I use utorrent, no port forwarding or anything, and get 200 plus with ptcl 2mb.

There must be some settings messed up, have u use the speed guide and set ur seed/leech ratio?

Agreed. Uninstall utorrent, delete the utorrent application data, reinstall, select the default settings for your internet connection in utorrent settings.

Try it.

i guess there is something else going on here... was getting a good 50ish down speed on torrents on a 512 PTCL student package... but for some reason.. the speed has dropped down to 5-10ish today.. and my friend is having the same problem (i live in cantt, he is in model town)

anyone else facing the same issue? i was about to download GTA 4

and i have port forwarded, bla bla.. it was all good just till today!!

I have ptcl 1mb and I am facing the same problem
even on normal downloads speed remains between 20-40kb
no splitter installed and no noise the phone line
