1.5 Mbps is either 96Kbps or 150Kbps up. The 96 type was being phased out by Bezeq a few months back so no one should be using it anymore. I'm using transmission as my torrent client, and I've noticed that when I use a total upload cap of 6KBps, the actual bandwidth usage on the network is closer to 15KBps (which is about 120Kbps and is ok for 150Kbps upstream if you're not doing anything else on the internet). Ktorrent also misses a bit when you set the upstream cap, but not by as much. I haven't tried rtorrent but it may behave closer to transmission then to ktorrent. I suggest you just decrease your upstream throttle until you get good behavior instead of trying to calculate it. I'm currently using a limit of 4KBps up and decreasing it further to 2KBps if I want to use other upstream guzzling software. You probably also want to experiment with different torrent clients to find out which is behaving better for your usage (have you tried to original bittorrent.com client ? I liked the version 4 better then the current one, but it is a very good client. -- Oded ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
