Torrents going slow.

Hello.

I have a weird problem. Before I mention the problem, I'd like to say what client I use and what sites I get the .torrent files from. I use uTorrent and get my .torrent files off Mininova or Torrentspy for the majority of the time.

Well, here's the problem - I'm on a Sify Unlimited Downloads 256k line. My problem is that my torrent downloads go very slow. Although this happens only at morning times. After 9 in the night, my downloads go at the max possible speed which is 30 KB/s for my connection. I'd like to achieve a transfer speed of 30 KB/s even at morning/afternoon times and I'd like to know how I can do that. Should I mess around with the settings to achieve these speeds? If so what should I change? Advice please.

PS

Whenever I download video reviews and trailers from sites such as Gamespot and Gametrailers, I'm able to download at 30 KB/s, even at morning times. However this is not the case with torrents.

Please help. :huh:
 
for a start, you should tweak your BT client settings to try to max your connection speed. here's a useful guide:

also, u may not be maxing out your connection speed because you're DLing public torrents off Mininova/Torrentspy, which usually don't have good seed/leech ratio. try getting on private trackers like demonoid, which tend to have better seeded torrents.
