DreadWingKnight Posted March 19, 2008 Report Posted March 19, 2008 A lot of your questions are hard to answer without more information.Follow the connection setup guide.
jewelisheaven Posted March 19, 2008 Report Posted March 19, 2008 Read the Setup Guide (Guides page in my signature, link #3).Downloads happen at your linespeed. You will find this out from a speed test during the setup procedure.
hermanm Posted March 19, 2008 Report Posted March 19, 2008 > do they go quicker if i only do one or two at once?It depends on the other people sending you the file. On open trackers, sometimes the speed is very slow. You might get 4k per second. That's going to take days. Other times, if you hook up to a fast sender then you might get it sooner. There's too many factors to say one setup is better than another. If your download is really slow, I'd probably download at least a few at a time because the speed is so slow.
Switeck Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Especially on "slower" large torrents (>200 MB torrents with few peers and seeds), it is often unusual to be downloading much faster than you are uploading...since everyone is fighting to complete the torrent at once.Your upload is others' download...and vice-versa.
