Thread: Very Slow Dl speeds

Hi,

I am facing the following issues in the BSNL broadband:

1. The DL speed for torrents is only around 15kbps (avg) with max of 25-27kbs (at some times).

2. I also get the message of the connection not properly formed (A yellow icon on UTorrent status bar)

I am under 256 Unlimited plan. Is there anyway I can substantially increase the DL speeds. I read here that many people are getting 100-150+ speeds, I wonder if that could be achievable.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks and Happy Diwali,

Ps: I am not sure, if the port is forwarded (using a random port of 44000), as I just could not understand the concepts to do that.

Happy Diwali.

Please mention your modem - model and make

Try TCP/IP optimizer from speedguide.net. Also try port forwarding.

Hi,

My modem/router model make is WA3002G4. If you could pls share the URL for the TCP methods, I will try them out.

Thanks for your time.

Regards,

Edit: Sorry, thanks for the URL too.

Try this

Port Forwarding Utorrent on the UTStarcom WA3002-G4

or

Port Forwarding Utorrent on the UTStarcom WA3002-G4v2

If you are on 256 unlimited, by any method you will not get speed higher than 256kbps or 32kBps (unless you change ur plan).... 100-150+ is possible for limited plans(home, business etc)

Remember,1 Byte=8bits

For kiloByte per second we type KBps

For kilobit per second we type Kbps

U r on UL plan so u will get max speed of 256Kbps=32KBps.

we get 100-150 KBps speeds because i am on limited plan.

because u get 15 KBps try tcp optimizer.

Thank you, I did run a optimiser, I guess that worked. My speeds are now at 27-28Kbps. I guess, that is the upper limit.

thank you everybody for taking time to answer.

Happy Diwali and best regards

Welcome
