OK - ADSL Connection.
I networked a mac and a PC, both with static IP allocated, No Probs.
I Gave BIT TORNADO and BTDOWNLOAD GUI access and server rights in Zone alarm.
I attempted to forward ports 10000-10004 to the PC running Tornado - i think this was successful but not sure as I could not find instructions on line for my conexant ar302 modem. (old model adsl modem I am using because my adsl modem supplied by isp has port forwarding options removed)
I am currently testing a torrent file, taken from a top 100 list so it would not be "dead"
My Status Light is green.
I am DL at 3 to 5 kB/s
I am UL at 3 to 4 kB/s - does this mean my port forwarding was successful?
share rating 0.8
red.
connected to 21 peers -( total speed 186kB/s)
connected to 10 seeds; also seeing 4,999 distributed copies.
settings for "automatic"
Does this suggest all is correct? Why am my up and downloads all under 10 kb/s? - this is telling me it will take 100 hours for a 1gig file!
What else do I have to adjust? Or is it all good. I am new to torrent.
