As for the upstream, not a lot you can really do yourself tbh Might be worth while taking a trip to the VM newsgroups. The folks there will check your connection from their end and see that your levels are out and book you a tech call to sort it out. That should be free by the way as its not your fault the signal levels are wrong  |
I have found out that any upload slots under 11 affects my download speed, think its cos if its too low, then the technology thinks you wont upload back, and hence lowers your download speed, and I found out that when downloading, have your upload set at a maximum of 8KB/s this will make sure that your download speed aint affected
As a side note, my uTorrent settings are (without routers dropping and decent download speeds) :
Global Maximum connections : 1998
Maximum number of connected peers per torrent: 525
Number of upload slots per torrent: 35
As I said above, My Linksys 54GUK & BT HomeHub are fine with these settings above!
Also, I have found out that the Port used for incoming connections can effect your speeds, mine is set to 26894 and I can max out my connection on torrents (with decent seeders of course)
