Improving uTorrent speeds?

[PP34]

I hope I'm allowed to do this as having a torrent program isn't actually illegal.

I was getting really good torrent speeds a few months ago and lately my speeds have slowed significantly. Averaging around 40-80 kB/s.


Here's my net speed:

I've tried using a few guides and so on but it seems to have made no difference. Any guides/suggestions or tips?

Is it with torrents from all trackers or a particular one? Also any time of day where the speed is different?

The standard things of turning your router/modem on and off, resetting your pc, re-installing torrenting software, trying a different client should all be checked as well.

Optus seems to have a fair bit of international congestion during peak times (according to Whirlpool)

You are gettin throttled.

Ring your isp several times complaining its really slow on web pages and speedtest and jump through their hoops.

eventually tell them if it doesnt improve you will cancel your contract due to their failure to uphold their end.

Play their little game and you will get it back eventually. Took me a month once.
