Wrt160nl download speed after utorrent drops

Very often after I use utorrent. Or someone else uses it in the house. The connection stays lower then normal.
So before it is 17 MB then the download is finished and it stays at 10 MB and doesn't come up anymore. Why is that?

As you have tried all the settings on your Router, that you have re-flashed the firmware on your Router and resetted your Router and re-configured all the settings on your Router and still the same problem is going on.
Have you tried using a Different uTorrent software and check if you are facing the same problem with it?

Slow BB download speed after 16:30. Works fine in ...

I'm at wits end with BT and the service I receive. I only wish I could choose to pay a 10th of the price for the service I receive. I have tried to use the BT call centre with no avail. The words “chasing ones tail” spring to mind. Hence adding my troubles to the already growing forum.
As the performance is there during the day, this doesn’t sound like a hardware problem, but something that BT is doing on their side when the demand gets high. I can fully understand a drop in download speed, but I think a 10th of the speed is over the top.
Please can someone help??
My Problem:
After 16:30 the BB service starts to move at dial-up speeds, but will work fine again after 02:00 am... Yes I am that sad that I have tried to work at that time.
I have run the BT speedtest and speedtest.net a number of times during the day to try to see what is happening:
I have also tried using the BT HH2 and my preferred router, a Netgear DGND3300. Here are some of the stats:

Slow download speeds and/or dropped internet connectivity

Recently, my fios internet connection will be intermittently slow or simply drop altogether on all my devices. The verizon speed test also shows that my download speeds are less than 1mb/sec whereas upload speeds are up to 15 mb/s. My service plan is 25/25. I have been using the service with no issues for the past 4 months. This seems to have come up out of the blue in the past few days. Resetting the router has no effect. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? This is in Philadelphia. I tried to call support, but had to give up after being on hold for 55 minutes. Going to try again tomorrow.

Sorry I haven't been able to update with more info sooner. I am conncted with wifi. The location of my laptop with respect to the router has not changed at any time during the duration of these issues. Since monday when I originally posted, the following happened: On Tuesday the problem appeared to have been resolved as I was getting 29.5 down and 20 up at 7:00 EST. I tested again at 10:30 EST and was getting 17 down and 19 up so everything seemed good. Last night, however, the issue popped up again. I was not able to test until about 10:30 but at that time I was once again consistently getting less than 1 mb down and 5-10 up. Ironically, the download speeds were so poor I was not even able to log in to these forums to post without the webpage timing out. Tonight, I was having issues earlier (download speeds ~1-2 mb) but not I am once again getting ~30 down based on the verizon speedtest. I have not tried changing the channel of my wireless, could the interference from another wifi cause issues like this? IT is set to automatic right now though.

Awful download speeds after upgrade to OS X Lion

Good evening all Mac-users!
I have searched the forum for an answer but as far as I can see the only problem that's in common with mine occurs on iPad's. However, I have a MacBook that I recently upgraded to Mac OS X Lion, everything works fine except one thing, the download speeds.
After the installation of Lion my download speeds (from everything, torrents, ipsw's, music etc) is around 1/50 of it's original speed. It's not the network cause other computers that's connected to the same network works without problem.
What could it be? Does Lion have a firewall or something that block the downloads?
Thank you in advance everyone!

Sorry about that. I misunderstood the notation "~/Library" to mean the Library at the root of the hard drive. There is indeed an iWeb Domain in "Users/Trixi/Library/Application Support/iWeb". The iWeb Domain appears to be intact being 175MB. It shows a status of Last Opened/Modified: Today @ 10:47 which is when all this started.
However, nothing else had changed from my original post - iWeb did not function. All its menu choices were greyed out. When I selected "Hide Others" all open windows disappeared and iWeb was active but with no window at all.
As you pointed out, I was misreading folder locations. So, while writing this reply, I thought I'd double check another action I'd tried. It was posted by kt4ever under "iWeb and Lion problems" here:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3233238
and - it worked! My Domain is back, just as I'd left it. I only performed the following subset though:
Go to Users/home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWeb.plist and drag file to trash.
Also delete com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile.
Empty trash.
Open iweb.

Download speed after mountain lion

Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my internet download speed has decreased ~80%. The speed to my router is over 10MB (and that's what I was at prior to Mountain Lion), but now it's less than 3MB on my MacBook Pro, which I connect to wirelessly.
What new processes and settings need to be adjusted to get me back to the speed I'm paying for?

If possible, connect to your router with an Ethernet cable and turn off Wi-Fi. Test.

