1)In the above screenshot, it saying "No incoming connections. It could be some problem with your network configuration". Inspite of this how am I able to download at 7.3KB/s ??
Also whenever the icon turns green(a green tick), I am unable to get good speeds inspite of the network being ok. I then get around 1~2KB/s. :confused:

2) What does the wasted means? What does it indicates?

I remember reading both of your questions in the FAQ.

Wasted data are erroneous data that fail hash checks. Happens either due to corrupt data transfer or bogus data being sent by someone.

For the port issue, head to www.portforward.com

Visit the link in my sig.
BTW, with 10 seeds and 2 peers, even I get the same sort of speeds.

hey..

It is happening due to you've not forwarded port in your router. And also you've installed firewall which blocking incoming connections.. so please check this..

and speed is depends on seeders and peers. If you've less seeders and peers you won't get full speed. It also depends on seeders and peers ratio..

Peers = Leechers

Generally, a peer is a seeder or leecher. Thats why torrent is a peer to peer network, but according to uTorrent terminology, peer is a leecher. So you can have 0 seeds and 15 peers, no worries.
