Anyone else having this problem? When running ktorrent (to get 10.00GM. Seems a fat chance of that succeeding so far...) I'm getting download speeds of the 0.5kbps to 1.0kbps level, and then after about 3-4mb it stalls. What's more it seems to kill the ethernet connection to the firewall, which I can only bring up again by rebooting the smoothie box or the suse 9.3 box.

Maybe you are bound by not reducing the upload rate to 80% of your line capacity? Cheers -e -- Eberhard Moenkeberg (emoenke@gwdg.de, em@kki.org)

I've fiddled with that in the ktorrent config drop down menu - set it to something like 20kbps max, which on a 2mbit adsl connection (which is supposed to be theoretically what per second? I seldom get more than about 170kbps on it) seems like well under 80%... Unless you are referring the actual download speed? If that is a princely 1.0kbps, then should I limit the upload to o.25kbps? Somehow I can't imagine that being the case... I've opened the relevant port using YAST, although that didn't make any difference. It was uploading quite well before that, though.

He is talking about capping your _upload_ speed, not your _download_ speed. adsl is usually assymetric and you will have much less upload bandwith then the 2mbit. So you have to limit upload to approx 80% of your available speed in order not to chocke your line. Ciao, Alex

That's what I did - downed it to 5kbps as well and still seemed to lock up the ports. In the end and ftp's cd and dvd iso's off a mirror in just on 11 hours...

Hi M.Blackmore, whats' "the smoothie box"? A router? If so, did you forward the port(s)? -- mdc

Same here, i quit with Ktorrent and try other solutions. Ktorrent stinks a download speed of 0.4 bkps with a lot of stops in between. Ben

KTorrent is not a matured program, and I wonder why a better one wasn't included in 10.0. It seems to download slower than Azureus and it fucks up when I try to save a file on a VFAT partition... only, it fucks up AFTER downloading the whole 3 GB =( /Benjamin

Yeah, sure.. I just threw in a few f-words... but basically all I said was that KTorrent is not matured. You interpreted me wrongly, dude =) I have come to terms with the program in the mean time... it just sits there in my system tray nicely and quietly, and since I stopped choosing to my vfat, it hasn't complained. And what do you know!? It's double the joy if I click a new torrent.. it'll simply open up a new instance of itself instead of using the existing one. /Benjamin

KTorrent shipped in SUSE Linux 10 is _release candidate_ version so it has some bugs.
