The higher the number inside the (), the better chance you'll have to get more connected Seeds/Peers therefore more speed.īe sure you don't have something uploading at full speed. You're seeing less people than the site shows (You see 0 Seeder out of 1 - and 0 Peers out of 2)! Wait 5min, if it doesn't change, it means you can't connect to them for some reason. but inside your client you see 0(1) Seeds / 0(2) Peers. Best bet is to keep monitoring for possible malicious malware (5 Antivirus's is unnecessary, 1 will do) and clear some space in the drive and defrag. The top two reasons I can think of are malware and or losing space in the hard drive due to downloading torrents.
Sometimes you'll see on your torrent webpage 14 Seeders & 5 Leechers. There are definitely many possible reasons for your computer slowing down. Take a look at your Connected Seeders/Peers in your client. Public vs Private Trackers won't change a thing! A good balance of Seeders & Peers will help! 10 seeders with no peers can be slower than 1 seeder & 10 peers! Should not change speed, but encryption should always be on! I have a 120Mbit connection (12MB/s) and get up to 18MB/s on torrents!Įnable your Encryption inside the Client. For me 400 Max Connections & 5 Upload Slots always seems to work. Try adding more connections to your bandwidth settings inside your client. Restrict upload speed when the download is finished if you have to limit it.īandwidth Settings in client. I downloaded ubuntu on the app just to see and the speeds were faster than on the Windows version of utorrent.
Edit: Interestingly I get really good speeds in the utorrent android app as well. Max Upload Speed in client can limit the download speed! Some client will do this to encourage you to Seed. I have gotten good speeds with utorrent before, so I am not sure why the downloads are slow all of the sudden. If all data is encrypted, your ISP will be unable to read or sort your data as it passes through their network. The best way to do this is to encrypt all data going to and from your computer. Porn Sites seems to be a great indicator for this! To block throttling you have to block your ISP’s ability to read your traffic. When I found out that my speed changed depending on what I was doing, I did my research and changed ISP in the following days! - I identified this, by running a Speed Test and then doing something I thought my ISP slowed down and run the Speed Test while doing it, closing everything and run the speed test again.
