So is this just the bit torrent that is throttled or everything? Reason I ask is most satellite providers have an average ping time of 100ms+ (it takes roughly 70ms depending on orbit altitude and relative azimuth for the signal to travel either to or from the ground to the satellite). If your provider is dropping packet priority for just your torrents, then considering the traffic most inet satellites carry during the day I can see why your packets would just sit there indefinitely waiting to be routed until the ttl kills them. If it's everything then I'd call and inquire with your isp about their inability to provide even basic service during the peak hours of the day. Remember ttl doesn't care what your ping times are, so if they're really long the packet just dies and ceases to exist before it ever arrives on the other end.
