ISP torrent throttling .. Remedy...?

Hello,
i am using 100mbps plan , of meghbala pmpl … recently i can c that torrent speed have downgraded.. to a minimium.. hardly getting any speed..

ISP torrent speed throttling may have been done. ..though ISP has denied..

What to do.. how to regain speed in torrents..??

Plz help..

Try this.

Run it with option 3 . Works for me on Siti Cable in unblocking sites. But don’t expect full speed though.

I had to go with NordVPN and Singapore servers for full speeds on torrents.

First check line quality. If you have a faulty router/ISP switch you could be losing packets. This may not always show up in a speedtest, but torrents will be dead slow.

Do a simple ping google.com -t and see how frequently packets are dropped.


no drop packets…
which is economical vpn service which will allow high torrent speeds.

Keep observing that for a min or so. If no drops then look towards a VPN. Also, ping seems very high. I get 2-3 ms (i too have a 100 meg line)

Try some of the points mentioned here.

You could try cloudflare warp as a VPN, it’s free, not sure if they allow torrents.
Try changing your dns to cloudflare or Google.

yes ..for 1 min. observed.. ping time .. varying.. but no packet lloss…
good VPN options please.. price + effectiveness..?
Anyone willing to share their VPN .. at sharing basis.. if it is possible?

hmm ok.. Seems to be a restriction itself then. Sorry, but I do not have much experience with VPNs.

I’d first check speeds with a known well seeded torrent like an Ubuntu image download, see if your speeds take a hit during that.
Also, if you’re on wifi b/g, do the check over ethernet or at a time when you’re sure there is no one else using wifi bandwidth.
Try a 30d trial etc. of a reputed VPN (not the shady free ones). see if speeds improve when using the VPN.

get a seedbox

VPN => ProtonVPN Plus plan has good speed.

you can also get a cheap vps and set up a tunnel - i think you can get one at 3-4$ per month. ALso, aws free tier is also possible!
