The Reverend Posted 30 March 2009 Share Posted 30 March 2009 That literally took about 15 minutes, all 800mb worth. Impressed. Even with a shedload of seeders, its still fast as fook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hairy Posted 30 March 2009 Share Posted 30 March 2009 That literally took about 15 minutes, all 800mb worth.Impressed. Even with a shedload of seeders, its still fast as fook. The seeders are the number of peers (people) who have completed the download of the of the file so the more seeders the better the speed should be. Its the leechers you need to be aware of as they haven't completed the download yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daggers Posted 30 March 2009 Share Posted 30 March 2009 That's what I get pretty much all the time during the day with BT. It only starts to pick up around 11pm Sort out my broadband. You know Branson, he's like your best mate now - do it. Will owt happen to me? One day you will start to notice hairs under your arms and around your sexual organ.

Its the leechers you need to be aware of as they haven't completed the download yet. Yeah I know Hairy, I didnt make that very clear. What I meant was, even with the large number of seeders (meaning it should be fast), 15 minutes is still crazy fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynny Posted 30 March 2009 Share Posted 30 March 2009 I just checked mine and, you're correct, the maximum is 50. I just set it to 99999999 What is bad about having loads or something? I've got mine on about 300. I don't know, might be old slow computers being crap with it or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexikokopops Posted 31 March 2009 Share Posted 31 March 2009 I am currently using Bitcomet. I have no idea about torrents really, except how to get them up and running. Is Bitcomet good or bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres nothing wrong with it from a users point of view but some trackers dont like it as it allows you to post the torrent on other trackers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoneDog Posted 31 March 2009 Share Posted 31 March 2009 What is a tracker? I've been wondering that for ages. I never get a torrent off mininova if it has one of the red p's with a tracker thing on it! Should I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never get a torrent off mininova if it has one of the red p's with a tracker thing on it! Should I? The red P's mean, the torrent is from a Private tracker. ie, You must register with that tracker to download it. A tracker is basically a server that you download your torrent file from.

fox123 Posted 31 March 2009 Share Posted 31 March 2009 I use BitTornado for my Torrents, I like it as it has traffic lights to tell you if it's a good or dead torrent. I get alot of mine through isohunt, but have recently started using ahashare.com downloaded some great quality films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertine Posted 31 March 2009 Author Share Posted 31 March 2009 Never use anything bar PirateBay or Mininova. If something's not on there, I look on torrentz.com, which searchs all the major torrent sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure they'll catch Libertine before me and he'll be kind enough to warn us all using his 30 minute internet access from inside Welford Road.
