Hi,

I've moved out into the arse end of nowhere and now I'm out of range of ADSL :( However I've started using a satellite service from SkyDsl which works on a combination of dial-up for the upload path and 1mb to 4mb satellite for the download path via an installed HTTP proxy.

Trouble is I can't get my bittorrent client (currently Azureus) working with this set up; its either horribly slow and using the dial-up line up and down or just won't work at all.

Anyone got any experience of using a bittorrent client on a similar set-up or who knows a client that works well via a HTTP proxy?

Thanks

Sorry for the late reply, but if you get a chance to read this, try using HTTP-Tunnel to tunnel your Bittorrent traffic through the HTTP Proxy.
