I've been trying for 2 weeks to download the dvd iso torrent... Shows a ton of seeders, few leechers, but very poor performance.. (I'm correctly setup for torrents and get fast downloads normally) Only like 4% downloaded and crawling. I've tried the trackers from every one of the mirror sites. I can't use the net install because the systems I am installing are on a closed network.
Anyone have any ideas where else to get this or any suggestions? Thx, R

I just did a normal download using wget and downloaded it just fine. Here is the shell script I used:

I ran it overnight (I did the 32-bit ISOs as three successive nights and the 64-bit ISOs over 4 nights). I did this on the local library's 'high speed' (900mhz wireless) link (about 1-2 mbits/sec).

Yea but that isn't the 64-bit.. I can download fast and w/o issues.. I can't get the _64bit_ DVD ISO. I can get the 64bit cdrom images 1 -7... but not the DVD ISO __via the torrent__.
I get smoking downloads of unrelated torrents. Smoking downloads from various vendor sites. (ie: Oracle 11g in ~90 minutes)

Did you look at my whole message? I downloaded *both* the 32-bit AND the 64-bit (2 DVDs). I used a straight download with wget for all of them.

I tried the tracker from the kernel.org site just minutes ago using the Ktorrent client. After a couple minutes, my stats looked like:
Leechers: 10 (125) Average Up Speed: 2.1 KB/s Seeders: 40 (900) Average Down Speed: 560.7 KB/s
I blew off the d/l 'cause I already have a DVD but that would work out to a bit less that 2 hours for the DVD image. That's pretty much wide open for my DSL connection.
Have you tried any of the speed tests available? That should eliminate your torrent client as a suspect. Here are two 2 test sites. The first requires flash; the second uses java, often has requests in queue but gives a lot of network information. I have both bookmarked. http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ http://miranda.ctd.anl.gov:7123/
Good luck!
Yep.. I've tried numerous speed test and at my slowest it was 19m down and 768k up.

Did you try the .torrent file from mirror.centos.org ? I just checked and am able to saturate a 100mbps link here in the UK, and a 50 mbps link in the US with the c5.5-x86_64 torrent.

I don't quite understand why all this fuss about some DVD ISOs...
At least the Portuguese mirrors work very nicely... Here's an example:
