Upload Speed??

[a1anm]

My current briadband connection has an upstream of 448 Kbps.

When i'm seeding torrents the maximum upload I can achieve is around is 50 kb/s.

Is this correct or should i be able to upload at higher speeds. If so what could be limiting me?

My settings in utorrent are set to not limit the upload speed.

448kbps means u can upload at 448/8=56kB/s max.

That's a good average

Yep looks as if you are maxing out your up, so all is good M8.

Same upload speed here... 488 kbps or 61 kB/s.

I only let mine upload 31 kB/s max, so it won't affect my download/browsing speed...

You don't need to cap it at 31. You can cap it at 40 no problem

Unless you have unusual browsing habits off course

Yeah I watch a lot of streaming videos online, so anything 31 KB/s is my max...

But I use uTorrent's Scheduler and I let both my download and upload speeds to their maximums overnight and when I'm at work... One of the things I love about uTorrent...

ok - good to know. just assumed it would've been higher than that.

cheers.

You should cap it about 3-4 KB from your max, both upload and download (5 if you are seeding 100s of torrents)

Keeps everything running smoother

Upload like 100 kB/s
