how does bit torrent actually work then? do the websites that post torrent only connect u to peers that have go through that website? or does it connect u to any peer that is usin bit torrent. for example, if i connect through website A, will sources that connect to website B be availible to me?

Also, i use a 128 cable modem, wat maxium download speed should i expect, atm i am gettin around 14kb/sec at maximum, is that bad for my connection speed?

peace
