i tried to follow the old thread posted here a while ago and i went to the site everyone suggested but once it got to the ip adress part i become confused, i'm not a computer person but i love downloading movies and it takes 2 days for mine to download can anyone help me????

moved to correct forum as not a suggestions & feedback issue.

Are you using a router, if so what model. What modem do you have, there should be a sticker or something? What port, Azureus recommends one over 47, something, say over 50,000? What ISP, they may block torrents: http://www.azureuswiki.com/index.php/Bad_ISPs If you use any firewall, even Windows, you have to make Azureus an exception in it. Enable Protocol Encryption: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/395674 And won't help the speed issue but look into using SafePeer in Azureus if you're not.

um...i'm ususing wireless from my university..so i don't know what router, and i am also connected to their landline...i am so clueles

Most universities, if not all, are blocking p2p, they wouldn't want illegal downloading in their name. Unless you're friends with their IT, I don't see anyway around it. I doubt it will help but disable UPnP: http://www.azureuswiki.com/index.php/UPnP
