Solve : Speed best for download torrents more then 1GB?

Answer»

Dear Users
What is the best speed download for torrents files
ThanksUhh
I'd say as fast as possible...

Maybe you should try rephrasing your question...I don't think, you can help it here. Torrents are slow, and it's the way, they are.
The best speed for files over 1GB is: OVERNIGHT....just kidding.I do hope that was a joke Broni.
The factors that INFLUENCE the download speed of a torrent is, the speed of the connection, the configuration of the bittorrent client and the amount of people seeding the file(s). But to say that torrents are inherently slow is just false.
I've just downloaded the Ubuntu 7.04 DVD (~4gb). That took me about 3 hours... Don't think that's particularly slow.

That's about right...
When I SAID slow, I meant, they are usually slower, then regular downloads.
On a funny note...I REALLY wanted one particular foreign movie, and it took me 7 days to get it (I had only 1, sometimes 2 seeders)...LOLQuote from: Broni on October 09, 2007, 04:22:15 PM

That could be why...

When I have a torrent with pretty good health I can get downloads up to 500+ kb/s. Lots faster than anything else (aside from newsgroups) that I download.Are you my neighbor? I live in Daly City...

i leave my torrents RUNNING overnight next day they are done haha and if you want your torrent downloading faster do some reserch or ask around about port fowarding that may help if you use a router.gamemar
Excellent info. Thank you.
I went to portforward.com, and it was a breeze Quote from: Broni on October 09, 2007, 08:12:16 PM
