    i left it at the settings for dialup/isdn and ran netlimiter with it..are you using netlimiter yet?


    "oh and theres about ten peers and three or more seeds "
    seems like you dont have many ppl sharing the file...and maybe not many have a fast connection...who knows for sure....

    A v.90 56k connection is AT MAX THEORETICAL SPEED capable of only 53 kilobits/sec download and 33.6 kilobits/sec upload.

    But you won&#39;t get max theoretical speeds... you&#39;ll probably connect at 40-50 kilobits/sec DOWNLOAD and upload is probably hovering around 20-30 kilobits/sec.

    However, you can&#39;t just divide by 8 to get KiloBYTES/sec (KB/sec for short)&#33; There&#39;s lots of networking overheads, which means even at 50 kilobits/sec download bandwidth you can only download around 5-5.5 KB/sec.

    more like 2-3 KB/s
    none-the-less, us slow internet-connection guys are also human. If you gouge out our eyes with a hot iron rod do we not scream out in pain? If you gouge out n&#39;sync&#39;s eyes do we also laugh out with joy?

    toonmental: If you&#39;re after big files forget about bittorrent. Choose something like shereaza or kazaa lite K++. Put the file on downlad and sit-back and relax, you&#39;ll get it eventually (in a month or so)
