When running even one bittorrent download, I can do absolutely nothing else. I can't browse the internet, I cant play an online game, and I can't do anything else that would require an internet connection. It did not used to be this way, but for the last few weeks it has. I cant even open my browser while a download is going. Does anyone know why/what I can do to fix this?
I'm having similar problems, on blueyonder using azeurus. Wonder if it's the client, or maybe the ISP, but it seems to almost kill any other activity from the download PC that uses net access. Almost behaves as if you've lost the link.
try to configure azureus and limit your max upload speed to 80% from your connection max upload bandwith
reduce connection settings (50 per torrent 500 max connections)
when you use original bit torrent client you can only reduce your upload speed
aengus: I'm on Blueyonder and have no problems with running the original bit torrent client while surfing or whatever.. I can even play Continuum if I limit BT to one d/l at a time.
