Setup:

2 windows 7 computers both on the same workgroup

the desktop is hardlined into the router, while he laptop is wireless to that router.

Desktop tries to leech a torent, no traffic UNLESS the laptop is leeching that same torrent.

WTF? lol

(No, they aren't dumping the file into the same directory)

Figured it out. active torrents were set to 8, thus maxing out since more than 8 were active.

NAT/PNP was enabled, letting excess active torrent to download only if the same active torrent was being download somewhere else on the network. (this could be a bug/security hole)

Problem was solved if:

-active torrents set to above 8

-and/or active completed torrents are stopped

advantages:

-Network-wide ping decreases immensely.

-Network-wide download speeds increases.
