Hi TE ppl ...

I have BSNL Home 500 plane...

Whenever i try to download Torrents i got very low speed (50-70KBps) ...

But on rapidshare i got 150-200kbps speed ...

Why this happen ????
 
^^ Look..

The speed of torrent depends upon number of seeders of that torrent files..

No. of seeders > No. of Leechers ==> More download speed.

What kind of torrent client do you use? Usually, if you want better speeds, you have to set up a static IP and do some port forwarding. Portforward.com has several guides for configuring different routers and torrent clients, probably wouldn't be a bad place to start.
 
Its confirmed India ISP are among the BitTorrent Throttling ISPs

All the major Indian ISPs - BSNL, VSNL, Reliance, Airtel are in that list.

as Rahulrulez said the download speeds range up to 2 Mbps max with 256 kbps being minimum. Recently the upload speeds have gone up to 512 kbps.

remember its all in kilo bits per second, not kilo Bytes, so a on a 256kbps connection you should get 32 kilo Bytes of data theoretically.

I get steady 185 KBps Download and 47 KBps upload (both throttled for DL/UL balance) on private trackers and sometimes even on open trackers (if there are more seeders than leechers).
