So what works best for you, given that MWEB have now limited the max simultaneous connections to 100 per user? http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php/221840-MWEB-Uncapped-Subscribers-Feedback?p=5116923&viewfull=1#post5116923

Generally the opportune time for p2p has been after midnight:
This is typically 10kb/s in peak times, 40kb/s off-peak and 150kb/s after midnight.

But this seems to be no more; my midnight speeds are around <64kBps . Is it because of the 100 connections limit or is there another underlying reason?

My settings:

Global max number of connections: 100
Max number connected peers per torrent: 45
Number of upload slots per torrent: 1
Max number active torrents: 3
Max number active downloads: 1
 
Even 150KB/s on a 4Mbps line is bad. Doesn't "torrent availability" have an effect on speeds?
