so i started downloading something using utorrent!!!
initially i got good speeds but now it does not go above like 20 kbps.
if i download anything using idm , i still get speed above 100 kbps.
whats the problem and what can be done about it ???????

Could be a few things. You may have a firewall blocking utorrent such as windows firewall or from your antivirus software, could be low amount of seeders for the torrents you choose. You may need to open the port in your router (consult your network setup wizard), you may have a slow network card, you may have other programs running on your computer or other users on your network hogging bandwidth. You may be using wireless? All of these things will slow down your torrent

May be your ISP throttles your torrent connection

i use wifi.......
the thing is that in the starting few hours i did get very good speeds and it dropped after that !!!
at this point if download anything using idm i do get full speeds but not with utorrent !!!!11

it also depends how much speed the seeds/peers are giving..if they have setup low upload speed then bad luck
