For some reason stupid reason, torrents go incredibly slow at my house (yes, I've got the ports forwarded on my router)

My isp must block some ports.

same. saw the 300 mb version but want the 700mb for keeps.

damn that Atom is a sweet car! forget lotus elise as a weekend car....this is the perfect weekend car


is the link for the torrent file dead? i can't seem to get it to download
 
The download on the torrent is working fine for me in Azureus. Freegeeks for e1337!
 
Awesome ep so far (I'm about 30 minutes into it), but what the heck is the track they were playing while they threw the G-wagon around that quarry? I've heard it before and can't remember the title, it's driving me nuts! It's about 13 minutes into the ep...

Will someone please host the 700meg version?

It wont download for me at all, and I want to be able to put it on my ftp server.
 
Mine was done a while ago...

What's your setup?

I think I remember you having problems pretty much every week. Can you download other torrents ok? I'd host it for you, but I only have 400mb of webspace.
 
Thanks for the 700MB torrent TuffGuy & freegeeks :beer:😀
edit: bloody hell this torrent is slow, too many leechers with slow upload speeds :|

Well yeah, I'm sorry for having crappy upload speed like most people out there 🙁
This is the only BT I have going on now and let it use all free upload capacity I have. My upload = download right now.

Yeah, I'm doing fine now. I just wasn't very appreciative when I was uploading at 90 KBps and downloading at 10... It eventually evened out though, so all is good 🙂

I've got 512/512 connection.

I'm trying to get this on my laptop, which is behind a router. The router has port forwarding for bittorrent, for my laptop's ip address.

It just goes at like 2 or so throughout the whole download.

I think my ISP (mvtvwireless) blocks or limits a lot of ports.
 
Just finished watching the 300MB cap (thanks, guys!) and I'm dying to know the song used near the beginning of the Atom segment. It's the same song used in a recent Nintendo commercial, Donkey Kong for the DS or something, maybe. In the 300MB cap, it begins playing just before the 48:00 mark, 47:55 or so, I think, and plays for almost a minute. It's the techno-ish song. I've liked it ever since I saw the DS commercial and hearing it again in this Top Gear episode made me remember how bad I want it.

Edit: Just found it. It's in the DKC 2 for GBA commercial, not DS. It's called "Disco Science" by Mirwais if anyone's interested.

If your ISP is blocking it, try BitTornado. It assigns a random port between 10000 and 60000.
 
I hae 5GB of bandwidth left and 400MB of space...LMK if that can be of some use...maybe we can split up the file using winrar or something
