Hello,

When kTorrent is up my internet even when I am using 10kbs up/10kbs down bandwidth.

How can I setup kTorrent so that my internet doesn't freeze when kTorrent is up?

I would like to download and surf the net at the same time.

Thanks

Check what setting you've chosen for 'max connections per download'. Most people set this setting way too high, 25 should normally be more then enough.

If you have a stable bandwidth you could check the upload and downloadspeed by transferring data to and from your ISP homepage.
Generally speaking you can take these measurements as 85% upload and 90% download in your client.

If above doesn't work, be sure that protocol encryption is enabled. If it is and you're still having problems, you might have a ISP that is throttling your whole internet connection. Basicly you're doomed if this happen to be reality.

How would I know what speed data is being transferred via me and the ISP home page? Additionally how would I upload data to my ISP homepage?

I do not see an option for protocol encryption in my ktorrent preferences.

With 25 connections per torrent, how many torrents should be allowed to run if I have a cable connection?

Thanks

Our limits are in KB/s (bytes not bits).

How much bandwith do you get from your ISP ?
