Re: Look who's talking

I'd love to hear an explanation on how Skype managed to max out a 1.5 Mbps (T1) connection. Something else had to be going on.

Yes, it's P2P. Yes, your node can help firewalled connections connect. I've never caught it using more than 10 KB/s when idle.

I wish I could give you the explanation but I am no expert so i won't pretend to be. What I do know is that if skype is running and I check the traffic graph of my router (only me online with no other programs running) it is maxed. As soon as I close skype there is no traffic. This has been replicated many times on different computers.

I'm open minded, but I just don't understand why that would be. Is there any chance that traffic graph is dynamic?
