Hey I have a question regarding bittorrent. Im trying to download an extremely popular file off of ABC. Allthough it is going fast, there are 670 seeds, yet it only lets me connect and download to 30 or less. Is there any client that will let me see and attempt to download from all 670 peers?

[cpugeniusmv]

it would probably overload your connection.

Nah, how would I do it though?

[shawners]

i wonder if you can add them to sygate or peerguardian to block the slow sending seeds and only connect to faster ones.

For anyone still interested I found a solution. Shareazza. Although I don't like the client, it is the only Bittorrent client out there that uses every single source. Flying at 400 k/bs.

what usually occurs with bt transfers is that it starts out slow and i mean slow lol then like a few minutes later it starts finding more leechs/seeders slowly yet effectively and it never fails to max out my connection. Last night i had one bt download running and it had like 4k leechers and like 600 seeds by the time the transfer got really rolling(5 minutes or so after I started it) it was already going above 200 kb/s. Instead of shareaza possibly check out Burst! (http://krypt.dyndns.org:81/torrent/).good day.
