Why are my torrents taking forever to download? I get an average of around 20 kB/s on them... they have over a hundred seeders, so I don't understand why it's so low T_T
(also, it isn't the darkfall torrent, incase anyone one was wondering...)

Try forwarding the port you use?

What does that mean? How do I do that? Did I mention I'm computer retarded?

Ok, I checked, and apparently, the port isn't opened (I hit the thing that said "Test if port is forwarded properly"... how do I open it so it works?

538.7 kB/s here... It was at 180 kB/s for two hours, then jumped above 400 kB/s, and now lies stable at the mentioned speed :)

I posted this yesterday being a little more specific on the torrent that was slow. I ended up getting happy points :D just don't mention what torrent is slow you will be fine....
Course my "happy points" were because somebody made a post about somebody closing threads and I talked about somebody's penis size :lmao:.... oh well
BTW my "torrents" are now at 350kb/s so its all good.

Well if your ports are open then you must just relax and wait for people to connect with you. sucks huh?

Go on www.portforward.com, should help you nicely.

They aren't open. I need to know how to open them @_@ I tried the PortForward guide for my router, but it still says it isn't open.
