1fast1 Supersonic January 6, 2011 Share January 6, 2011 (edited) Hi, Does anyone know if Singnet, M1 or Starhub restrict Bit Torrent download speed now? The last time I used Starhub and the download speed was really bad. Tried Singnet, quite good. M1??? Cheers Did you try the following 3 basic precautions? 1) Choose an uncommon high-numbered port as the "listening port" (and forward the same on your router), or randomise your port with every startup. 2) Enable (or force) encryption to mask your torrent packets as "normal" web traffic. 3) Run a good peerblocker with updated anti-P2P (and other) lists. Those 3 countermeasures (carried out in addition to optimising your connection) should defeat most traffic-shaping measures (thereby improving your speeds) and provide some peace of mind (you're less likely to get a C & D letter).

Happily1986 5th Gear January 6, 2011 Share January 6, 2011 Suggest TS check out this thread which already listed some measures to overcome said problem. Might be good to read up else where as well. BT Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
