Don't have the biggest pipe in the world, but would expect more uploading to be going on. Oh well. Will keep 'em running at least through the weekend. V.

The outgoing I have not caped and it has been consistent around 8k or so for the last week even though i was not really getting anything in at all. Thanks to all of you leaving your torrents turned on. I had the same problem with a decreasing dowloload speed rate. To solve it, open your firewall ! Why ? I'll try to explain. First, use download/bittorrent-shadowsclient-5.8.4-1mdk.noarch.rpm from http://rpms.mandrakeclub.com/rpms/MandrakeClub/test/9.1/i586/BByName.html It replace the old bitttorrent and shows the torrent with a click on Advanced. Don't hesitate to use it. When starting a download, bittorrent opens ~20 links which can upload or download few k/s (often 2 or 4ks). The sum of them can reach your maximum bandwith. Each link uses a different port. If you open the window Advanced, you can see in the third column LocalRemote that all the links are L like local. This is because they was initiated locally. The firewall (or shorewall) accepts links of any port initiated locally. Few time later, the column shows L and R links. The R links are Remote links, initiated from outside. If the firewall is not opened for ports 6881..6999, never appears. With hours, the number of L decreases and number of R increases. Now, only upload works at 13k/s (download is finished for 48h) and I have 38 peers : 34 R and 4 L. If you don't open your firewall, you can understand why the DL rate is low! How-to open the port ? Edit /etc/shorewall/rules and add at the end ACCEPT net fw tcp 6881:6999 # shorewall restart I hope it helps... -- Pierre Jarillon - http://pjarillon.free.fr/ Vice-président de l'ABUL : http://abul.org/

My ADSL is 1.5Mbit down, 128Kbit up. 1.5Mbit = 187KB/s theoretically, but 150KB is what I usually get. 128Kbit = 15.7KB/s, but 12 to 13KB/s is the norm for me. I'm usin 8 bits per byte, tho I think acks, nacks and such and eat some more bits up (?), to try'n convert rated DSL bit speeds to actual kilo bytes. I got the iso's in about 12 hours last Wednesday. To get any d/l speed tho, I had to limit upload to 6KB/s till my iso's were complete. Since then I've taken the limit off and let it upload at 12 to 13KB/s. And will do so thru next week or longer depending on http://torrent.mandrakesoft.com:6969/ stats. -- Tom Brinkman Corpus Christi, Texas

My plan is to leave each torrent up until at least twice as much has been sent as was fetched. well I dont know a way to monitor total but over the last few days I have at least given twice as much as I have received. seeing as how upload was almost always at least double and most of the time it was three times as much or more. I plan to leave it on for as long as I can over the next week though. This is for the powerpack 3 cd and not the download version. For me I decided not to complain anymore and just let others enjoy but it was truly nice to see a decent download speed when i got back on tonight. I shut it off for sabbath.
