

yeh, I can see what tour saying, but these torrents have been on for several hours and no action they litterally decline from 80kb/s to 0 and I can't even seed them
