U torrent mild tweaking 101

Ok a lot of people experience  slow download speeds while using utorrent i have written up and pieced together from my own tweaking experience ,a guide that should increase your speeds!!

Now listen carefully:


1.Options
2.Preferences
3.Bit torrent


1. Append .!ut to incomplete files: UNCHECKED

If a mod sees this can you kindly relocate it to , the FAQ database . Thanks :)

2. Pre-allocate all files: CHECKED

3. Enable scrapping: CHECKED

4.Enable Peer Exchange: CHECKED

5.Enable DHT for new torrents: CHECKED

6. Enable DHT Network: CHECK There are more people avavilble if this is checked ...

7.Use additional upload slots if upload speed Checked




1. First go to Options
2. Preferences
3. Connection


1. Add µtorrent to Windows Firewall exceptions (XP SP2 or later only): UNCHECKED Make sure windows firewall has been disabled!

2.Enable UPnP port mapping ( Xp or later only): UNCHECKED unchecked because I have experienced it slowing down speeds.

3.Randomize port each time µtorrent starts: UNCHECKED Now if you have a router make sure this box is unchecked , if you dont for more security check the box. It doesn't differ the speed either way.

4.Port used for incoming connections enter any port number. It is best to use a port number above 10000. I use 61827

5. Allow incoming Legacy Connections: CHECKED

6.
Protocol Encryption: ENABLED . This can increase your speed depending on your isp.

I know i haven't gone into how to set up your upload speeds and download speeds , because i personally think its best just using the speed guide . :)



This patch below will open a command prompt screen , which will ask you if you would like to change your ports to 50 , press Y and enter . Once you have done that it will boast your downloading experience. I don't find it does it by much but it does help when download small files with low seeds .
