BitTorrent Client

Are you a Globe Tatoo DSL subscriber?

Do you have torrent client running on your PC? That could be the culprit. For uTorrent, you need to uncheck all Basic BitTorrent features.

For subscribers on Dynamic IPs only, your torrent client’s settings could be messing up your internet connectivity. You don’t even need to be downloading anything. Just the torrent client open and on your system tray is enough. And not all technicians know about this. It just happened that the technician who visited our house, Marc Sideno, figured it out earlier today.

To find out dynamic IP go to http://www.whatsmyip.org/ reboot modem, if you have same IP after rebooting then you have a static IP.  If you get another IP, then you’re on a dynamic IP.

If you’ve been calling the customer service hotline, you’ve probably heard this already.  Call the customer service department for instructions on how to do this.
