Re: Less packet loss when torrenting... Wut?

pip VM ip's arent normal dynamic tho they are more sticky. They tend to only change in one of the following 2 scenarios.

1 - result of work done by VM which forces user onto different dhcp pool. Me personally this is extrememly rare. Granted it could be more frequent for others.
2 - If changing the equipment connected to modem.

I have had my current ip since mid summer.

my guess is the high loss is caused by errors, and torrenting for some reason is reducing those errors.
