Having trouble with your BSNL Dataone Broadband and torrents? Hope this complete tutorial would soleve all your toubles and push your torrent download to maximum limit. The reason for slow download is that your port forwarding is not properly configured. As a result your IP is not visible to outside peers. To verify this start downloading a torrent with very good seeds & peers. Now go to peers of torrent and see under “Initiation”. If you have both ‘Local’ & ‘Remote’, then dont bother this tutorial anymore. Else if you are getting only ‘Local’, continue reading. I am using Bitcomet here coz its fast and doesnt use much of CPU. You could also use other torrent software like Azureus, Utorrent etc. You will have similar options under their settings.
Step 1: Know your IP
===============
1. Even though your IP address is dynamic, the ADSL router would always assign an IP address to your computer. Most probably it would be 192.168.1.2.
2. Go to Start>Run>cmd or in Vista, type cmd in search and press enter.
3. Type ‘ipconfig’ and press enter
4. Note the IP address of your computer, here for me it 192.168.1.2
Step 2: Configure the torrent
====================
1. First we need to decide how much to upload. For a 2mbps connection, I keep upload rate as 20KBps. If you are using lower connection like Airtel or Tata Indicomm of 128kbps, keep upload as 8KBps and for 256, 14-16KBps would do. Keep the download rate ‘No Limit/ 0′. Do this under Options>Preferences>Connection
2. At the same place, set your port number to somewhere between 40000 and 65000.
3. Next go to Options>Preferences>Advanced>Connection and uncheck “Enable UPnP port mapping”
