Thread: Minimum requirement to download Torrents

I have never downloaded any torrent material, and am not sure what the minimum hardware requirements are. I am currently using a CAT-CDMA phone connection at 115 kbps, which I fiqure is probably way to slow. I am led to believe, that I can buy a device from CAT that will let me download at 3 mbps, for about 6000 baht. Knowing what I do about CAT, this 3 meg will most likely be much slower. As I am out in the bush here in northern Thailand, the only connection that I can get is a wireless one from CAT. One thing in my favor is that I am less than a 1/2 km from the nearest antenna, so I always get a good strong connection.

My question is, what is the minimum transfer speed that I need to be able to download movies and music??

Thanks for any help that you can provide.