Very slow downloading speeds on uTorrent

I just bought the new MacBook Pro Retina 15-inch late 2013 model, and I can't seem to get anything past 5kb/s. What's weird is my older Mac has the same preferences in uTorrent and it actually downloads fast, while this one seems stuck and I can't think of a reason.

Hi Bro!
Pathetic service been provided, can't be exchange problems as people suffer same issue all over, it has to be something that BT are doing quite possibly against T&C's we all agreed

E1200 router: very slow download speeds, ok uploady got

I recently set up a new E1200 router to replace my old one. We are having problems with very slow download speeds (often <0.10 Mbps) even while the upload speeds are OK (8-10 Mbps). Our previous download speed over wifi was 10-15 Mbps.
When I first set it up, the download speed was very poor on the initial computer. After fooling around, it was fine. I don't know what I did that made it speed up. However, my wife's computer has had very poor download speeds. After rebooting my computer, the download speed has also dropped bak to <0.10. I was able to stream Hulu on my Wii just fine an hour ago.
What could the problem be?

So we could have this isolated, check how much speed you’re getting straight to the modem so we’ll have some point of comparison that from your internet provider. If through the router, you have struggles with not getting an acceptable value for download speed especially if it only happens with the wireless connection, you can try these: change the wireless channel and the wireless security on the router. If on the router, you have the channel set to auto by default change it to (3,6,9,11), just have to play around with it. Moreover, for the wireless security, select WPA2 Personal. If that doesn’t make any difference, update the firmware of the router, reset and have it reconfigured.

Q180 Slow Download Speeds

Just got my Q180 setup last night. It is connected to my Wireless N network. Noticed that while watching YouTube videos is was running out of buffer frequently. Decided to run a speed test on www.speedtest.net. Results show .65mb down speed and 6.5 mb up speed. My service should be 20mb down and 10mb up. So the up speed seems accurate, but the download speed is TERRIBLE, it's running at about 2% what it should be. I ran the same speed test using my laptop, from the same location and achieved 18mbps down and 6.5 up.
Is this a limitation of the Q180, or is there something wrong or a setting that I have to set to fix this issue? Honestly this thing is pretty much useless to me without a better download speed, after all, just about the only reason I got this was to do internet stuff on my livingroom TV.
Thanks,
Josh

Unfortunately, I still have the same problem with this computer. I get very slow wireless connection speeds. I've tried 3 different wireless routers. I've moved it around. I've updated the wireless driver. Still get an average of 1-2mbps download speed and .5mbps upload speed on a 20down/10up connection. Each time I think the problem is resovled, the next time I use the computer, it's back again. The thing is pretty useless. I've never been able to turn it on and just go watch a video on YouTube on my TV, which was more or less the only reason I bought this thing, so it was a waste of money. And no help comes from the forums apparently either.

Exceedingly slow download speeds on brand new mbp os lion

Hi,
There seems to be a lot of posted issues with slow download speeds on the MBP. I purchased mine 2 weeks ago (Oct 2011), a 13" core i7. My download speeds are a tiny fraction of what I get with a 10 year old Dell. Reading the posts on this issue, they all seem to be going in circles. I am technically very savvy although new to apple. I did at one point get an acceptable increase in download speeds after manually entering the gateway, subnet and DNS. However two days later download speeds have reduced from 17.8 MB/s to 37kb/s. The right now the Dell is screaming a 702MB download. The MBP slug is telling me it will take 5 hours.
Has anyone ever resolved his issue?

So as mentioned above I tried connecting to the router using a wire instead of wireless..
many sites work fine....but some do not
Example
works fine
Apple.com
gmail.com
does not work fine...the page does not load up and gets stuck in the very beginning....
www.CNN.com
http://www.sportsauthority.com/home/index.jsp
sportauthority has flash embedded on that page....CNN, I do not know...
could it have anything to do with Flash ?

Significant reduction in ADSL download speed

I have been using BT ADSL since August 2012 with a Homehub 3. My usual download speed is 6.7 Mbps.
In the last week I have been experiencing slower than normal Internet access response times. When I checked my download speed it has dropped to 1.9 Mbps.
I have carried out a BT speed test - it shows line speed at 8.1 Mbps, and suggests a router restart. I have tried this but no improvement.
I have also checked my Homehub router firmware and notice it is not at the current level. Can anyone suggest what I should do to resolve these issues.

