Outline · [ Standard ] · Linear+ dramatically drop of speed, very low UP|DL speed

[UkrainianWolf]

Hello guys I got this problem long time ago but didn't have time to ask you for solution. The problem is that my UP speed is very low I have maximum limit 10 kb\s and emule 1.1+ dives away only 1.6 kb\s , my dl speed is very low too , but probaly because I have some rare files on download list (no low ID or anything like this ) . My inet connection is Cable 5mbps , WIndows XP SP2 ( with unlimited TCP connection limit) all patches and updates, AMD 64 3000+, ... everything should be cool I guess , but it just doesn't work ... I got windows fire wall off , I have Sygate firewall installed but emule has access to internet without any restrictions .... only svccfg.exe and svchost.exe blocked from inter... Any suggestions about my problem ?

Did you check what are you real upload/download speeds?

dear admin , 5 mbps DL and 1 mbps is much MUCH faster then 1.6 kb\s I always had 10kb\s UP,
all tests showed different results, I did one test on USA server and it gave me 2004-11-14 19:22:54 EST: 295 / 495
Your download speed : 303033 bps, or 295 kbps.
A 36.9 KB/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed is much faster than down.. have you tweaked?
Your upload speed : 507794 bps, or 495 kbps.
another test on server which located in Toronto showed me
Loaded 225455 Bytes in 2.0530998706818 seconds
878.5Kbps is your thruput
my real speed for download from HTTP is around 650-700 kb\s

Does in your case it look like this?
http://emuleplus.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=6905

What are your settings for max connections and connections in 5 seconds?

[UkrainianWolf]

yes I guess my case like in this link , i set up 200 connections per 5 sec,

[Aw3]

Try also to reduce "connections per 5 sec" to 30-50 (you can even try 20).

it seems to be that my ISP is controling P2P traffic ... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,111...=9999~start=420 I have rogers cable , is there any way to go around it ??? Is there any way to make P2P traffic look like HTTP traffic ??? I guess a lot people got affected by this crap from ISP we just have to something about or emule will die slowly (((

I tried to chance max number of connection and i got 5 kb\s download and upload speed ... even worse than it was before ( changed back my settings)

Just a point you might be overlooking: a good source will only move to the next client in the queue after one of the current clients has completed a chunk. A poor source, on the other hand, one that is having connection problems etc. will run through its upload queue much faster as the connection attempts will fail faster. If you look at this from the downloader's point of view, you should expect to see a lot of crappy sources when you restart or when you first add a file to downloads. On my eMule it takes a couple of hours for the better sources to come along. Sometimes I'm lucky and a good one appears almost immediately; mostly I have to wait. Whenever you make a change in your settings, its a good idea to observe the behaviour for a few hours at least to get a better perspective of what the change has done for you.
