Question Nature of the Beast???

Being new here like to say hello...
I do have some questions:
1) is it normal for u/L speed to be higher then D/L speed??
I have set U/L to 1 and 1 per person with speed capped at 12KB, but still my D/L seems to be lagging. I can start a D/L at great speeds up to 60KB`s at times only to have it degrade to 10-12KB`s. Is this because of increased usage though the host? Even when I show 80-120 KB`S avialibe on the host screen with all the host only using 10-20KB`S my D/L`s will still be in the teens to low 20`s.
2)This is on the @Home network with the registry hacked for more speed, 300-350 D/L speed on a good site. Will disconnecting from the host after a D/L has started help or hinder??
3) I am currently sharing close to 2 gig`s, would share more but my 2nd hardDrive is setup for the share, and it`s YEP you guessed it only a 2gigger...I have noticed that once connected I will have close to 100 hits a min, trying to D/L from me, Are all these hits slowing my D/L down???
4)I have recieved this "error message " the last 2 D/L`s usually about mid way " Sock_error Event:InvalidKey 35603. As far as I can see it hasn`t affected the D/L, the movie quality was ok, just don`t know what it means????
I have tried alot of the other programs, BUT I like Gnotella the best. I can set for a speed I want search scroll til I see a file that says avial. click on it and most times it will connect right up and start D/L`ing.


I moved this from the Gnutella forums section, since it mainly pertains to the use of Gnotella..
