Port Forward

Was trying to download something using uTorrent and it seemed very slow. I am using Grameen Phone Edge and i was wondering if i could open a port to speed up downloading. I don't know whether its possible for this sort of connection or not.

Edge is slower than some of the broadband connections.

Among most people I know I have the most monthly value-for-money broadband from Agni. Tk.1500 a month, and 32KB/s (256kbps) during daytime, and 64KB/s (512kbps) from 8pm till morning. This has a monthly 6GB Upload/Download limit.

However Agni gives 2 home connections that are 1Mbps (90-140KB/s) during night times.... as a side gift for corporate users. Now those are broadband in Bangladesh! I dont think they have upload/download limits either.

EDGE works on avg at 12-16KB/s afaik.
