Are you using a router, if so try forwarding your ports. I'm still downloading my copy from a.b.starwars, and I'm almost finnished. I had to stop my download earlier today because of work or else I would be watching it right know.

Make sure that your BT client's upload setting is no more that 80% of your bandwith. If the upload setting is to high, it can't send acknowledgment packets back to the tracker.
