Utorrent causing bad internet for many weeks after :/

Hi, after using utorrent my internet remains fucked badly for many weeks afterward. Can any network specialist explain to me why this happens (in details please).

I share the internet with the neighborhood (there is a central server for this neighborhood that assigns me an ip, my external ip however is different). I had a similar problems when I used to be connected directly to an ISP (cable connection). These were helped sometimes by resetting the modem and router.

I'm sure this problem is caused by utorrent, and not by the internet being clogged up by the neighbors internetting. Cheerios

Did you try posting this in the utorrent support forums (if something like that exists) ? Would be the first thing I'd do, else I can't help you...
i did, but they dont help you there ironically

It's being clogged up by the neighbours internetting. There's probably a set limit with how much you can download and you've crossed it. What does that do? You're back on smallband now.
No there isnt i told you im sure its caused by utorrent.

Deïnstall Utorrent? How could something simple like a torrent client fuck up your internet? I can understand that it'd fuck up your computer with some random virus but not your internet.
Parent
its the internet which is fucked not my pc :)
Parent
Then sue your ISP.
Parent
or try to understand the problem an act appropriately, which is what im trying to do
Parent
I am acting properly. There is no single way to "fuck up" your internet. It's either an external program to blame (As you stated: Utorrent) or your provider has done something wrong... Try 'your' solution, plug out the modem and router and plug them back in.

Define "fucked" though, what's wrong with your internet?
Parent
no i ment in third person not you :D.

A: well just that if you would come to my house connect your pc to my internet cable which directly comes into my house (no router or modem), you coulnt watch youtube movies, websites load slow sometimes not at all, play ET you get insanely bad ping jumps 60 - 999. etc etc all that comes with fucked internet
Parent
That's weird:| has this problem occured before? You should get a new provider (Or get one if I read correctly that you don't have one)

Fuck those neighbours stealing your internets :P.
Parent
i hv one, ofc no internet without a provider, and i had it before, also when i lived somewhere else with a different provider but then i used to hv router and resetting it helped sometimes
Parent
Resetting doesn't help at all? Just call your provider they can help you more then anyone on here.
Parent
maybe someone here is a network specialist, i doubt those morons at my isp could help alot exept for assigning me a different ip (im sure that would solve it), but io just want to understand this problem totally, i just gave it a shot here welll ok thx anyway
Parent
How the fuck it can cause that?
have it too sometimes, i go offline for some hours then(real life reminder by god i think), and then im back on
Its not nice to lie dude....
Parent
try using "TuneUp Utilities 2008"

Just get a proper connection and you dont have to care -,-
Parent

Parent

Parent

Parent
INSTALLING INSTALLING
Parent
ok im confused...do i just do all the scans? =/
Parent
look where my mouse cursor is !
Parent
doubt utorrent is causing that
well he claim everything started after he used utorrent
i advice him to use TuneUp Utilities 2008
Parent
you shouldnt doubt, cause i know for sure
Parent
utorrent isnt running it just causes this problem, then you can connect any pc to my internet (no router or modem ) and you will have bad internet for many weeks
Parent
did u try router reset??? plugging it off and plugging it back on
Parent
direct connected to the cable same problem, lol i knew people would come up with this shit
Parent
its not shit it 100% solves my problem
try this test: http://tinyurl.com/bttest it can detect if ur isp hurts your utorrent stuffs
Parent
hey thats fucking good for the future :D thx , but its not for my current problem :)
Parent
call your isp and ask for a speed test
die of aids plz

Parent

your isp realizes you're on torrents and caps you right down.

Parent

Parent
Some places they kick out people who use DC or torrent from the interwebz.. Could that have happened to you?
In that case, change your mac address =o)
