Re: [OK] Cox doesn't mess with Bittorrent traffic, does it?
all i can say with certainty is this. My torrents download much slower on my Cox 12/1 connection than they did on my AT&T 6/1 FTTP connection. I've tried changing clients, made sure my ports are forwarded properly, changed routers...It's a mystery.

1 edit | they have other 3rd parties who monitor the traffic. why you need to protect yourself.
greed is a very powerful tool and why to this day i don't buy any cd's.

On Cox I can never break 500KB/sec no matter how many torrents I have running, or how good the sources are. |

I regularly get over a 1MB/sec on my torrents with Premiere.
Anyone else in your area getting the same results? |
