I will have my Qtel Adsl connexion ready by tomorrow, so can you please tell me which torrents clients and sources you are using, their settings, the average download speed you reach?
let's share our experiences on downloading!

Thanks

Google torrents and you'll get all the info you need. I find uTorrent is best for PC and Azureus for MAC. Google both of these where you'll find heaps of info. on how to get the best settings and speed!!

torrenting is not illegal.

Vista for example has torrenting built in. So does the Opera browser.

You don't blame the system, you blame the people who abuse it.

You can't say the internet is illegal because there's porn, it's the people who put the porn online :P

Anyway, I use uTorrent.

On my 2mb connection I get around 2.8mb download.

You ask: By the way what is the actual position of Qtel towards illegal downloading

Common cense tells me:

If QTEL has not blocked those web sites, I'm not saying Is right or wrong, I keep my neutrality on that issue. Then keep on doing what ever you are doing with torrents.

Know by posting the topic in public forum and QL uses the portal of Qtel, then you are risking the possibilities for them blocking them. They do monitor this public web site.

What about that one?

I read it has a small footprint and uses less ressources for a faster download speed.How can we open the ports on the router?

I always USED to use them, but QTel is now tracking the IP Addresses of the seeders, So I suggest you not to and to watch out... ***DO NOT USE ISOHUNT or THEPIRATEBAY in Qatar due to the leechers' API ID. They will snif your connection to 50 kb/s***
