Again for reference.. tagged the DVD torrent for download and it's also coming in at over 1200kbps. I started the downlaod (4.01GB) just after I sent the first reply in this thread... so around 45 minutes ago, and the DVD is over half done... about 25 minutes left.
ISP is hinet.net, but do not know if the throttle torrent back. I also go much faster on the addon cd and another cd, but only 20 to 40 KB/sec.
How do you do the port forwarding you mention?
It depends on your router... and your firewalls. This site has some excellent info on what it's all about including specific instructions for most router models http://portforward.com/routers.htm If you follow it through by selecting a router model, it will give you a long list of links for applications, and BitTorrent is one of the choices... tells you exactly what ports are needed and how to set it up.
Just to clarify... The choice for BitTorrent in the linked website is for the Windows application... KTorrent is not listed... KTorrent and Azureus are close enough that the instructions and explanation for Azureus can be adapted for KTorrent... so... maybe the Azureus link is a better one.
C. The average speed of the x86 dvd torrent is very low. This night I have downloaded only 2 GB of it. There are a lot of leachers and I will keep my Ktorrent running as long as I can so that the average speed increases. Please all of you do the same!
