On what ports Tony?  Here I have 6969 which AIUI is the tracker port, 
forwarded & cleared all the way through, with 7000 and 36000 to 37000 for use 
as data, all setup and port forwarded to this box from dd-wrt.  Currently 
making about 80kB on a 1.5mb link, seems to have leveled off at that average, 
with about 37 to 40kB up.  Half the normal dl speed in other words.
