What I don't understand is the fact that this seems to limit download
speed, rather than upload speed. I'm behind an Internet "gateway", but
my upload speed still manages to saturate my link. My download speed,
OTOH, seems to consistently run at about half of my upload speed.
Anybody got an explanation for this phenomenon?
I have seen that problem on my dsl line if upload gets saturated. I have
to throttle my bittorrent client to about 3/4 the rated speed to prevent
weird problems like that.
Azureus will let you throttle upload speeds, as will the standard
bittorrent client.
