To forum members:
Stop recommending BitComet to Noobs coz bitcomet is notorious for not following torrent rules and many trackers have banned it.
I recommend using uTorrent 1.8.5, or use Azureus/Vuze...U can also try older versions of uTorrent 1.6.1 when it was not acquired by BitTorrent...because Bittorrent is notorious as its owned by some movie authority in the US or something

 First of all, there are two cases:

1. Ur on DSL
2. Ur on Local Cable network

For DSL users:
If ur on DSL and u have ur own modem, then get you need to set up a static ip on your pc and forward ports

http://www.portforward.com/networking/staticip.htm
http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm

search for your router/modem, then search for the torrent client u use, then follow the procedure.
after this, hopefully u'll have average speed.

If you still can't forward ports (i.e you see a yellow exclamation mark in uTorrent), try enabling DMZ, but I wouldn't recommend it because it opens ALL the ports which is highly unsafe. (this also works for online gaming)
It makes your computer's ports as if there is no router in between
For LAN Internet Users:
Check this link, test all Service Ports
https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2

the red boxes are the ports ur lookin for (open ports), put any of those ports in the client settings. (dont put port 80 or 21)

For Both type of users: DSL and LAN Internet
check this link : http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992

and ask all the torrent related questions here plz, no more new threads, I am on LAN internet, and before optimizations, i got 15-30kb/s dl, now i get 40-50kb/s!


*note* threads asking for torrent help will be closed from now on

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.

    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
