i've got 2mb/256kb but thats just standard in northern ireland. my isp boosted me from 512Kb to 2Mb for free. There is a 4mb and 8mb service coming soon though
if so what speeds u at?
Well I don't know exactly the speed of my pipe, but I can download at a maximum of 190 kB/sec and upload at around 45-50 kB/sec.
So I'm guessing that's around 1.5mb/512kbps... right?
:unsure: whats seeding?Quote:

Generally, it's considered good manners to continue seeding a file after you have finished downloading, to help out others. Also, when a new torrent is posted to a tracker, someone must seed it in order for it to be available to others. Remember, the tracker doesn't know anything of the actual contents of a file, so it's important to follow through and seed a file if you upload the torrent to a tracker.
My fastest download was around 524kb/s. Too bad my upload is capped at 40 >:o
I have a 8Mbit/1.5Mbit connection with highest transfer rates achieved of 800kbps
Costs about 120 CDN
¿CDN? € or $ please! I pay 40€ for 2Mbps/256Kbps :( Spain sux!Quote:

These speeds are insane! The fastest I've gotten is 300kbps
i didn't get a screen shot but one time i downloaded over 100MB in under 60 seconds :w00t:
well, you won't be getting that speed anymore - Atleast from ET...!
When I'm downloading from a well seeded torrent, I get steady speeds of ~500 kb\sec, and max ever seen is 600 kb\sec (lineage2.com has an awesome line).
Oh btw, I pay $60 (395 NOrwegian Kroner , which is actually very cheap)/month for a 384kbps/384kbps wireless internet.
Now you can bet various anuses that I did NOT tell my ISP about this little "problem" with my net connetion... harrharharr XD
520?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my MAX download speed is 206!!!!
u guys complain.. what about me 256/256 .. there is nothing better out here .. I pay $15 .. the next best thing is fiber optic with over $100.. I'm sticking to this 4 now :)
What HELL are you in? I tought ADSL/DSL had already spread all over the world :cry:Quote:

wow u downloaded that fast, i neva have and im on a 4mb connection.... wat are the addresses for those sites plz? sorry if that a noob question or wateva =)
peace.thanx.
Man, I'm from Bulgaria. I don't live there right now but i wish i did. There are 100Mbps LAN's there with servers that has any release you like. I don't know the LAN's bandwidth to the Internet but i bet is rather fast maybe 100Mbps too (symetric) so if you can't find what you're looking for on the server you just use bittorrent or any other P2P. There are normally limits of traffic but if you pay a little more there isn't any. And a little more is much less than the 40€ i pay here in Spain for a 2Mbps/256Kbps :cry:Quote:

And thats mostly because Sprint wanted to cut inot some of brighthouses revenue, bastards wouldn't do anything before...Quote:

I think I can get the best dl speed on filelist but I should try torrentit and torrentleech
man i need to get into one of those sites
me to.. I am waiting to get an accont on filelist.org but it seems that it won't be sonn :(
try any private popular torrent site, you will get pretty good speeds. But getting a membership to private sites can be hard.Quote:

download managhers r used for ftp/http download... u just need a good tracker were users upload a lot and so u will get resonable speeds :)... and yes getting a mermership to a good tracker (private) is quite hard because they have user limits or they just let people in with invites, and so on... this is the best way to make users upload and so the tracker's users get good speeds :)
Well for one Private torrents sites are invites only. But on rare occasions they open for public sign ups......Quote:

http://www.torrent-damage.net
http://torrentbytes.net/
http://www.torrentparadise.com (one of my fav.)
Try to sign up for these sites and you will see improved dl speed. I have signed up with all those web sites + more, and its great.
Try to visit these forums to get a private invite:

Good luck! :)
thanks alot, especially that post by sameer, very helpful. ima go check out the links u have listed now, thanks again
that's why it's so hard to maintain a decent ration on sites like oink--everybody's trying to get upload credit, so there're always a ton of seeders and very few leechers.
Luckily everyone can upload there own torrents on oink so it's not that hard to have a good ratio there.
filelist.org is a good private tracker but they never can allow new people to sign up with them
what is ET??plz anyone give me the link 4 it?
thank you
:o
whoa thats hella fast!
