QBTorrent downloading fine upon starting then slowing to almost a halt

Hi everyone,

Upon starting, the downloads work fine for a mere several seconds, after which they slow down to almost a complete halt, and sometimes stall altogether.

I'm quite sure it's got to do with settings, as my desktop that's connected to the same router also via ethernet does not have this problem.

Running the latest version, have tried re-installing, etc., nothing seems to be working.

If I quit the application, and re-launch it, same thing - fine for a few seconds, then extremely slow.

Help appreciated,

Thank you

Re-installation after complete removal worked on my old hw/sw.
In my case, I suspect inadvertent change of some obscure setting.
But then, ISP vans have been working the neighborhood too.

I've gotten much better performance using an entirely different OS live, but fully changing will be tedious.
And I'm never sure how much longer I can keep this old stuff running.
