Well, you know, it did break, otherwise you wouldn't have noticed it had stopped working

By that I meant "My PC/Hardware" not the system in general. Yeah something broke, the question is what?

VM are throttling Utorrent
|
They aren't touching uTorrent. It is and has been running fine for me since my issues. I was just grabbing something at over 600k/s - not that many seeds/Sat night, that is decent.
Either Graf is right (and I aint saying he isn't) read his stuff. Or I am right and they where running a test on Tracker throttling, unless that can't possibly be done, and if someone tells me how/why it can't be done then I will shut my big fat anti-razor gob

Re: uTorrent
+1 on what kingbuston said, I'm currently downloading something at 250KB/sec(ish), and only the speed of seeders is limiting it, as it peaked at about 400KB/sec for a couple of minutes earlier on.

Re: uTorrent
They appear to be throttling anything torrent related. I spent all evening pre-downloading the next WoW patch at 6kbps.. Predicted time: 2 weeks, and yes, background throttling was turned off, meaning it should have been full speed, and yes, there were plenty of peers.
Yet when I told the downloader to use a direct connection and not peer to peer, the download rate skyrocketted to over 100kbps, and sustained that for the 10 minutes the download took.
It really does seem to me, to be some kind of generic thottle on torrents in some areas.

Re: uTorrent
Cases where people are losing all internet connectivity are not throttling. Either modem or router can't handle the number of flows BT sets up.
The WoW downloader sucks, especially as it can be set to only allow upload when the computer is idle, makes the speeds pretty unpleasant. If they are sucky it's best to restart the downloader and hope for a better set of peers.

I just mean it isn't uTorrent specific, it will do it whatever client you use.

You don't loose internet connectivity, I always had Internet, it was Torrents only and only from specific Trackers.

If it is doing now - http://www.linuxmint.de/downloads.html - grab Main Edition LinuxMint-6.iso.torrent and see how fast it runs. If that is slow, then maybe they are throttling you. I can get that at over 1Mb/s (it completes before it peaks) and with my upload set at like 60/65Kb/s
