zachtheyak Posted May 19, 2014 Report Posted May 19, 2014 I updated Bittorrent to the new 7.9.1 version 3 days ago. since then I am lucky to hit over 100kb/s but am generally less than 10kb/s on my downloads. Prior to the update everything was running at max all the time. Its not the torrents or the trackers because I have tried multiple torrents from multiple sources and none will improve.If anyone has this solution I would really appreciate it. I have not changed anything on my antivirus, and nothing else has changed on my computer. Only bittorrent. If there is no available fix, is there a way to roll back to the previous version of bittorrent? Thanks
zachtheyak Posted May 19, 2014 Author Report Posted May 19, 2014 No, those torrents seem to run at about 300-400kb/sNo, those torrents seem to run at about 300-400kb/s Scratch that, lasted at those speeds for about 2 minutes and then dropped just like the rest

junit123 Posted May 19, 2014 Report Posted May 19, 2014 You getting disk overload status in the status bar of the main window?Hey Harold, wasn't sure how to PM users... so I'm quoting you to see if that alerts your account and you'll see this. You helped me solve http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/8316-invisible-torrent/ and I just wanted to say thanks so I made an account.
zachtheyak Posted May 19, 2014 Author Report Posted May 19, 2014 I didnt follow any set up guide that I remember. When i booted the program it said a new version was available and do I want to download it. I hit yes, and the next thing I knew my downloads were slow as can be. I havent changed anything related to my connection in months.
zachtheyak Posted May 19, 2014 Author Report Posted May 19, 2014 What internet security software do you have installed? I use AVG, however bittorrent is set as an exception to the program. Same with my windows firewall
ajip73 Posted May 21, 2014 Report Posted May 21, 2014 Hi Harold.. I'm also have the same problem since updated to 7.9.1. The download speed is slowing down. Is there any solution for me? after I installed I just set the upload limit to 1kbs only. is there any other setting that I have to make/ thanks in advance..
graffixsphere Posted May 21, 2014 Report Posted May 21, 2014 Same here...and here's the thing. I have had Time Warner Cable for the past 8 years. It started doing it last week after I updated. Today I switched to U-verse, and the problem persists.
WSimpson Posted May 22, 2014 Report Posted May 22, 2014 I was having the same problem. I fixed mine by going to preferences -> bandwidth, and unchecked "Apply rate limit to uTP connections". (Only the last box is checked on mine, "Use additional upload slots...")
sonic Posted May 22, 2014 Report Posted May 22, 2014 I was having the same problem. I fixed mine by going to preferences -> bandwidth, and unchecked "Apply rate limit to uTP connections". (Only the last box is checked on mine, "Use additional upload slots...") Thank you for the solution. My first "solution" was changing the MAXIMUM UPLOAD RATE from 1 which was my option on the previous version of BitTorrent to 0 (unlimited). Once I made that change all my downloads started to download at great speed like if I just injected a turbo on the program. Once I limited back to 1 or 2 the download rate decreased rapidly. I try your solution and it works great (unchecking the uTP connections option) and now I get the fast download rates I am used to while having the upload at By the way, what is a uTP connection?
