Usually ISPs will mark low priority for torrent packets, turning encryption on usually disables packets detection. If the ports were blocked on ISP end, you will not see any traffic (d/l or u/l) in your client but since you say that the speed is low, it can be ToS. Also, check the tracker list in your client and see if most are working. AFAIK tpb and some major trackers have changed their announce urls so some old torrents might become too slow. > -- > Best regards, > arjuna > _______________________________________________ > Ilugd mailing list > [email protected] > http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd > -- -- Ankit Chaturvedi GPG: 05DE FDC5 468B 7D9F 9F45 72F1 F7B9 9E16 ECA2 CC23 <http://www.google.com/profiles/ankit.chaturvedi> _______________________________________________ Ilugd mailing list [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
