Within no more than 5 minutes during a download, i can have the following:
Receiving from 8 hosts / 90 Kb/sec;
Waiting for busy host;
Waiting in line pos.1;
Impossible to receive;
Receiving from 1 host / 1 Kb/sec;
.............

This happens regardless to the host connection speed, file quality, initial hosts number, file size or type, day or night time.

Connection is turbocharged; uploads almost always run at the allowed top speed; about 500 files shared; cable/dsl connection; ultrapeer inactive.

My folder is full of incomplete files, and the the average dwnld times seem to be raising more and more (currently ab. 1Hr for an mp3 song and 10 days for a 650Mb movie).

Could anyone explain or hopefully help ?
