How to Make Utorrent Faster Using Protocol Encryption

Since I am using uTorrent, I will describe this in separate steps for both
uTorrent users and other client users. Protocol Encryption makes it to where
your ISP can not identify torrent traffic, which decreases the chance of them
throttling, or limiting your bandwidth while downloading torrents.
uTorrent Users: Be sure that everything I have checked is checked on your
client. Most of this comes by default. The most important thing here is
Protocol Encryption. Be sure this is set to Enabled, and that Allow
incoming legacy connections is checked.
Other Torrent Clients: In your settings (most likely under connections), there
will be something along the lines of Protocol Encryption, Transport
Encryption, or Traffic Shaping. Enable these settings and allow incoming
legacy connections.

How to Make Utorrent Faster Using Bandwidth


users can increase their Utorrent clients performance in order to make
downloading and uploading files faster. In order to this try the following:
1) Open the Utorrent client, click on the Options tab, and select Preferences.
2) Select the Connections tab and enter 45682 into the Port used for
incoming connections box.
3) Scroll to the bottom of that same window and enter 65 into the Global
maximum upload rate box and 0 into the Global maximum download
rate box under Bandwidth Limiting.
4) Open the Utorrent/BitTorrent tab and enter 1890 into the Global maximum number of
connections box, 2329 into the Maximum number of connected peers per torrent box, and
14 into the Number of upload slots per torrent box. Be sure to select every box on this screen
and ensure that the Outgoing Protocol Encryption is set to Enabled.
5) Click on the Queueing tab and enter 60 into the box for number of active torrents and 63
into the box for number of active downloads. Ensure that the Seed Ratio is set to 100% and
uncheck every box on this screen.
6) Click Apply on the bottom of the window and restart Utorrent. The program should now be
much faster

How to Make Utorrent Faster Using Advanced Settings


Now its time to change some Advanced settings. In settings/preferences, click on advanced. It
says Warning: Do not modify but if you follow exactly what I do, your client will be safe.
Again this can be done in any Torrent Client, but you have to understand what the settings mean
as they may be worded differently.
uTorrent: You can use the filter (search box) to quickly find certain settings.
Set bt.allow_same_ip to True by clicking on it and setting the value to true. (see picture for
example.)
Set gui.show_notorrents_node to False (Use filter or scroll down in Advanced to find it.)

Set rss.update_interval to 20 (Make sure you click on Set after you type in 20)
Apply and close out of Advanced settings. Restart uTorrent or torrent client.
