Violander Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Hi, I am sorry for what is probably a painfully common question, but I moved into a new apartment halls and find that my torrents are extremely slow. Most likely due to "Port not open (you are still able to download)", which I am guessing is the result of some sort of restriction. Problem is this: I have not done anythign to the computer and 2 weeks ago it was working fine. The only variable is I moved into new halls, but it's the same ISP and I called them up and they reassured me they are placing no restriction at all I would really appreciate some sort of advice on how to proceed. Thanks just some notes:i disabled the antiviruses/firewalls and added bittorrent as exceptions Twice now the speeds have, for short periods of time, gone up a lot. That happened when I started Torrent after restarting the computer - for one torrent suddenly the speed jumped to 4MbpsOverall speed of the internet - 30MbpsTorrent Average speed - 100KBs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirill2485 Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 What is the brand of your router, (like Netgear or Cisco) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violander Posted September 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 That's one of the issues. I don't know the router as it's a apartment wide network. I tried finding out using my Default Gateway but I get nothing. I will try and ask the reception some time today. Do you know of any way to find that out (except the IP address into browser). From readnig around, I guess the only option left is that there is some sort of firewall on the router, yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
