More and more ISP’s are limiting BitTorrent traffic on their networks. And this leads to decreased download as well as upload rate, and sometimes you won’t be able to connect at all. The list of ISP’s that limit BitTorrent traffic, or plan to do so is growing every day, here’s a list of ISPs that are known to cause trouble for BitTorrent clients or P2P in general.
So how to get back your full download speed? The answer lies in encrypting your torrent protocol.
Encrypting your torrents will prevent throttling ISP’s from shaping your traffic. Here is a tutorial on how to enable encryption in Azureus, uTorrent, and Bitcomet, the three most popular torrent clients. [via torrentfreak]

Another solution would be to sign up for a torrent site that is located in your country, or a torrent site that has many users from your country. That way you can download the files very very fast.

You could use FilesWire, its not a torrent client but rather a web-based p2p client. Because it is web based you can use it fromany location so this therefore makesit very difficult for isps to monitor your specific traffic usage. http://www.fileswire.com
