Er... uTorrent is just developing the BT software or there is a website where we can look for torrent files(like xunlei, gougou). Any recommended torrent website to find torrent files except mininova? I'm only familiar with xunlei, mininova and gougou. Lolz

uTorrent 2.0 To Elimininate The Need For ISP Throttling
Written by Ernesto on October 31, 2009

BitTorrent Inc. is about to launch a completely improved implementation of the BitTorrent protocol that will benefit both users and ISPs. uTorrent 2.0, which is currently being tested by thousands of people, will eliminate the need for ISPs to throttle or stop BitTorrent traffic, and will optimize the download experience for its users.

Shit just occurred to me....

utorrent will now throttle us to keep the QOS of the ISP network. In otherwords unlike the older utorrent clients it will not brute force high speeds or try to when the net is conjested. Instead it will throttle our speed in an attempt to ease net conjestion (even if it is not due to p2p traffic). So if some ahole is DOSing a pc on the network sending us the torrent file utorrent will detect the lag n throttle our speed to the client sending us the file instead of allowing that client to spend the file at the fastest speed possible.

Let's put it in the sense here... cuz tm oversold their bandwidth during the day utorrent will throttle us cuz of the lag n not try to get the best speed of us. It will get the best speed for the network.

What u guys think of that?

for me i think is advantage, better that full time throttle us or with bandwidth usage cap.

i use utorrent 2.0 feels like with intelligent bandwidth usage, torrent in high speed with suft net and online gaming without lag.

i dunno if 1.9 is better than 2.0 or not. base pc when using old streamyx ZTE modem with 1.9 can get 80kB/s+ most of the time. i had to switch to Aztech DSL600EW router cuz i bought a new lappie... and i can't get 1.9 since it's no longer available to download

speed quite crappy. ty Tsj262 for replying, will try that NOW.

Added on November 14, 2009, 3:45 pmoh, and what listening port should i be using again?

My household got selected for "Fibre Optic BETA Testing" (FTTH) and this is our speed. Btw, I'm using uTorrent BETA on Mac (0.9.2):

Look at the bottom-right, "1.7 MB/S" (Download rate, with down-arrow sign).
Size: 844 MB, ETA: 4 Min 32 Secs @ 48% Completed.
