Ok, this happened just recently and I was wanting to see if anyone on the forums would know...
Ok, switched internet providers like 2 weeks ago. When I switched, I got there 256/64 (yes its slow, but it does what I need...). And it was doing great. But then, I decided to upgrade to 512/128. But heres where the problems start. When I start a torrent, it takes up 100% of my bandwidth. It didnt do that before on the 256/64 connection before I upgraded. When I have firefox open and goes to a page, it takes about 30 sec to load (have a addon that shows the load time. And usually, it only takes about 5-10 depending on the content of the page. And the problem is, on the upgraded connection, I can get a max of about 60kb/s. But even when im only downloading at like 10kb/s, it still takes up 100% of the bandwidth.
does anyone have any suggestions of why its doing this? And if so, do you know of a way to fix it:dabs::ph34r:...
