Football Manager Torrent


[link to this post]
 
Hi guys

I wonder if anyone could have a go at downloading this torrent?? I`m trying to but getting awful speeds. Wondering if its just Plusnets throttling or just not enough seeds or whatever. Cheers.

And its the Strawberry PC Torrent I`m trying to get.

I'm on IDNET rather than PlusNet, and after 2 minutes the torrent download speed was 230 kB/s, using utorrent with encryption enabled. I'm going to stop it now as I don't actually want the download

Well the most I can get is 29 seeds and 12Kb per second so either I`m doing something wrong, or my speed is just [censored]!

It's very likely to be plusnet's throttling. On Sky LLU I get 4-500kB/sec straight away. Try changing gateways, you are likely to be on a more loaded one than others.

"I`m trying to but getting awful speeds."

From my experience with p2p on PN, you'd be best contacting someone with a copy and having them snail mail it to you. It'll be quicker.

326 kB/s using uTorrent within 1 min of starting. PN are not my ISP therefore it is likely to be their throttling, your exchange or something else.
