Am i just completly stupid..... I tried to slide the upload scale but it only went up to almost 7. Im sorry i dont quite understand

Well, if you haven't set your speed correctly then that could happen.
I believe that you must have left it at 56k Modem. You need to change it to at least Cable/DSL.

I NEED HELP..
 

umm...im still not sure how to check my upload bandwidth....
i have a 256 Kb connection, which means i get speeds of about 25-30 Kbps...is this normal or can i download faster?

sharockinon, your speed is fine. As for the upload bandwidth, if I remember correctly, it is a fraction of the download bandwidth. I can't, however, remember what fraction that is.
You'll need to run some tests. Try Googling quite simply for "upload test"

You can do a speed test at the link below.

hi
i have a 512kb cable connection and i get around 50 KB but sometime when im not connected to alot of hosts my speed hits 40 KB and drops down to about 20 then back up 30 is this ab-normal?

and also when im download and get upto "downloading from 10 hosts" is it possible to get more hosts than that?if yes , how?

thanks, anyone?

Your speed dropping like that isn't abnormal: it can be due to one (or more) of your uploaders establishing another connection with another user.
As for the "10 hosts" thing, I think that this is the limit.

Hi there
I am brand new here and to the whole file-sharing thing.
I'm not too hot on the old techie front either and want to ask what is possibly a really stupid question:

What does T1 and T3 mean.....?

This may not be the thread to ask this (maybe not even the right forum....) but I'm taking my chances.
