Your router configured? Sometimes it's due to router error or problem, not necessarily your settings.

Power cycle your modem and router and your computer.
It should fix the problem if you say everything was working fine last night.
Probably your modem / router / computer dns got locked up?

But can you achieve satisfactory download rates? If you PF already, no need DMZ cause DMZ allows everything through all ports. Bad.
u get green on the program can already. dont bother
I NEED HELP! I'm a newbie la~
I use utorrent 1.8.3 to download la~ then can download immediately after I add torrent... That was last time~ & download was real Fast~
Then weeks ago, I was recommended to upgrade to 1.8.4... But after I upgrade le, the download started to slow then now shows the infinity sign at ETA eventually~
Now I add any new torrent file to download, it does not even download at all... What happen ha?
Can any kind souls help out with this... Thanks~~~
Hey, just open your port.
http://www.portforward.com/
My highest speed is around 1.2MB/s
Average speed is around 300~600kB/s
I downloaded MapleSEA in 2 hours.
You can also look through YouTube to configure the new µTorrent 1.8.5 .
Now lowest speed is only about 260kB/s
Right click on your downloading torrent and set bandwidth allocation to high.
Download limit ~ Unlimited
Upload limit ~ 10kB/s
After you are done and wants to upload
Download limit ~ 60kB/s
Upload limit ~ Unlimited
If you are downloading something, pause or stop the other uploading torrents.
Using Forced Download is very useful to see that it is not queued for download.
