I can only compare p2p in FC3 with m$ XP.

And in XP I can run p2p programs and stream music and browse and it 
feels as if xp does a better job of dividing up the bandwith between 
applications then FC3 does.

note the way I worded: "xp does a better job" I don't mean to even 
suggest that xp is better. but by default in my house on my laptop using 
things the way i use them xp is doing a 'better' job.

is there a way to dictate to FC3 how it is supposed to be managing the 
internet connection between applications? Like to give a numerical 
priority to Application A, B, C and so on? Or is it in the way you open 
the applications? Application A, is opened before B therefore it 
receives a bigger piece of the  bandwith...?

I'm new to all this (dual booting xp and linux since september) so it's 
time to start getting more about of linux.

any suggestions?

ISP: cox 256k cable internet
laptop: 2.8 ghz compaq 512mb of ram (shared w/ video actual: 384 mb of 
ram for OS)
Apps: realplayer(streaming), aMule(p2p file sharing), firefox, thunderbird.
Realplayer just stops working, firefox, t-bird just slow way down, and 
aMule keeps on trucking.
