  1. I have a boxed DVD import version of MW2 unopened (Just bought 5 for the office), What are the windows 7 circumstances (OEM, Family license etc...)
    Benji, e-mail me at:

    //e-mail removed as per forum rules// and we can discuss this there.

  2. I have an extra legit serial 100% activating of Windows 7. I would love to get two games for that serial: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (Legit Serial) and L4D2 (Legit Serial). I want both games to be legitimate and having an activating serial in Steam. I don't want boxes, just serials.

    Even if you have only one of the two games, I can see. If you're interested post here and I will PM you my mobile number and we can discuss on how to finalize the deal.

  3. In my experience the biggest single thing that you can do to speed up your torrents (in Vuze anyway) is to let it take control of your bandwidth using Auto-speed feature - remember that good d/l speeds are dependent upon you offering good u/l ones. I was getting 360 kB/s this morning whilst the average swarm speed was only around 45 (True BKK suburbs). If average swarm speeds are low anyway there's not much you can do, but even getting 20kB/s is great if the average swarm speed is only 5.

    The algorithms used to determine who gets what speed are complicated - I'd recommend reading the Good Settings guide and start tweaking (the great thing about Auto-speed is that it does most of the tweaking for you dynamically).

    Thanks for the insight. I'll give it a try.
  4. Just wondering what you constantly need to download at 80-90 k/s on a torrent. Maybe you have reached a true limit and have downloaded too much for that month.

    I don't recall any part of my contract with True that stipluates how much I'm allowed to download.

    Cheers

    Exactly.
  5. Come on, dude. Don't give me those childish answers... I've been a user for 5 years now and all of a sudden just a month ago I start having the problem which occurs only during weekends and peak hours during week days. During the mornings on week days, the download speed is fine.

    Childish questions getting childish answers. You also ignored what you don't want to see/read.

    The truth is that things are changing. That also applies (unfortunate) to the ISP's! Traffic shaping is in place and used by several ISP's. No wonder if there users running an Internet Cafe on public account or those who done nothing but downloading day and night and so on!

    Cheers.

    It is obvious that you are a True fan-boy, but you're certainly a very knowledgeable fellow. I learned lots of new things from your responses and appreciate them, sorry for calling them childish answers. I apologize and would like to thank you for your replies. :o

    I'm not a fan-boy from anything. I just want things working without hassle everytime a need to change something.

    Unfortunate TRUE is the best connection I can get here and I tested a few already. If there is something better, I'll change directly but it isn't yet!

    On the other hand many of the connection sucking and that maybe not only because of the ISP but abut the physical line system as well.

    Cheers.

    I completely agree. Before this problem occurred, I was exactly like you since I never had a problem with True before. I never thought any other ISP could be better than True, but when this problem occurred and continued to last for a long time, so I decided it was time to move on. But before moving on, I wanted to exchange opinions with a few hardcore users here which I have done and appreciate the replies.

    Cheers!

  8. What are you trying to say? I've been using it for a long time and always got speeds of 80-90 kb/s which is the highest a 1 mbps connection can give, but now whatever I download I can't get even near that speed and it's not because there are few seeders or something. I'm getting nowhere near my maximum speeds.

    I don't think True are throttling P2P file-sharing (AKA Traffic Shaping) so the cause to my problem is that True have probably over-expanded and now they don't have enough bandwidth for all the users.

  9. The number of seeders/leechers don't have a relation to this as I'm on a private tracker with lots of seeders who have seedboxes, but I still my download speed doesn't get more than 10-20 kb/s, while before I used to get 80-90 kb/s so there has to be a problem with True. I called them up and they told me that they don't guarantee international download speeds, they only guarantee local which is bloody disgusting.

  10. Wow! Those are awesome speeds.

    I've contacted Maxnet since a week now, and they've not replied me yet whether they have the service available in my area or not. I'm really sick of True though. Worst ISP ever! Is anyone else planning to switch from True to another ISP?

  11. Is anyone else experiencing painfully slow BitTorrent download speeds in True from the past month? It's been a month or so and I've been getting terrible speeds. The internet works fine most of the time, but sometimes it is painfully slow along with the BT download speeds. I've noticed the BT speeds have become really slow on the weekend that I hardly even get 10 kb/s. I'm on a 1 mpbs line and before this, I used to get 80-90 kb/s all the time until recently.

    Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I'm so sick of it that I've decided to switch to Maxnet since they've got the new promotion of 2 mbps for 590 Baht. Anyone else in Bangkok using Maxnet? How are the BT download speeds?

    Thanks in advance.
