Hello, I have a MBP 2017 touchbar and ever since updating to Big Sur, I have noticed that the download speeds via torrents have been erratic. Up until last Thursday I had no such issues and having made no changes to my router settings the only thing I can point toward is the update to Big Sur. A friend of mine in a different country also brought up the same topic a couple of days back so it cant just be me. My ISP says there isn't anything they have done and were quite surprised at what they saw. Spent an hour over call with their tech to fix the issue but none of us could get it fixed. I checked on reddit and some said that it has to do with some security settings in Big Sur.
I have tried, utorrent web, transmission, folx and my default program qbittorrent. In neither of these could i get a port forwarded. Sometimes I can get a port forwarded in qbittorrent but still the download speeds are abysmal.
Can anyone please assist.
