Ezza Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Right having done some research on my upload speed (256k) i should be uploading at a rate of 28kb (256/8 - 4) However, would this still be the case if i was sharing a connection with my brother? At the moment i have my max upload set at 22kb, should this be increased? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soraiya Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Your designated Upload Speed should remain at 80% of your max upload. If you lower the speed, then proportionately you'll also receive lower download capability. If you do wish to share a connection with your brother (while i.e. your brother plays an Online PC game like CounterStrike), then you can either try a traffic-shaping software, one known as cFos Speed - Site But either way, it's best if your brother finishes playing his online game, then turn on your torrent downloads/uploads, because ultimately both you and him are sharing a common bandwidth pool.

Ezza Posted September 4, 2006 Author Share Posted September 4, 2006 So basically 28kb should be set regardless of me sharing my connection. It the case of pausing the downloads when i want to game :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
