Can we stop uploading when we BT?作者: SweetLemon 時間: 2010-5-1 12:48 PM
After I finished download, I will stop the task of 上传.
Yeah, yeah, I know this is selfish of me. As long as I am download I will allow upload.作者: SweetLemon 時間: 2010-5-3 06:59 PM
That's why Astro TV is very upset with Malaysian who download instead of just pay extra to view the same series the same time as HongKong ma...作者: norman.ho 時間: 2010-5-3 07:09 PM
I thought the whole idea of BT was to spread the torrent title around as much as possible so as to minimize the copyright violation liability. This practice works very well in US and Europe. However, some of the big ISP companies, especially those who owns some of the broadband infrastructure, they would count upload as part of the bandwidth quota; while the other ISP only count the download bandwidth. They are the ones who encourage BT, I think.作者: norman.ho 時間: 2010-5-3 07:17 PM
I suppose one way of getting around the liability problem is use a generic Torrent Client, and after self seeding, check if there are enough seeds spread around, then remove the self seeding torrent from the originating machine. This makes the tracking of the original seed much harder.作者: SweetLemon 時間: 2010-5-3 07:21 PM
Why - you are a real expert in this matter. haha...作者: norman.ho 時間: 2010-5-3 07:23 PM

Here is a cut and paste from uTorren forum for some torrent user tips:
I know that most of you guys could run circles around my level of expertise but, in the great spirit of sharing and caring, I would like to pass on my recent experience regarding throttling.
Since I swapped over from AOL to Talk Talk I have noticed that uTorrent has slowed significantly.
Yes I do know that AOL is now Talk Talk. But like I said, bittorent speeds were no problem until I went to Talk Talk. The Talk Talk tarrif I have is the one with 40gig ceiling and then pay for Boost.
Anyway, I got fed up with this and did some trawling with Google.
First thing I found out was that I should check the encryption settings in uTorrent. By default these should be enabled. Mine were disabled! Can't figure out how that happened.
I enabled them. I then shut-down uTorrent for a bit. I started it up again. Within half-an-hour I noticed that I had a lot more activity on my bittorrents than I had before. Things were looking up.
That was fine in itself but the speed was still low. I looked at the various websites and found something regarding Port Forwarding. uTorrent randomises its selection of port to forward. This is to help keep the seed-streams from prying ISP eyes. However it uses only one port. I downloaded a well known program. I then used it to manually set the port to 9 different ports. That sped things up a lot. I am guessing that setting 9 different ports, widened the amount of data that could travel through my computer, while at the same time, making it harder for my ISP to nail-down which port I was streaming through. Add the encryption as well and that seems to have tipped the scales in my favour.
For now. If things get bogged down again I can alway -
* Use that handy randomise button in uTorrent to make them loose the scent
That is - Options>Preferences>Connection (Then click RANDOM PORT followed by APPLY)
* Use the PFConfig application to set uTorrent up with another batch of different ports to stream through :-)
Thats all folks.作者: ysl2020 時間: 2010-5-8 01:34 PM
