Ah, finally … for weeks my family was at a loss why we suddenly can’t download stuff. I mean we can, but it’s slooooow. Now the speeds have gone back to normal. Somewhat. It’s very unstable, however. One moment it can be 40kpbs, and the next moment it’s 0Kpbs. Now I’m in Starbucks, and I’m trying this new bittorrent client called uTorrent. The folks at Lowyat recommended it, so I got curious. It is working like a charm … the download speeds are like 50kpbs at one point. I suppose for those who downloads at speeks like 100kpbs above (a friend of mine downloads at 600. WTF??I can’t even reach 80!) this is like – what’s the big deal? Well, back at my parents’ home, we never reach such exalted speeds. ;)

I’m wondering whether I should tweak my speeds in my kelana jaya home. I’ll probably try utorrent over there and see whether there’s any marked diff in the speeds or not. I mean … what a dream to download one anime episode in 1.5hours. Ahhhh. (The best I could aim for is 3 to 4 hours).
