    Unhappy Home 500 plan Slow speed

    hi,i am using bsnl home 500 plan which claims to have a speed of 2mbps
    which means my download speed should be around 250kbps but i only get a speed of around 180kbps
    i mostly use torrents with high no. of seeds(i use bittorrent)
    is there any way to optimize my connection speed

    Go to speedtest.net, conduct a speed test and post your result here. Please note that it will consume around 15 MB.

    What you are getting is a good speed. There are many users with same problem. Anything above 180 is good. Try TCP/IP optimizer from speedguide.net. Do port forwarding.

    Your values seems ok. Can you post the screen shot of your torrent client while in use.

    thedemon99 check your line rate in your router GUI page. If shows to you Download rate 2048Kbps or above and Upload 256Kbps or above then you are good.

    port forwarding dose not requir for private torrent with good number of seeder. You are not connectable but the seeder who use the seedbox ( allmost all good private traker's member are useing it because of the ratio ) that IP is connectable to you. So if you get the 180KBps in your torrent client from a private traker then the speed is set in BRAS is 180KBps. You cant maximize this from your side.

    BRAS is in BSNL server.

    I see your screenshot.You cant get the 200KBps on this torrent. Because the leecher is very high then the seeder and the torrent you are useing this is not a private torrent.

    Sign up with this private torrent.

    It seems ok. There is no need to port forward. If I am correct, there is not much that you can do about it. This is a BSNL issue. That is why they say up to 2 Mbps. Not everyone is to get to that value. Please mention you connection mode. Is it PPPoE or Bridge ?

    You are in bridge mode then. No need of port forwarding. All ports are open by default.

    If your speed set to 200KBps in your plan policy in BSNL side then you will get 200KBps by useing this private traker.

    LOL The good private torrent site banned users from India
    it's true
    You can try to chage your IP by disconnect and reconnect to your BSNL ISP
    the first torrent site is very best site among the private traker.

    You are getting the maximum speed from BSNL server............
    Your downloading speed is less due to torrent...........
    By using a good Torrent, u can get max speed of around 200-210 kbps but if u download something directly via IDMan ur download speed will go upto 230-240 kbps............

    They are not open signup as free for the new member. Donate e10
    TB open signup as free for the new member and it's best among the private traker. scc tl and waffels they close signup and thats why people are thinking this are the best. The above site you mention I have those so I know this.

    You dont read his thread. He was not member of TB so there is no qustion about ban his IP because of pissed of the admins and not for the 1:1 and in SCC India is ban. The new member cant join there.
    Before post a comment you need to read the thread carefully

    Its ok . u can never get full speed it always less than your plans speed because some speed is reserved for uploads( which is used to connect ).

    Another good private torrent site Revolution has ban India from 1st February 2010.
    Below is the news from their site

    As of our Goodwill Weekend many of you may have heard we blocked certain countries from signup to Revolutiontt. This decision wasn't made lightly, since opening the site so many years ago we've had several geographic locations that continue to be a issue for us. Not all but most users from these areas are repeatedly breaking site rules and take up a huge amount of staff time to respond to and take appropriate action. As a result membership has been closed to the following countries and current users from these regions are not eligible for invites.

    Brazil
    Egypt
    India
    Israel
    Pakistan
    Portugal
    Romania
    Saudi Arabia
    Turkey

    All current user from these region can rest assured your continued use of the site will not be blocked. From this point on however no new members from these countries will be allowed. Failure to comply with this will result is the loss of both accounts.
