Please Help
Why are my downloads so slow: As I said earlier the downloads are proportional to your uploads so if you upload less then you will also download less. If you are lucky you may begin downloading the file while there are lots of seeds, and since they have completed 100% of the file they will be uploading to you and not downloading from you and hence your download will be increased.

Well, it depends. How many seeds are there? How many peers are there? How big is the download? Are you on a router, and if so are the necessary ports being forwarded?
All of these things can affect download speeds. I've gotten up to 400 kb/s from bittorrent.
Holy Shit, 400kb/s, NICE!!!Originally posted by Xilo@30 November 2003 - 23:08

you should configure firewall to bypass bittorent unless... it already is........ and it also takes patience....
yes and xp has a firewall also, you need to configure it correctly
do you have shadows client, it has a light
besides being the best client
