The download speed is quite slow but that just means you can have finished uploading to 2.0 by the time you've finished downloading.

A long time torrent experet said I should try downloading with bitcomet and uploading with Utorrent. I tried this, after using only Utorrent for about a week. Suddenly my download speeds with bitcomet were good again (coincidence?)

I reccommend using Utorrent ONLY for a week or so, then uploading with Utorrent and downloading with bitcomet (only using one program at a time of course!) I download with bitcomet at night (when I get......
