With new files I can max out my connection and get around 60 kB/s. e.g. when the new friends and south park came out this week. Just finished The Recruit from www.suprnova.org and got a pretty steady 40 kB/s the whole way.

Older files, it depends, could be anything. The newer the file is. the more chance of getting great speeds.

My rate are usually between 150 and 200 kb/s after the first 5 minutes. I have it set to unlimited with a 0 kb/s download rate and 6 upload sources. If you have cable you need to make sure that the upload rate isn't too high, If it is it will slow down your download rate. If thats happens just lower your the number of people who can upload from you for a few minutes.

if you can't find it on these site, what your looking for isn't our for BT, most of these sites have a great datebase of goodies for everybody what they might be looking for.

BT depends on few things, how fast is your connection, how fast others who might be trying to download this file and people who are sharing this file. BT has great speeds, but they can only grow and increase if what you downloading is popular and others also downloading or wanting. This is why, when something new and hot comes out, you better start downloading when it came out, chances are, speeds would be greater then few days or week later. BT depends on how many people are downloading the file and their connection speed, thats how the file spreads.

I hope this was helpful.

cheers :D :rolleyes:

UsrX, Hey im using a Linksys router too. But im not having any problems connecting with BT. If you want to disable stuff thats built into the router type in 192.168.1.1 and then ur User account and password (Default would be Admin/Admin).

Use this link if ur lazy
Linksys Router Set Up (http://192.168.1.1)

If all else fails, better pray that Kazaa gets its hands on the files for you to get it

Best sites out there :D

and the best one for anime:

http://anime.mircx.com/

oh and my speed:

Depends on the popularity and size of the file. For anime, it's a good 70kb/s (and sometimes higher ^_^ ) the whole way. For movies/others, 1kb/s - 50kb/s
