Well even when torrents have say 100 seeds and no leechers..Still i cant cross 210 mark or at the most 212..
My connection is 2Mbps and yeah its ADSL ...I guess
i.e I have this Modem at my place and the LAN cable is passed on to it... Probably its ADSL..
RS has always been max any time be it day or night..
Even Right now i am gettin 213..I tried optimisin Utorrent through various guides but still cant cross it.
I even tried Azureus, But wasnt that comfortable with it, whereas Bitcomet is banned by various trackers..
Well losin 30Kbps sounds nothing...but in larger picture it costs a lot so all these efforts for that only..

Shouldn't you actually be maxing out around 256KB/s. You know the company I use says up to 7mbps. Does that mean I get 7 on a constant basis no, it just means at some point in time while downloading I might see that. Very seldom does it go up to 7 and stay there I've even seen it go higher then 7 running around 8 at times because they have a temp power boost that kicks in for a little while. Also keep in mind that if your UL at the same time your downloading that too is going to take up some bandwidth and effect your DL speed.
I dont think you can acheive 240KB with 2Mbps ADSL line.
HTTP/FTP download should be faster than Torrent but not that faster - 14% is a lot.
What you use to download from rapid ?
Is the speed constant or fluctate a bit ?
Yeah i know that mathematically i should be getting 256KB/s. But i get average 240Kbps for pretty much anything i download through HTTP. Except Torrents.. Havent tried P2P and FTP yet..!!
And yeah as i mentioned even when my Uploads are Nil i dont cross 212..
For Instance recently i was downlaoding i torrnt with 39 seeds and 0 leechers...Still i was getting 212..As soon i got RS links for the same and i started d/lding i got my usual 240..
I am using IDM i.e Internet Download Manager for download from RS.
And well speeds fluctuated sometimes..But often its around 235-240Kbps..
If its spikes to 300 for couple of secs then it will automaticall go down to 180-190 for couple of secs..giving average around 235-240...

Get an actual speedtest first.
Then set download on Max, and upload would be about 75%-85& fo your max upload bandwidth. Also if you are using utorrnet then you can set the option for upload on automatic so it can be adjusted while you are browsing or using some of the bandwidth fro something other than bittorrnet applications
