Bitcomet is a torrent client so nothing will speed it up except for the number of people who have the file available for uploading. I have gotten anywhere from 1-3kb like you to over 125kb, depends.

Note sure how you tested the speed, but you should first use a connection speed test program (many out there, for example http://reviews.cnet.com/7004-7254_7-0.html). Your BB provider may also have a test program. \n\nIf it looks like the speed is still slow afer testing, there is little you can do on your computer (download accelerators do not help w/ large files, just web pages), and you need to call your BB provider to see if the line to your house might be noise (in which case they will automatically throttle the speed), or you are too far away from the CO (which limits the maximum speed of your connection)

You are limited by your modem and the bandwidth available from your ISP (AOL, time warner, etc). The PC's actual speed doesn't really affect your internet connection speed.\nIf it is a recent slowdown, you can try contacting your ISP and let them know. If it has always been this slow, then you are probably stuck with this connection speed.\nI would recommend upgrading to cable or DSL.

It depends on our internet connection. If the speed would slow then download will become slow. U can use the following software to download\n\n1. Download Manager\n2. Download Accelerator\n3. Free Download Manager

I use bitcomet all the time - my favourite download sites are:\n\nhttp://www.isohunt.com\nhttp://www.mininova.com\n\nSearch for what you want.  Make sure the download you choose has lots of seeders - it will be faster.  When it has finished downloading, check in the bitcomet programme files and find the downloads folder.  Sit back and watch!\n\nIt's very simple, and bitcomet was a good choice - enjoy!\n\nTorrents are the files that you are downloading - in the simplest terms.  Don't worry about it so much, it isn't that complicated - just download what you want and then play it.

I suggest you use utorrent ,as far as I am concerned its the faster torrent downloader available...( I have a 256kbs line and i download at about 25kb/s averege)....however to get a good torrent speed go for a torrent with a lot of seeds..

Most likely, you're on the very edge of the DSL service area, too far from the phone company's local DSL base station to get good speeds.  I'm guessing that you've called the DSL company about the problem aready.  If DSL coverage isn't good in your neighborhood, try your Cable TV company, they probably sell high speed, and it'll have less distance limits.

LOL!!!\n\n1Gb/s broadband!!!\n\nYou are out of your mind, that does not exist for home usage, maybe for IBM offices...\n\nWhat country are you in? That determines what companys you want to look at!\n\nI think you meant 1mb/s... correct me if i am wrong.\n\n\nEDIT:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::\n\nPlease watch out for this:\n\nUNLIMITED DOWNLOAD, in the small print - they usualy put "Subject to Fair usage Policy" Therfore it is not unlimited and you can be kicked off the service or limited to say 15kbps upload and 30kbps download if u try to use a lot of bandwidth.\n\nI download a fair bit but the BT package with 40gb is more than enough (i live in the uk).

torrents would have been my best answer. it doesnt slow me down\n\nNOTE: if you are using a router maybe you should do port forwarding so its not so slow

There is nothing that can actually boost your speed, except going to a faster connection. Software claiming to speed up the web really just caches the information and compresses what it can into smaller files. The result can be pictures that are less quality. Also, it won't speed up files that are already compressed, like mp3s. It won't really speed up downloading program files either. They mainly just give the appearance of web pages loading faster.\n\nNote: download accelerators work by trying to make several connections downloading portions of the file at once. Trouble is, you're still limited by your connection speed. If it makes 3 connections, each connection is 1/3 the original speed.

Well, this problem happened with a friend of mines before where the DSL was slow due to pile of useless appliations that occupy and use a portion of your DSL Speed...\n\nTry removing useless applications and install a good Antivirus/Antispyware to assure that there is Keyloggers, etc that send private data over the internet..\n\nI personally recommend installing AVAST Antivirus HOME Edition (FREE for Personal Use) which comes eith a lot of handy tools...award winning Antivirus for 2005\n\nCheck out all of its features on the link below:\nhttp://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html\n\nPS: Its less than 10 MB in size and does a frequent update...\n\nHope this solves your problem...

http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=3912  And you connection will never be 100 Mbps.  This is the connection speed on your internal LAN.  Internet speeds are usually around 1.5 Mbps for DSL and 5 Mbps for cable, and you will still never hit these speeds with torrents.  You should be happy with average speeds of 100 Kbps.

Use uTorrent instead of Bittorrent and make sure the health of the torrent is good. I mean there should be a good number of seeders and peers... and also limit the download and upload to unlimited (default value will be '0').

1 MB, 2 MB, 8 MB etc.. speeds are not big deal for now since most applications on the internet ran smoothly even with speeds less than 1 MB.. Unless if .you are browsing on a graphic/flash-heavily  intensive site. but that's just less than .01% of all sites in the internet.. Also if you are downloading large files downlink speed is important.. If you are uploading files uplink speed is important.. but you have to check your provider on these..  But for me this is not too important considering with the competition most providers provide faster speeds.\n\nWith that said, what I can suggest is you choose a provider that has a good tracking record with 99.99% uptime, with consistent speed and above all 24 hour technical PHONE support..\n\nThere are other criteria but for me those above are my priority\n\nGoodluck!

Nope. It's either just that big, or you don't have enough peers to share with. Hopefully, you made sure your torrent had enough seeders and leechers before you chose it. The only way to "speed it up" at all is if you have the Azureus client where you have the kick/ban feature to ban other leechers who are NOT helping YOUR download. \nIf you're downloading a game, then you have to realize that it's REALLY big. Otherwise, your comp is just slow or you're doing too much on your comp concurrently with your download.

You have a pretty gud rate as it is!!\n\nanyways, you can use an accelerator like DAP i.e. Download Accelerator Plus, which u can download for free from download.com. Note, that this may not accelerate from all sites as some sites restrict multiple connections which these softwares rely on

Download Accelerator is the best software i think. u can resume ur download with this. \nhttp://www.speedbit.com/\ngo to this web & download it...  hope u'll like it.
