Tell me, what would the differences be (in speed?) between using port 81 or say, port 55000 in a P2P Client? Would there be noticeable differences?

Tell me, what would the differences be (in speed?) between using port 81 or say, port 55000 in a P2P Client? Would there be noticeable differences?
Depends on what else is using those ports. Just pick a port for your p2p that is not being used for anything else and there is no need to worry. Answer isn't going to change just b/c you keep asking the same question in different threads.

BOT EDIT: REMOVED THE QUOTE, NO NEED TO QUOTE ALL THAT.
Thanks alot for that ! Does that apply to everyone, or just your PC?
But would using an unassigned port gain faster speeds than using something that's being used, like port 80? If two ports are being used at the same time, they'll still work, just slower?
cheers for that guit_steel :)

The only reason why 1 ip port is 'faster' than others is your ISP isn't limiting it in speed like or as much as the others.
IS there anyway of finding out which ports are slowed down? I hear my ISP slows down non priority ports... I'm using port 554 instead of 80, which is an unassigned port... Good idea?
Trial and error only -- and LOTS of it!Quote:

However, non-priority ports are probably EVERYTHING not related to web surfing, emails, and downloading from (presumeably legit!) FTP servers.
So ip port 554 would be considered a non-priority port -- since it's none of the above... and that means it won't be as fast.
ALSO, ip port 80 is probably completely blocked or throttled IMMENSELY for outgoing -- as almost anything sending outward on ip port 80 is either hostile viruses or 'illegal' web servers.
Your ISP may also be doing even more serious blocking of any and/or ALL UDP traffic, as this is considered 'broadcast' traffic -- which 'mere web surfers' should have no need of according to many ISPs. :(
Ares Lite sets my port to 37964 by default, and it goes blazinginly fast, so I guess I'll use that one for everything!
What port should I set for my Firewall Port in Client Firewall Settings for most P2P programs?
By the way, is that Port List that Guit posted only for his PC or is it the same for everyone?
