Low Download Speeds
Hi guys, i recently changed my BSNL broadband plan (20 days ago, 28th june) from BBG 600 to BBG 500 which has 1.5GB limit & night 2-8 unlimited. I tend to get only 50-55 KBps maximum download speed if i download with utorrent(2.0.2) even with good amount of seeders, as well as with DAP(9.4). This was not happening before my plan change, eventhough i had varying speeds. I use to get around 128 to 150 KBps but not now. I have optimised my system settings such as increasing the number of half open connections(using patches) or setting MTU using TCP optimiser. I have also set the QOS reserve bandwidth to 1%. I have also forwarded the port for utorrent and have correct upload settings (using azureus online upload calculator). I scanned my system using Norton 2010 & Hijackthis. But no reports. I tried using OpenDNS servers for 7 days, but no use. My connection still doesn't get above 55 KBps.. why is it so..? My home is located 13 km from main office and a local exchange is 3 km away. Should i contact my local exchange about this problem.? I have a pentium 4 3 ghz system with 256MB ram, 80 GB HDD & gigabyte 915 series board.. My router is Teracom Type 1..
