ok thanks, trying that. previously my upload rate was unlimited - it was going up at around 30KB/s - but that shouldn't effect download speed should it?
It does & should. If your upload speed comes near to your line capacity, your download will starve.
Thanks for clearing that up. I have tried the advice above, using both btdownloadcurses (which is what i was using originally) and azureus, to no effect. I am back to btdownloadcurses, using the following options: btdownloadcurses.py --max_uploads 4 --max_upload_rate 10 SUSE-10.0-CD-OSS-i386-GM.torrent Patrick mentioned "w/max 4 connects" - does this mean I should be using --max_connections 4 ? Thanks for your help, all posters Regards Craig
