Thread: Configuring port forwarding for torrents in BSNL type-ii modem ?

Hi ppl,

i have A211-i wifi modem..
i get good torrent speeds only for certain torrents like linux ISO and other torrents hosted by companies..

I'm getting only 40-50kbps when dlding movies,videos,games etc..

why is it?
do i need to port forward??
how do i do that?
im a total n00b.. plz help me out..

What is your connection and max. speed?

i have 2mbps home 500c plan..

i easily get upto 200kbps..

Have you set your upload speed to unlimited???Set it to 15 KB/s.

Download only that torrents that are having very high seeders.
Use private trackers to download torrents.

If you are using Vista or 7, then download the Network meter (a sidebar Gadget).It shows the speed you are getting at the time. In the meter you will see the upload speed. Set your upload such that it never crosses 36 KB/s. If it will above that your download speed will suffer.

i've limited my upload speed and i usually verify it..

Any other suggestions??

Which downloader do you use?

I recommend to use private trackers to download torrents........
Do you download in public tracker??

How much items do you download at the same time......1 2 3

1. Go to speedtest.net, conduct a speed test and post the forum link.

2. Try torrents with Private tracker

3. Try TCP/IP optimizer from speedguide.net

4. Try port forwarding guide from portforward.com

5. Try Bridge mode and check.

Please note that the speed check will consume around 15 MB. It will be wise to do it during night unlimited.

Actually it depends on our internet connection.
For 2 Mbps, it consumes 2.1 - 2.4 MB for download and 280 - 740 KB for upload of data transfer.

For 8 Mbps connection, it consumes 15 MB.

I have investigated over this on all connections from 128 Kbps to 45 Mbps on www.speedtest.net

how to get them?

Unlike piratebay and isohunt there are sites which allows only members to download stuff. The member need to keep a good ratio. Eg. Demenoid.

You may need an invitation to get into private trackers. There are many sites where you get invites for private tracks or you can check with your friends.

Go to Bittorrent TRackers Automatic Checking System - A.K.A BTRACS and see the private trackers that are open for registering..............
Register on any one and after that start downloading with full speed.

In private trackers you have to maintain your Download/Upload ratio to good.

Speed is much less than what it should. Try a different server say Chennai or Newyork. Make sure that other applications are not using internet.
