Upload speed

(1/4) > >>

Slysoft:
I have noticed that for most people, whenever they show their internet speeds, their download speed is much higher than their upload speed. Mine however seems to be backwards...



Is there a reason for this? Is there a way to flip flop it? I know the downloaders must be rejoicing... but I would prefer to download at 2mb/s also :P

suhaib:
Well,
as far as i can see the torrent you are downloading
has got more leechers than seeders !
so that might be the reason ...


does that happen to all of the torrents you download
or just this one ?

Slysoft:
It's on everything but this is the only one I happened to be downloading at the moment. The only time upload is lower is if I'm the only leecher or if the number of seeders completely overwhelms the leechers.

Mag-X:
That is weird that you ISP does that, but I wouldn't worry about it. When I upgraded from 15Mb/s down to 25Mb/s down, I didn't notice any difference in download speeds with bittorrent. The other seeders just can't send the information fast enough. On the other hand, that upgrade took me from 5Mb/s up to 15Mb/s up, and that made a huge difference. I wish I had 30Mb/s up.

Lupin:
I prefer your situation. I rather have upload speed > download.
