i am using p2p programs(azureus, but i am actually confused about all that. i got 2 questions, and will be glad if someone can answer them.
first question: i know that user can download files from other users and other users can download files from the user. but if i download files from u, u download em from someone else, so there should be one person who downloading himself, can i be such a person? i know it is kinda confusing (what i wrote, but... if u can help)
and other question if i will increase my upload speed in options of bittorent client(i use azureus) will my download speed increase too, cause i tried it once and it increased, but maybe it was just luck...

So....u want to upload a torrent, or be the host?. (kinda confused;-) as for ur u/l and d/l speed settings, they should be set to what or a little more than ur connection allows u.

U can do speed test here: http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/

...and it will tell u what ur u/l and d/l capabilities are.

@creaky, new sig banner?, looks nice ;-D

i dont know
if i am host my speed should be faster cause i have 384 kb/sec
and if i will upload it max 100kb/sec average 20kb/sec
so if host is faster how can i be a host (the one whos downloading himself)

A host is someone uploading a torrent. On most (good) sites u need to have a 10 MBit upload bandwith in order to be one.

so i guess i will not be a host (i don't have 10 mb bandwidth :(
by the way is it true that if u have dsl, bittorent clients will choke your download speed or ur d/l speed will be low or something, i read it on some forums - is it true?
thanks for reply
