| 817151 | 2009-10-05 22:17:00 | Once I was downloading a video file off bit torrent and it was going slow (about 10-15kbps) and I was being impatient so I turned off DHT (I have no idea what it does) and bravo, the video was maxing out at around 60kbps (my max broadband speed). I'm not sure if doing this is advisable but it worked for me :). | davidmmac (4619) | ||

DHT is good when a public tracker is down, allows you to download "trackerless" Not good if you're on a private tracker though... |

I do remember having a yellow exclamation mark at the bottom of the window of the client (BitTorrent) which asked me to check my firewall. I did and made sure BitTorrent was unblocked. Didn't work, but no matter, the file finished :). |
