Bittorent and VPN Connection?

[Pirate]

Anyone knows if bittorent client supports VPN Connection (Satellite Connection) ?

I don't see why not. If the internet works using the satellite connection then there is no reason why BitTorrent won't work as it just requires TCP/IP.

I'm not sure since my friend got an issue while downloading with bt .It works without VPN connection . I thought it's because of VPN establishes private -encrypted- tunnel connections so this will hinder clients to upload files from his computer which is against bt idea (the more you share , the more you download) .

What do you think ? or better to say do you know anything about Bittorrent ?

in theory it should be fine as it interacts with the web via TCP/IP which is what bittorrent uses. As for encodeing it doesnt matter as it will be decoded when it reaches the sat server in order to be compatable with the internet.
