Icon4 Seeding Questions for a newbie

Hello fellow bootleggers,

I'm new to this site and absolutely in love. Yall have given me a whole new rabbit hole in my life, but I have a question or two that would be great if I could get sorted out. For my first week, the Firewall confused me to no end. Eventually, I was able to open port forwarding and those angry red letters disappeared. Because I started with a splurge of torrents (mainly those Beatles Purple Chick compilations), my ratio is currently very low, and I would love to help seed. However, whenever I actually do upload, I'm going at the glacial speed of around 15 Kb/s. How can I pump these numbers? I am on port 6881 in qBitTorrent if that is relevant. Also, I often see myself firewalled at random times, needing me to pause and play the torrent. Is this just something that happens, or is there a way to prevent this? Thank you so much in advance, this is a wonderful community.
