utorrent setting : 1536/8 x 0.8 = 153KB/s (global max download rate)
512/8 x 0.8 = 51KB/s (global max upload rate)

If wrong pls help..

thanks

To convert your speeds from Kbps (KiloBITS) to kB/s (KiloBYTES):
upload speed: 512 Kbps = 62.5 kB/s (0.51 Mbps or 0.06 MB/s)
download speed: 1536 Kbps = 187.5 kB/s (1.54 Mbps or 0.19 MB/s)
You can check it here.

utorrent setting:
So it is 512/8 x 0/8 = 51KB/s (upload)
1536/8 x 0/8 = 153KB/s (download)

If wrong pls help.

Thanks.

#2 - Locked cars - False. Details here http://www.snopes.com/autos/techno/keyless.asp - cell phones operate in the 800mhz range, keyless entry devices work in the 300mhz range. (Tried this myself on a Ford and Honda. No luck there.)

#3 - Hidden battery power - false. No specific link to goto, but plenty of people who have tried it and either nothing happened, get an error message of “could not complete code” or their phone programming was wiped completely.

#4 - stolen phone - partially true. http://www.snopes.com/crime/prevent/celltheft.asp It depends on the phone manufacturer as to what code or location in the menu shows the SN. Usually it’s in the battery compartment of the phone itself anyway. Some phone carriers can’t do anything about disabling the phone itself, some can. Again it depends on the manufacturer of the phone. The best way to find out for sure is to contact your carrier for more details.

Testing your microwave with your phone. Place your cell in the microwave and close the door. Try to call your cell. If the cell rings then throw out the oven because it’s unsafe. The phone should not be able to get a signal and ring due to the shielding to keep the microwaves contained. - True. Tried this myself (don’t turn on the microwave, no matter how much the small humans beg you to) and the phone didn’t ring no matter how often I called it from the home line. Took it out and set it on the counter in front of the microwave and it received the call just fine.

Thanks for the added info, RC. This one just came from an e-mail so it’s good to check its authenticity.
Regarding number 2, it is not really a battery reserve. It just makes your phone use less power by reducing the phone’s voice call quality. And I think it just works with selected phone models like the Nokia (3310).
And for those of you who want to find out more about the cellphone-microwave test, click here. It even has a video.

The code does not seem to work in Symbian phones like N7610.
