.5kB/s! Ha beat that!

The torrent is just getting warmed up.

583 kb/sec for me. 30 minute download of the TG downloads section. Pretty good.

**Apophis** · 08-25-2006, 12:42 AM

When I downloaded the original torrent to one of the TG servers I was getting about 1.6MB/sec. At home I was only getting about 400-500KB/sec. I've left my home machine up seeding but I've got it capped at 170KB/sec upload.

I can only get up to about 200kB/s on torrents, and usually only if most of that bandwidth is coming from one peer. I think my router must have a problem with having so many connections open at once since torrents are pretty slow on my connection and uTorrent always give me an warning that a router/firewall is limiting my traffic. Sadly, I can't do much about it since it's not really my router, but my parents.... and they wouldn't like it if I made a direct connection to the modem and cut off their internet access.

Bah, why is it something always goes wrong if I do it at 3AM? When I downloaded the torrent Azureus didn't like it, so I opened it in the default BitTorrent client. I went back to bed, when I got up a few minutes ago, it had done 8MB until I got a tracker error saying it didn't like port 6881. ¬_¬

Well I managed to get it working in Azureus now and I am downloading away now. Browsing is suddenly very slow...
