I posted about some tips on increase BitTorrent(BT) download speed. Now, John has a more specified article about “How to increase download speeds of uTorrent“.

Basically, you need to find out the optimal settings for upload/download speed, upload slots, and connection peers based on your Internet connection speed.

  • Carbonn
    Get a 20mbit line like me :) that'll boost your fun :))

    No seriously, I wouldn't know, usually I single out the most succesfull and start looking for alternatives for the others.
    At most succesfull downloads I get around 450 to 500 kbps.

    Try a monitoring tool to see what's actually going on.

    that crack is for windows xp(sp2) and it doesnt work on vista...
  • rock
    MOSTLY THE SPEED DEPENDS UPON THE "SEEDS" OF THE TORRRENT.THIS PROCESS IS THE BEST WORKING ONE.IF U WANNA TO CHECK UR ACTUAL SPEED THEN DOWNLOAD ANY TORRENT FILE WHICH HAVE MORE NUMBER OF SEEDS AND CHECK UR ACTUAL SPEED.

    ALSO I SUGGEST U TO FOLLOW THE FOLLOWING LINK AND TRY WAHT IS MENTIONED FOR VISTA AND XP USERS.IT MIGHT BE USEFUL.

    http://how-2-do.blogspot.com/2008/04/how-to-inc...

    TAKE CARE ALL OF U AND THANKS FOR UR RESPONSE.
  • rock
    AND ALSO I SUGGEST ALL OF U THAT PLZ READ THE FULL PROCESS BEFORE APPLYING IT AS RAJ DONE MISTAKE BY USING IT IN VISTA AS IT WAS FOR XP.BE CAREFUL.IT MIGHT CREATE SOME PROBLEMS TO UR OPERATING SYSTEM.
  • rock
    ALL OF U GUYS PLZ READ THE WHOLE PROCESS COMPLETLY BEFORE APPLYING IT.AS RAJ DONE MISTAKE AND USED XP TWEAK IN VISTA.IT MIGHT CREATE SOME PROBLEM TO UR OPERATING SYSTEM.SO PLZ BE CAREFUL.
    ALSO ONE VERY VERY IMPORTANT THING TAHT ALL UTORRENT USERS GO TO OPTIONS AND THEN CLICK "SPEED GUIDE" IN UTORRENT.A WEB PAGE WILL OPEN AUTOMATICALLY WHICH WILL SHOW THE STATUS OF UR PORT THAT IT IS OPENED OR BLOCKED.IF IT SHOWS OPENED THEN THERE IS NO PROBLEM BUT ON THOSE WHERE IT IS BLOCKED OR CLOSED CHECK OUT UR FIREWALL LIST AND ALLOW THE PORT NUMBER WHICH IS USED IN U TORRENT PREFERENCES-CONNECTION-PORT USED FOR INCOMING CONNECTIONS.ALSO UTORRENT APPLICATION SHOULD NOT BE BLOCKED BY UR FIREWALL.

  • LcF
    @Gagan: 1KiloBIT/Sec (KBs) is not equal to 1 KiloByte/Sec (Kbs). your download speed of 25KBs on 512kbs connection seems normal for me.
  • tabish

  • Bob
    Mine says "disk overloaded 100%". Is that what is causing the slowdown? I am at 4300 k/sec cable but I can never get more than 10k/sec download no matter how many seeders. How do I fix the "disk overload" issue?

    Thanks!

    and inj....
  • Ron
    First go to Options>Preferences>Network

    1. Under ‘Port used for incomming connections’, enter any port number. It is best to use a port number above 10000. I use 45682.
    2. 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.
    3. 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.
    4. Add utorrent to Windows Firewall exceptions (Windows XP SP2 or later only): UNCHECKED (do this only if you have windows firewall disabled)
    5. Global Maximum upload rate (kb/s): [0: unlimited]: 22 (for 256k connection)
    6. Protocol Encryption: ENABLED. I would recommend everyone to enable this. This can help increase speeds with many ISPs.
    7. Allow incoming Legacy Connections: CHECKED


    Go to:
    www.abbasrazi.co.cc
    and download optimizers to increase the speed
  • michael_shaunn

  • Budi
    hi guys! i have mostly THE BIGGEST PROBLEM OF ALL!!!!! i cannot download any torrent. ANY torrent. even ones with 177 seeds and 234 peers give me a speed of 0.9 kb/s!!!! i have a broadband connection of 256kbs and i need real help. rock i tried all your ways and all your downloads, all failed!!!!! i have a download manager named DAP Premium and i get speeds up to 50kbs. but utorrent doesn't!!! I need to give you my system details:

    Operating System: Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate SP1
    Processor Speed: 3.40 GHz or 3400 MHz
    RAM: 1 GB
    System type: 32-bit
    Free space: 36 GB
    Capacity: 48GB
  • Budi
    I NEED HELP!!!!!! ROCK, ANYBODY!!!! I CANNOT DOWNLOAD WITH ANY CLIENT, BITTORRENT, BITCOMET, VUZE, LIMEWIRE PRO I PURCHASED, EDONKEY, TORRENT2EXE, ALL GIVE ME A SPEED OF LESS THAN 0.2 KBS!!!!!! HHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLPPPPPPP!
  • FancyMan
    Hey Budi, why dont u steal other's connections?????
  • Raj
    Rock it helped me.

    Download speed depends mainly on the upload speed.

    Now my upload speed increased from 33 kb/s to 100 kb/s by increasing the upload load limit from 1kb/s to 30 kb/s.
    Option->Preference->Bandwidth

    It is simple if you give more you can take more.
