Dire upload speeds on all torrent sites

[cookster]

Hi,

Been with VM on 4mbit connection for a while and always got 40k upload on the 3-4 torrents sites I use. However over the last 2 weeks I've been hardly getting 1k no matter how popular the torrent files is.

I've made no changes to my config and all ports are forwarded fine via uTorrent.

Download is fine, i.e. 400 - 480k - anyone else having similar problems?

BTW i'm connected via cpc3-asht1-0-0-cust473.manc.cable.ntl.com.

Thanks in advance!

Visit speedtest.net and see what the results are if there fine then you no for fact somthing in your configuration is incorrect, or even the torrent may not require ur bandwidth.....could be anything rly, run that test least ull no it isnt your connection

agreed torrents could be well seeded and you might not need to upload anything happened a few times to me makes it hard to keep a ratio

darthlinux setup an rss to your favourite site soon as it becomes available (linux iso's ;) ) your upload should shoot up

or create a random torrent with some null data and post the torrent here

It only happened a few times so my ratio is ok
