I changed my port to what you said, found some real files, updated my java, found out other people can download from me, and restarted my computer, but still my downloads never get over 3/4 kbps, and most of the time sit at 0 or won't even begin. Anymore suggestions? Also, I connect to my modem through USB, and I have no idea who, or if anyone here on base has anything to do with the cable, I don't think anyone does. So charter is known to shape bandwidth to p2p, is there anyway i can work around that? Would torrents also be effected by this, I tried that recently as well without much luck.
