Ultima Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Then there's the problem. You can't finish the torrent unless the availaiblity is at least 1.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 There are no guarantees to speed in BitTorrent. You get what other people give you. The best you can do is use the Speed Guide properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
