    Hello all,

    Have had real hassle getting anything outta my torrents this last hour or so.

    I know that another Boards member PM'd me having the same problem.. could possibly be new security measures or something by Eircom?

    Anyone else having the same problem?!

    Just fired up Az to see...getting AWFUL speeds on the downstream...I'll let it run a while and see if it improves.

    Have you tried changing your default listen port in case the ISP has it blocked?

    Okay....been running for about 20min now and speed has improved somewhat, so I'd say there's no problem (but I'm on IOLBB)

    Speeds are very good for me at the moment on IOLBB. Although I noticed they were pretty bad earlier.

    Torrent's are still all muck!

    Have my Port Forwarding set up correctly.. and they were working fine earlier on. Have 3 torrent's currently open - each only downloading 1 - 3KB / sec... :mad:

    Will restart the modem now as the speeds are seriously pissing me off. 2 torrents at 0KB/sec and 1 at 1KB/sec!

    Seems to be improving now.. one finished downloading and the other two are at 18KB/sec and 26KB/sec.

    Strange though!
