Why is this one downloading so slow?

Downloading a movie hosted on another Torrent site.

Look at all those 100% seeders but I am only getting 24.8 kB/S download speed.

Usually when there are so many seeders, 100% or not 100%, a download will be done in minutes.

I got a 21 GB file yesterday from that same site, also with a ton of 100% seeders, in under 45 minutes

Did all those seeders went into their torrent program setting and set their MAX DL speed to ZERO or NEAR ZERO?

If they are going to do that and not SEED, they might as well not  turn their Torrent program on and join the swarm.

No need.....  to get your undies in a twist  :D

Try the basics,  one step at a time..

  • relax :)
  • restart modem & router  (simply turn OFF, then ON)
  • force recheck in client

    my 2 cents.. fwiw

    I didn't restart anything and didn't recheck anything before I started this torrent:

    https://torrentgalaxy.to/torrent/13792791/Celebrity-Masterchef-S14E01-720p-HDTV-x264-QPEL-TGx-

    and got it in 5 minutes.

    Then I also started another one from the same site I got the one that is not downloading, 2.06 GB, got it done in 11 minutes.

    So those seeders on that file are putting a limit on their download speed.

    Aside from providing a link,  so somebody else can try it..  

    I guess waiting is the only option.

    slow inet speeds?

    tons of other downloads?

    A link to said torrent would certainly help, if only to rule out a problem on your end. :)

    You can pm it if you wish.

    :o)

    Assuming for a minute that this was correct - so what ?
    Anyone seeding anything is perfectly entitled to impose limits on their speeds.
    I suggest you remember that not everyone in this world is on unlimited high speed internet.
