[QUOTE="overgrowntroll, post: 706096, member: 43149"] On my pc i am using utorrent 1.6. I have opened the correct ports using portforward.com and the status is 'ok' and i get really fast speeds of upto 800kbs. I can sometimes download films in 20 minutes!!! On my mac i am using Vuze, formerly known as Azureus 3.1.1.0. Interestingly, on the Azurues official website, the latest version is 3.1.0.0. [url]http://www.azureus.com/[/url] BUT, on the Vuze official website, the latest version is 3.1.1.0, my current one. [url]http://www.vuze.com/app[/url] If i am lucky, i will get a MAX of 30kbs on a torrent and will have to wait days, sometimes even weeks to complete a download! My internet browsing is fast, just not the torrents. I have tried using several other clients like transmission and bittorrent, but i prefer Azureus. Can someone please tell me WHAT PORTS i need to forward for Azureus to get decent speeds? If someone knows of a site to help or knows themselves that would be great!!! It really is ridiculous, I cant find anything on the net to help me, and i cant find a detailed guide on how to create a static ip on my mac with 10.5 Leopard!! [/QUOTE]
