I know about the advantages of bittorrent for broadband users with underutilized bandwidth. But I'm on dialup. My bandwidth gets saturated with a simple "wget -c linux.iso" (a 52K modem that feels more like 45K). So are there any disadvantages to using bittorent with a plain dialup line?You will never finish the download. Your connection is too slow.
I understand that bittornado is better than torrent?So these apps provide no advantage over conventional dial-up download speeds?
Thanks for any advice. Regards, David.
