thenetstud Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 I am having issues using torrent applications in Leopard. I use a MacBook connected wirelessly to my Airport Extreme Base Station. Prior to purchasing this computer I used Windows Vista on a PC with utorrent, never had any issues always had good speeds when I should. Just got the MacBook with Leopard. I have tried three torrent programs, BitRocket, Transmission and Azureus. I have enabled port forwarding on the base station and in each client. I have had the most luck with Transmission, I will be able to download sometimes but my speeds with fluctuate from top speed to 0kb/s within a minute and this happens during the entire download process. BitRocket and Azureus won't even start downloading at all for me. Last night I installed Windows Vista using BootCamp and put utorrent on as well. Started a download and I had no problems just like when I was using my old PC. Any ideas of what I could be doing wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you are doing anything wrong - there seem to be problems with Leopard and networking.
