utorrent : how to control the seeding sequence?

The latest completed torrent gets seeded while the older completed torrent ends up in a queue.

i'm having some weird problem....
my ddl speed was fast & fluctuate around 80-100kbps,but after several minutes of torrenting.....
my browser will showed connection error & not working at all....IE,firefox,chrome & etc.
after exit uTorrent, everything back to normal....
anyway,how to solve da problem?

What version of utorrent u using?

latest 1.91 build 13910
anyone faced this problem?

you can't have total control over the seeding. Some older torrents are not in demand, so who r u going to seed to?

but if you want to have some control, just stop seeding the ones that you don't want to seed for now. Later you can continue seeding the files.

I usually keep 1.0 - 1.5 seeding ratio, unless there's no demand for the files. What's yours?

you need to reduce your download and upload bandwidth since utorrent is using it all up. If that doesn't help, try lowering your "Global maximum number of connections" too.

work much better
but i noticed my ddl speed significantly slower around 30-50kbps

Wow.... 80-100 kbps ???

My top speeds are like 50kbps... rarely go past it.

juz down lil tweak by adjusting "Global maximum number of connections" & "Maximum number of connected peer per torrent"
now even more better stay around 100kbps.....G-SPOT!!!

of course la, you're limiting utorrent bandwidth

btw, you're on 1Mbps package?
note that since 1 Byte = 8 bits. Notice the big B and the small b?
1Mbps means 1 Mega bits per second = 128 kilo bytes per second (theoretically)

that means you can download at a maximum theoretical speed of 128kB/s using 1Mbps package. Actual maximum speed may be around 118kB/s


you're probably using 512kbps package like me. Theoretical max speed = 64kBps
Maximum (actual) speed around 54kB/s

And it's 100kBps, not kbps

can i know how to set my utorrent to maximize my dwnload speed? i read the guide but i dun really understand how to determine my actual speed. Im using streamyx 512kbpx dwnload but when i test at speedometer, the rate differ?

Love the way you describe that~

hmm i now know y i cant get good speed that day, forgot to enable protocol encryption. now can torrent very fast in vista wakaka

Been using utorrent for about a year now and works great so far. My download speed is around 150-170kb/s max for well seeded torrent. Up speed around 50kb/s. Oh and Im using streamyx

im not portfowarding my utorrent1.8, and my speed is around 10~20.... is there any significant speed increase if i portfoward my torrent? and my i know ur torrent setting? im using 384Kbps streamyx....

How to enable that?

portforwarding does help, trust me. if you keep getting yellow light at the status bar at the bottom of utorrent, once u portforward u will get green

In Preference > BitTorent

is the utorret port plays big role on the speed or the number of seeders?,
i just fmt my pc, and forgot to copy my utorrent.... i lost all the setting, that i got from utube, izzit on this thread, the link to the vid

@rebelsoul76

how come when i use uTorrent .. i find it very hard to surf the web ? or even download new definitions for my antivirus ?

how can i overcome this problem ?

The settings from youtube doesn't really work, because their ISP bandwidth is much faster than our Streamyx. If you follow their settings, you will find your line choked to the point of not able to surf while torrenting.

The settings that worked for me is

Lower down "Global maximum number of connections" & "Maximum number of connected peer per torrent" and ensure "Protocol Encryption" is Enabled

The torrent port number should follow what you put in your router/modem and firewall during port forwarding

Lower down "Global maximum number of connections" & "Maximum number of connected peer per torrent" and ensure "Protocol Encryption" is Enabled

Global maximum number of connections - lower to what is the minimum? will it affect my torrent speed?