Opening second tab, no address causes download speed to drop from 160 kbs to less than 5 kbs and sits there doing nothing, does not happen with IE, why is this

after firefox updated from 27 to 28, when i download a file, play music, watch a video, or run a speed test, normal speed is about 160 kb/s (dsl connection 1.3 Mb/s) - just opening another blank tab (not any address) or try to open another page like google search page, download speed drops to less than 5 kb/s - downloading stops, and second page does not open, why is this happening, it does not happen with internet explorer and the version of IE i have is out of date,
history/cookies all clear automatically when close, i have disabled all add on, run malware, adware searches - show no problem, norton antivirus is up to date, i have spent hours on phone with ATT isp and connection is showing no problem - if i run a speed test it shows good, if i try to run a speed test and open second tab - speed fails and speed test will not even finish, ATT suggested I try the same thing in IE and there is no problem - so it appears to be an issue with Firefox 28

What is the CPU load when this slowdown happens?
Are you using a specific driver in Windows to mange the internet connection that might not get enough processor time to run properly?
It is also possible that other (security) isn't able to do its work and takes additional CPU time.
Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
*http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-start-windows-in-safe-mode/
You can try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem if starting Firefox in Safe Mode didn't help.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

Wireless Router Dropping download speeds

I have a WRT310N router. Ever since upgrading to Snow Leopard, my wireless download speeds decrease the further I get away from the machine. While my signal indicator is full strength, my speed drops from 16mbps download to just around 1-2mbps. I've upgraded to the latest firmware, turned off any potentially conflicting wireless devices (baby monitor, Wii, etc) and nothing seems to effect. Interestingly, my upload speeds remain uneffected.
Any ideas?

Did you reset the router after upgrading the router's firmware..If not then,reset the router and reconfigure it from the scratch.

Infinity Download Speed 3.6 Mb/s after 4 weeks :-(

I 'upgraded' from BT standard broadband (4.9 Mb/s download) to BT Infinity 4 weeks ago. The peak speed I've had when first installed was 7 Mb down/ 1Mb up - I was quoted 19.4 Mb /2Mb. Engineer showed line synch speed of around 20 Mb, saying speed should increase during training period. Speed dropped to about 5 Mb after first day or so.
After various long calls to call centre and lots of **bleep** like 'you'll get very good 30/6 Mb speeds after the 10 period... Engineer is working on it ....yes this is a real speed estimate for your line'. That was when the phone line to the call centre actually worked and they could here me. After phoning cancellations and recording my complaints they booked an engineer for last Friday morning - all this took about 45 minutes on the phone. Engineer failed to call or turn up - I called them, they asked if I could remain at home for the afternoon - an engineer may call. I said I'd only wait if they actually sent an engineer. At 3.10pm the OpenReach control centre (Welsh accent) said an engineer would be with me in 30 minutes..... they never turned up.
I got more outright lies about the engineer visiting the exchange instead of me, had found a fault & had ordered a new switch. It was confirmed by engineer that finally turned up on Monday that what I was told was rubbish - no engineer had been to exchange and the fault had not yet been diagnosed.
Engineer on Monday tested line synch, gets 16 Mb but could not get better than 5 Mb download on his laptop nor my PC. He went to cabinet(about 3/4 mile away from property and 10 yards from exchange ) checked stuff there. He claims controller said my profile was set correctly (24/2) and wouldn't reset it. He came back here (to my surprise) and replaced all of DSL modem, cables, power supplies & Home Hub 3. I now get consistently 3.6 Mb/s download after 5 days with new kit (engineer claimed that replacing modem & hub would trigger a profile reset ??). The engineer did say he 'wasn't technical' when I asked why the ping was so slow (45 mS) ....
I'm checking on speedtest.net and others. BT Wholesale speedtest Beta gives 7/0.78 (ping 266 mS !!!) but I've also tried large file downloads (Microsoft) & get about 288 kB/s.
BT have phoned 3 evenings this week to ask how my speed is but there's no improvement nor none in sight.
Should I just cancel my contract? Would cancellation charges be waived since they have failed to provide the service?
Do I need to get a moderator here to get a profile reset?
Would changing ISP probably resolve this issue?
Thanks
Jon.

Big drop in download speeds

Hi and help me please.
Two days ago the broadband became so slow is was impossible to even load an Internet page.
I rang the bt help desk yesterday and after replacing an adsl filter and moving the hub to the main phone line in I seemed to have my usual connection back.
I have come to use the Internet again today and the speeds have dropped massively again. And is becoming very intermittent with its speeds mostly being under .5mb/s.
ranging from .019 to 17.8mb/s download speeds, the upload speeds have been fairly constant at 0.8 - 0.95mb/s
