this is much common problem than i thought. a lot of people on the internet having this issue. but there is no one apparent solution. some are claiming to fix the problem by changing router setting or replacing router itself, some say that it was their ISP and after some time it's fixed. in my case i recently switched my ISP and at the same time had a issue with my router(now it's fixed). i'm not gonna spend on a new router only to find out that my old router was ok. i had no such issue with my previous ISP. so i can't put my finger on anything. anyone got solution to this?
 
Solution
Surely torrent users have to accept there's some form of price to pay for the stuff you download, even if it's only a slowdown in your Net connection.


this doesn't help when there are too many active torrents, only when actively up/downloading
the problems is less the speed available as it is the connections/streams available
 
ya i know but the thing is that setting is not working. and with my previous isp i didn't had to do anything i was able to browse while downloading at9-10mb/s
