O.K....finally in the 21st century with broadband and I'm beginning my learning of Bit Torrent. Gordon hooked me up with a DAD account, and I'm going crazy D/L the recent Dylan tour, using the Azureus client. A couple of questions:
- My download speed seems o.k....I can usually get a full show in about 90 minutes. My upload speed is attrocious, sometimes at 1-3kBs, and even goes to zero when I'm done downloading. With DAD you've got to carry a decent share ratio or you can't D/L. Is there a way to speed up the upload?
- The little face icon stays yellow the entire download, which according to the wikiAzureus means I'm not allowing people to connect, due to something call NAT. I mentions changing ports, but doesn't say how to do that. Any ideas?
I'm just learning this stuff and feel like a rooky. That's not a bad thing, but I want to do the right thing with the uploads etc.
Any hints would be appreciate.
Mike
