The terryfing wait...

Ok the title is exaggerated....its just something to put you guys who have read my previous sombre and dark blog in a different mood. Ok no it's not any experience i my life, and no it's not a tale but my inner anger and rage towards the world's slowest torrent download....Yup...

To sum up I like and hate torrenting...Now why I like torrenting..first i can get stuff that i want and i hate it because all the downloads are so darn bloody slow..at about an abyssmal 1kb/s. OK that is kind of like the extreme abridged version of it. First i'm amedical student and to maintain my sanity almidest all the clinical practises, studying, PBL, assesments and the impending EOS.... i need a break, a time out kind of like an activity where i can relax besides embracing music.

I've been like trying to search around over the past few days on a solution to my predicament and all i get is, change the port and put in any port number between 6881 -6889 and i tried, it din work....I dunno why may be because i'm in a different part of the world or because im no computer geek or just plain dumb. Now i just do not want to bother about it anymore. Well i don't always get 1kb download..it fluctuates up and down though the best average speed i get is 34kb/s which is pretty darn good


But it makes me wonder how long can my 800mhz pc and ADSL router handle the daily 12 hr torture of downloading....ok I shall see.
