  1. OK, there is alot of talk here about ISP's and bandwidth throttling, but why is it that whenever I use ANY torrent d/load software, either at work (on leased T1), or at home (Comcast, Chicago), i almost ALWAYS experience where the upload is higher than the download. and If i change the upload limit to (unlimited) it will go up as high as 75kbps and download is almost ALWAYS 3-4kbps max... OK, there are some d/loads that i get where they finish in 2hours, but 99% of them range in the U/L ratio of 200%+. And Ive seen where the Seeds are upwards of 20 IP Address, and they all have 100% avail, but i only d/load from 2 or 3 at best. Whats goin on here? Am I just not understanding the math behind Torrents? I thought the idea was, you get as much as you give? If that were the case, I would be supplying 900% of the uploads! (and getting maybe 1 file per every 3 weeks!) (I have Static IP, Linksys Wired Router, Motorola Surfboard modem, Comcast Broadband, No VOIP, NO Wireless, Windows XP SP2....etc..
