Very Slow Download Speeds from Apple Applications (Safari and Mac. Browsing speeds are still very fast. Only download speeds are slow. My internet speed. Hi I am using a MAC and runnig OS X 10.5.6, and uTorrent version 0.9.1.1. My brothers laptop (regular IBM), seems to work fine. He gets the max speeds that we should be getting. On my computer, I get super slow downloads of max 10kb total, but uploads seem ok, going at 50kb when speed restriction is removed. I will have about 4 torrents downloading, and each will be going at 1.2,1.3kb max.even sometimes it says downloading at.5kb and varying upto about 1.3kbs at the bottom, none of the torrents are showing any activity. Oddly enough, randomly (which is very rarely) i can get a good download speed of 200kbs on a torrent, and it will download right away. We are using the linksys WAG54GS, and my brother has updated all the firmware and done the tweaking necessary to get around the throttling of the lines by our ISP (Bell). But my laptop (OS X) just doesn't seem to give me good download speeds. I even installed uTorrent on my windows XP, while running integrated dual boot on Windows Parallels, and still the same slow, download speeds. I can download perfectly fine on my firefox an IE. But not torrents. Could it be some settings in OSX, or on my uTorrent?? I also notice that the light (bottom of the screen) is either yellow or red. Any information would help.
