Hi I am using Bit Torrent software which I am paying for. I am downloading movies and on the chart as being a first timer I was wantiing help in defining what this programming means. Seeds? Peers? Downspeed? Upspeed? ETA? Ratio? I think I may know about the speed and that but can anybowdy help me in detail so atleast I know what is happening. Thank you. Tony
Seeds are people with 100% of the thing your downloading. Peers are the people who dont have 100% (you still download/upload to them) Downspeed/Upspeed is your donwload/upload rate ETA: Estimated Time of Arrival Ratio is the download/upload ratio. Sometimes, if you have a poor ratio (ie you've taken lots more data than you have shared) your downspeed is capped.
