At what point does it start dying. Do yo have many forced resume files? The reason I ask this is b/c these files have the potential (if thre's many of them) to affect your conection quality. They will all initially queue up, take turns at searching for resources every few mins, etc. All this constant searching puts stress on upld capacity. Just b/c your connection is in the red doesn't mean you necessarily can't continue dwnlding though!
