Subject: downgrades download bandwidth without notice

Date: Mon, 6 Aug 2007 16:19:51 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: amule
Version: 2.1.3-3+b1
Severity: minor

I had previously setup amule with 8 and 32 kbit/s for UL and DL. I
changed the DL bandwidth to be 128, but noticed after a while that amule
stalled around the same total DL bandwidth as previously.

In the Preferences, I discovered the bandwidth had been reduced back to
32. I figured I had to put at least 16 for UL to be able to have 128 as
DL.

Why is that and why do I had to notice the problem and guess the
solution by myself?

It's called "fair share": you can download at +inf speed and give
1kbps in upload only :)

Now amule is clearer when setting UP/DL speeds,
auto-incrementing/limiting the values while inserting them. Hence
closing.
