    You totally outdated me in technology


    Optware sounds very cool. I'm a big torrent fan.

    Make sure you take advantage of QoS, which prioritizes bandwidth, especially if you have multiple people torrenting in the house at the same time.

    I had problems with my old roommates hogging the bandwidth and not wanting to play fair and limit the speeds in their client, so I had to take matters in to my own hands.

    If you have problems, start a thread and PM it to me, I can help with all thing bittorrent, especially in a shared house with bandwidth hogs

    I really appreciate your help. My roommates usually watch movies on video streaming websites, while I rather download aXXo quality ones and save them on my computer.

    Once I buy it, I will try to see if it has a setting for limiting bandwidth when everyone's connected and downloading stuffs.
