Hey guys,

Looking for some advice. Recently, I've noticed my downloads have significantly slowed down. I used to average around 200kb/s or higher, now its at 15-30kbs.

I'm rated at 10.x mbps at speedtest.net and have no problem playing nhl14 on ps3.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I'm using vuze as my client with the encryption enabled.

who are you with? I have Shaw. no issues.

50 mbit when the seeders allow. initially Shaw throttled me, but no more.

using µtorrent on PC and tTorrent Pro on my phone

I haven't noticed any ISP in Canada actively throttling P2P ever since unlimited usage became history except Rogers.

Check to see if the ports are somehow blocked. Worst case scenario, get a VPN with OpenVPN. Even with deep packet inspection, it's going to be hard to block.

Try this to see if bt is throttled. Glasnost: Test if your ISP is shaping your traffic (http://broadband.mpi-sws.org/transparency/bttest.php)
