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 ?torrent starts: UNCHECKED

leave this unchecked because if u have 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

leave this unchecked because I have experienced it slowing down speeds. It is not needed if you manually port forward.

4.Add ?torrent 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: Off


Options>Preferences>Torrents

1.Global Maximum Number of Connections: 130 (for 256k connection)

This number should not be set too low or the number of connections made to your torrents will be limited. Setting it too high may cause too much bandwidth to be used and can cause slowdowns.
2.Maximum Number of connected peers per torrent: 70 (for 256k connection)

If you see that the peers connected to a specific torrent are exactly this number, or very close, increase this number to improve speeds.
3.Number of upload slots per torrent: 3 (for 256k connection)

This depends on how much you want to upload to other users. Do not set too low or it may affect download speeds.

4.Use additional upload slots if upload speed <90%: CHECKED
5.Maximum number of active torrents: 2 (for 256k connection)
6.Maximum number of active downloads: 1 (for 256k connection)
7.Enable DHT Network: off

This is recommended to be checked to improve speeds. More people will be available for sharing if this is checked.

8.Enable DHT for new torrents: Off
9.Enable Peer Exchange: CHECKED
10.Enable scrapping: CHECKED
11.Pre-allocate all files: CHECKED
12.Append .!ut to incomplete files: UNCHECKED



Options>Preferences>Advanced

If you use Windows XP SP2, patch tcpip.sys with LvlLord?s Event ID 4226 Patcher to get better performance.

net.max_halfopen: 50

DO NOT CHANGE THIS OPTION unless you have Windows XP SP2 and have patched tcpip.sys.

You can also patch tcpip.sys with xp-Antispy

If you have a firewall?

Open up the options/preferences/settings for the firewall - usually your firewall will have an icon to click in the taskbar
Look for the keywords ?allow list? or ?programs?
Add the application you want to give access to the internet
Make sure to save your settings when you are done

If you have a router?

Go to start>run>type cmd, press enter>type ipconfig, press enter
Remember both your ip address and your default gateway
Type in your default gateway into your default browser, a password prompt may come up. The default username and password are admin for my router
Under ?Applications? fill out one line for each p2p client you use
You need to use your ip address, the correct port range and set either tcp or udp
You can find and change the ports in the actual p2p client?s settings, just make sure they are the same in the router
Most p2p apps need both tcp and udp checked, if you are not sure check your p2p client?s FAQ
Save your settings

Check PortForward.com to forward ports for uTorrent.

Thanks! It worked, my download speed increased to almost thrice of what I had earlier.

Actually your tips are for a slower connection ....

so for me this link for Speed up Torrent works better

so guys do check this out !!!!

Well, OK Admin, Here's the requested Article

Help! BitTorrent or Utorrent (Same)~ slow…
This is probably one of the most frequently asked questions
I get about BitTorrent.
Here's some simple steps to optimize your speeds.

Tip: Want to download Torrents anonymously?
Try TorrentPrivacy, the only way to torrents download securely.

1. Cap your upload (most important)

Limit your upload speed to approximately 80 percent of your maximum upload rate.

You can check your upload speed over here (never trust your isp).

Check Upload speed Link
Once you know your maximum upload speed,
change the max upload (to 80%) speed in your torrent client’s preferences.

Don’t get me wrong, everyone should share as much as possible,
but if your upload rate reached it’s max,
your download rate suffers significantly.

2. Hack the max TCP connections

If you’re on XP sp2, your TCP connections are
limited to a maximum of 10.

This seriously hurts your downloading speed because
it wont let you connect to a high amount of ip numbers.

It is supposed to slow down viruses because their
spreading strategy is to connect to a high amount
of ip numbers, but it also cripples
your torrent downloads.

A nice way to fix this is to download this patch,
here's the link
it allows you to set the maximum allowed connections
to any number you want.
Any number between 50 and 100 is ok (more on this).

3. Check seeds and peers

A simple tip, but o so important.
Always look for torrents with the best seed/peer ratio.

The more seeds (compared to peers) the better (in general).
So 50 seeds and 50 peers is better than
500 seeds and 1000 peers.
So, be selective.

4. Change the default port.

By default, BitTorrent uses a port 6881-6999.

BitTorrent accounts for a lot of the total internet traffic (1/3),
so isp’s like to limit the connection offered on the these ports.

So, you should change these to another range.
Good clients allow you to do this, just choose anything you like.

If you’re behind a router, make sure you have the ports
forwarded or UPnP enabled.

5. Disable Windows Firewall

It sucks.
Windows Firewall hates P2P and often leads a life of it’s own.
So disable it and get yourself a decent firewall,
Kerio or Zone Alarm for example.

Last but not least…

Buy a faster connection…
