    I currently have both Smart 4Mb and UPC 20Mb. The difference in torrents is startling.

    Although the UPC connection is six times faster in upload bandwidth it never even reaches the speed of the Smart connection.
    For instance currently uploads with UPC are 8.7kB compared with Smart at 26kB.
    Much a similar story with downloads with UPC at an average 1Mb and Smart usually at the full 4Mb.

    I was going to get rid of Smart but after comparing like for like there is just no contest.
    Failed to load the poll.
