It takes a while to settle in. When you first start, it has only found a few peers, and has a low data rate. After it gets going, it tends to speed up (of course there are also complications like not having open ports that allow others to download from you, which makes everyone hate you and not feed you much data :-). But even with my cable modem, it usually takes 4 or 5 hours. The data rate at work was much higher than the best I've ever seen with a cable modem. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
