Simply put each of those connections which includes attempted connections that fail both in and out, will have a big overhead, not only on your internet, but also your router and computer networking capacity.

Yeah I appreciate that Rob, but I would never even try to play online while a torrent was in progress, that is impossible. Even another PC doing gaming and another just browsing I can tell the difference straight away. Look up and you can see how dire the speed was last night, it was less than 1 a minute before that snapshot.

Thanks but I don't really use the old P2P and when I do it is fine just out of the box. My issue is that it kills the internet when in operation, and nowhere near maxed out, it's not really an issue as such more an observation
