OK, what port do people reckon is best for Bit Torrent action. ALL my downloads have started going incredibly slow and it's really starting to piss me off. It doesn't matter how many seeds there are I barely hit 30k now. |

it usually uses 6881... at least, that's what azureus uses by default.. but, 6881-6889 are commonly used. your ISP could be throttling those ports. |

I've already changed from 6881. I was fine up until about last week when suddenly all my torrents were going slow. I just thought they were bad torrents but it's not, even ones with 100's of seeds are going fucking slow. I've tried changing ports but to on avail. Horsefactory has recommended me a port and it seems to be a faster one so maybe BT aren't throttling that one. Fucking bastards. CAn't wait to move to Pipex. |

it's good for really large files, like movies, because it's theoretically supposed to get faster the more people are involved in the download... and, it spreads the bandwidth over each of the peers, so there's not one person hosting the file and getting their bandwidth slaughtered. |

how do I figure out if certain ports are slower than others? could I do some full port scan somehow? |

it's good downloading keyboard drivers, because it's theoretically supposed to get faster the more people are involved in the download... and, it spreads the bandwidth over each of the peers, so there's not one person hosting the file and getting their bandwidth slaughtered. |
