Hi,

Ive been having problems getting my full upload speed via uTorrent and private tracker. I usually get it fine but not lately.

Ive went through all the options and something ive noticed is that when im at my m8s house on wireless, its perfect, when im at mine on wireless, its also perfect, but when im hard wired in its not as good.

Is there anything I should do LAN wize or for Windows 7 that could be causing the problem of not getting my perfect upload speeds?

Thanks,

Rowan

Im sorry how do I do that??? Is it in uTorrent or a setting on Windows?

Also, is there a TCP program that I can see if the port im using on uTorrent is being used by anything else conflicting??

Duplex settings are for the wired ethernet card (via the device properties) and matching on the router (which shouldbe default full duplex).

Yes they were on AUTO, so thats not the issue.

Do you know of a program people use that monitors the TCP to see if theres any conflicts on the port you use uTorrent with just to check?
