Torrent Speed Up

• FOLLOW THE SETTINGS TO INCRESE DOWNLOAD SPEEDJ

These settings are optimized for 256k connection.

Options>Preferences>Torrents

• Maximum Number of connected peers per torrent: 70 (for 256k connection)If you see that the peers connected to a specific torrent are exactly this number, or very close, increase this number to improve speeds.
• Global Maximum Number of Connections: 130 (for 256k connection)This number should not be set too low or the number of connections made to your torrents will be limited. Setting it too high may cause too much bandwidth to be used and can cause slowdowns
• Number of upload slots per torrent: 3 (for 256k connection)This depends on how much you want to upload to other users. Do not set too low or it may affect download speeds.
• Use additional upload slots if upload speed <90%: CHECKED
• Maximum number of active torrents: 2 (for 256k connection)
• Maximum number of active downloads: 1 (for 256k connection)
• Enable DHT Network: CHECKEDThis is recommended to be checked to improve speeds. More people will be available for sharing if this is checked.
• Enable DHT for new torrents: CHECKED
• Enable Peer Exchange: CHECKED
• Enable scrapping: CHECKED
• Pre-allocate all files: CHECKED
• Append .!ut to incomplete files: UNCHECKED

First go to Options>Preferences>Network

• Randomize port each time utorrent starts: UNCHECKED. I leave this unchecked because I have a router. If you do not have a router or a firewall, and want extra security,check this option.
• Under ‘Port used for incomming connections’, enter any port number. It is best to use a port number above 10000. I use 45682.
• Enable UPnP port mapping (Windows Xp or later only): UNCHECKED. I leave this unchecked because I have experienced it slowing down speeds. It is not needed if you manually port forward.
• Add utorrent to Windows Firewall exceptions (Windows XP SP2 or later only): UNCHECKED (do this only if you have windows firewall disabled)
• Global Maximum upload rate (kb/s): [0: unlimited]: 22 (for 256k connection)
• Protocol Encryption: ENABLED. I would recommend everyone to enable this. This can help increase speeds with many ISPs.
• Allow incoming Legacy Connections: CHECKED

FOR OTHER CONNECTIONS LESS OR MORE THAN 256Kbps

Maximum upload speed

If you use your Maximum upload speed, there won’t be not enough space left for the files you are downloading. So you have to cap your upload speed.

This is how I calculate my o

ptimal upload speed…

upload speed * 80%

Maximum download speed

Setting your maximum download speed to unlimited will hurt your connection. So use this to calculate your optimal setting.

download speed * 90%

Maximum connected peers per torrent

upload speed * 1.3

Maximum upload slots

1 + (upload speed / 6)

Disable Windows Firewall

Windows Firewall hates P2P and so disable it and get yourself a decent firewall like Zone Alarm

Speed Up Intenet

Improve your internet speed...

Microsoft reserves 20% of ur available bandwidth for their own purposes like Windows Updates etc. Don't you want to get it back for yourself.

Steps to get it back:-

Click Start then Run and type "gpedit.msc" without quotes.

This opens the "group policy editor" and go to: "Local Computer Policy"

Then "Computer Configuration"

Then "Administrative Templates"

Then select "Network" then "QOS Packet Scheduler"

After that select "Limit Reservable Bandwidth".

Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth. It will say it is not configured, but the truth is under the 'Explain' tab i.e." By default, the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the default."

This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the default 20.

Enjoy J
