Re: How to defeat the throttle
said by davey6693  :Under "Connection": use 1723 tcp listen port, 50 udp listen port (make sure you forward port 50 on your router, it was not forwarded by default on mine, but 1723 was). If you do make a router change, reset the router and your modem to push the changes through. On "transport encrytion": Turn on encrypted transport, using RC4 encryption and only enable the "allow" checkbox for outgoing connections. Yeah!!!
I just did this with my Vuze/router (although not on a Mac) ...either way, it worked. I went from 30 KB/s per direction up to at least 300. Wonderful. |

That doc use to work for high bandwidth users It did and still does, with one additional bit of finesse when you get re-throttled. The answer is in my previous post. Works every time. |

That doc use to work for high bandwidth users and so did the other thing I posted about. For some reason, it doesnt seem to be working as i'm on it right now. [its in my signature]
The low bandwith users don't seem to be recapped as I has tried it on my cousin's line and its fine. |

When re-throttled, just renew downloaded copy of the p.v. doc and read it. Your answer is there and I would point you to the necessary part, but no time since I gotta go eat my dinner. Yum - French Canadian pea soup! |

Re: How to defeat the throttle
The instructions in the technical brief on the pervice website worked for me. (»pervices.com/index.php)
I was getting 50KB/s speeds. After making the changes, my download speeds went up to 100KB/s + which is still crap but better than it was before.
I opened up port 1723 and configured all the others suggested in the doc. |

scratch that last bit - it is being monitored, but the 1st bit remains the same from previous |

holy s*** monkeys! Guys, use ultra vpn as previously stated. My speeds are not monitored because I opened up to the matrix (uhh...) open source vpn

It seems that this method no longer works unless your okay with 30KB/s speeds. Was fine 2 months ago... but not no more  i would use a sharing program had it not been the fastest way to mask a virus (no hash verification for original files) |

loa, I've got this going on Vuze on a Mac.
Under "Connection":
use 1723 tcp listen port, 50 udp listen port (make sure you forward port 50 on your router, it was not forwarded by default on mine, but 1723 was). If you do make a router change, reset the router and your modem to push the changes through.
On "transport encrytion": Turn on encrypted transport, using RC4 encryption and only enable the "allow" checkbox for outgoing connections.
28 kbps before, now it is topping out at 320 kbps!! Nice work guys, thanks a millon. And FU Bell - I'm not paying 50 a month for an "always fast" service that isn't always fast. |

Well 60kb/s is better than that crap before. I'm getting about 145kb/s download which is pretty good IMO. |

Try using ultravpn it is free. It should work and it's easy to use. Not sure if works for vista or windows 7. I have tried it with xp and it works great.

Well, 16:30 arrived and my p2p speeds dropped to 60kb/s.
I got 6 very well and very large torrents running: spent the day at maximum connection speed...
If anyone has any advice, I sure would like to hear it!

Thanks Crimsondarkn, I'll give port 500 a try tonight, but I'm pretty sure I tried it yesterday night.

I've also tried the method and still being capped. Anyone else have luck? Did they make any changes to cap this issue or something? |

Hello,
First post here (long time lurker though).
Sorry to revive this oldish thread, but you guys are the only resource I can trust on this issue.
I followed the pdf's instructions to the letter on uTorrent (for Mac, but all the prefs are there), but I can't manage to bypass the throttle. Port is 1723 (tried the others from the pdf too), no randomization, restarted the modem and got a new address, no DHT.
No joy... still at around 28KB/s.
Has anything changed since May the 16th?
Thx,
Loa |

So they are just throttling torrents down right, as my other sharing programs don't seem to have any problems with it. |
