But my internet connection slows to a crawl, even when my Bittorrent is not uploading very much (~10 KB/sec)
I must have a max of over 32 KB/s, because I have had combined uploads of 60+ KB/s. I will try capping my upload to 10 KB/s but I still do not understand why I never experienced this before because in the past when I only had one computer directly connected to the modem the internet never slowed down like this in the years I remember, save the times when I was really really heavily downloading.
