Rep Power: 1 | I agreewith Superprash. I think download speed are not effected by upload speed but yes you will be billed for your uploaded content. |

| Platinum Member  | upload speed do affect download speed.e.g.whenever you download something a small amount of data is uploaded too.now if you set your upload rate to max then download will get affected because then it has to compete for upload bandwidth.it is recommended that you set max upload rate to 80% of your max achievable upload rate in uTorrent.

Rep Power: 1 | I dont think upload speed affect download speed. Though I could be wrong. I am on a UL750 Plan and I was seeding a torrent (100% completed with lots of leechers) at high upload speed. I left the upload limit to zero & its speed was ~ 29 KBPS. at the same time I was downloading a file from rapidshare and download speed was ~30 KBPS |

Rep Power: 5 | Upload speed does not affect download. Upload and Download are not linked. They are asynchronous (and that is why it is called ADSL). Sometimes torrents work on the principle of upload/download ratio. So if you are just a leacher (downloader), the tracker degrades the speed. A ratio of 0.6 or above work well in case of such torrents. The only worry is during real time usage (non-free time). Because usage is calculated as Download+Upload, having high upload during non-free time will increase your usage.
