Knoppix 4.0 DVD! Yipee! Please send along the URL of the torrent, and
I'll tell you if I am seeing similar slowness.
One Q: do you have ports 6881-6889 forwarded to the machine trying
the download? I had heard rumors that more modern bittorrent clients
were throttling download rates for one-way, download-only clients,
but cannot confirm such.

I suppose, my netgear router (I don't go on the Comcast segment

Or maybe the Knoppix 4.0 DVD torrent I'm using is poor.
Or do I need to fiddle some of the Linux firewall settings to
let connections happen at a good rate? (FC2 2.6.10 kernel.)
What rates do other folks see?
