Upload v. download speed

Post by abel »   0 likes

I´m sorry for stupid beginner´s question, but how come that my upload speed is much higher (sometimes 4 - 5x) that the download speed? I do use eMule 0.48a, no firewall, no router afaik (but may be provider´s), and I let my PC to run sometimes weeks long without any break. Still I note download speeds rarely higher than 10 KB/s with simultaneous upload speeds round 50 Kb/s. I am on cable network, and I share a lot, as far my HDD space allows it. So what might be the reason? Sorry if this question was already posed and answered somewhere here, I didn´t find any clue.
