How to increase torrent speed

Update P2P Sharing Client

Update uTorrent.exe whenever there is an update. Using older versions will surely slow down download speed. It is recommended to tick Automatic Update in uTorrent settings.

Download Torrents with high Seeds and Peers

Seeds are the places that save complete torrent files and serve them across the web. Leechers are people who don’t have that file and join the seeds server to download it.

The Leecher becomes a Seeder after downloading the entire torrent in a P2P client. A laptop or computer participating in a Download action is called a peer.

You should always choose torrents that have high seeds and fewer Leechers to increase torrent speed. Fewer computers are downloading that torrent than it is being served by more people.

Change uTorrent Settings

With default settings, P2P clients like uTorrent suffer from slow connection networks. Modifying them would increase torrent speed.

Here are a few modifications:

  • Open torrent and click on Options tab at the top and select Preferences.
  • Then select Connection on the left-hand side.
  • Under listening ports, update the random port numbers between 40000 to 60000.
  • Enable Add Windows Firewall exception.
  • Go to Bandwidth and under a number of connections, change the global maximum no of connections. By default, it will be 200. Change it to 64.
  • Change Maximum upload rate to 500.
  • Set the Max no of connected peers per torrent = 64 (it will be 50 by default).
  • Change the number of uploads slots per torrent set to = 1.
  • Go to Advanced option and Set the value of “net.max_halfopen” to 80.
  • Then select Queueing. Set the maximum no of active torrents = 8 or 4 and maximum number of active downloads = 1 or 3.
