Torrents Still At 0kb/s

[$B.]

Shows that BT sucks more.

I used to be able to download torrents quite fast and I've had AOL for ages.

It has about 10 seeds. I've tried torrents with over 100 seeds and they're still at like, 4kb/s max. What's protocol encryption?

Higher seeders means you'll have a faster connection, all torrents start out slow, the more data you upload, you faster you can download. It's sharing system.

Why are you all saying your internet speeds suck? It's better than my lousy 2.1meg.

[Agnostic Bear]

i want 50 meg ((((((((

not available in my area yet.

[Robbie]

Same, only the 20meg. Although I'm happy with my 18meg with be for almost half the prive and no STM

The max I get with torrents is about 50kB/s so I don't bother with them. Rapidshare is much better imo.


Doesn't really make sense. 2400kb/s = 300kB/s and I get 500kB/s from rapidshare.

EDIT: I win slowest prize.

Because above is how fast you can d/l from that speedtest server. If you go to your router and look at your downstream sync rate thats how fast you can d/l.

e.g mine:

I'm afraid I'm going to have to claim that slowest prize.



My average BitTorrent download speeds are about 30kb/s but I've had up to about 90kb/s before..
