thanks for the help. the 30 days trial is the same as the one i found in download.com too.. seems its the most solid vmware. think i'll give it a try

thx in advance...

I've a question: Are some areas affected or are all areas affected?

I've been running KTorrent, not Deluge on Ubuntu Feisty (Deluge gives me painfully low speeds, whereas KTorrent spins up to 50kB/s in less than half a minute.). I haven't tried downloading a torrent in Windows for a very long time already, but I didn't notice any change in speed when I disabled encryption in KTorrent.

EDIT: I just tried again, and I'm getting 5kB/s torrent speed. Not bad huh.

Use VMWare lor ... i am using it ... planning to try this ....

I am running Deluge 0.5.4 in my Ubuntu 7.04 in VMware...getting good download speed like 98kB/s now.

got decent speeds without even using VPN!

hopefully some of the private trackers won't ban this client!

"i pity the fools" (lol mr. t) that pay for VPN servers. free is good. i dont see why trackers would ban this client.

I'm using ktorrent as I can't get Deluge to work, but well it works very well at 98kb/s so I'm happy hehe.

Damn!! Currently my speed is 144kbps. Very fast siot! Dunno why my upload speed so low, I've already set to unlimited upload speed.

this thing rocks! way much better than xunlei.. tried this afternoon and it's freakin awesome.. it fully utilized my 512kbps streamyx.

im glad to see that people are actually trying this. its also good to see people using open source software.

deluge is oni used for Linux OS? cant use on Windows?

hi everyone,
i've been trying this deluge now

one thing i'm wondering is about the port...
do i need to change the port or keep it default ?
cos i'm only getting 10 kBps, never more than that ?
or any setting do i need to change ?

Yeah.. Me too. Speed is 10kbps rite now.

Hey this works great. Thanks for sharing praveenmarkandu
Really getting unthrottled speeds now. My utorrent used to just go from 10-20kB/s. Now at a blazing 100+kB/s with deluge

About the port I have been using the default ones. I am behind a router too and surprisingly i did not need to set anything.

yes i am behind router as well but it doesn't seem like i'm getting significant speed...
so anyone else here using default setting and get super speed ?
if yes, then maybe something wrong at my side here

@zubai | aren't u getting 100 kBps ? i read ur previous post

I wanna know more but the website is not very clear on how the encryption works.
Doesn't it require that other peers also use Deluge in order to maximise the full benefits of this encyption?

Nope, as u can see in the peer list most of it are with utorrent or bitcomet.

okay. basically you can set your port to whatever. just pick a random port. mines like 12879 (try not to pick the old default bittorrent ports 6881-6999) (BUT DONT CHECK THE "RANDOM PORTS" box also. Specify your own port). you dont need to set a port range. if you just want 1 port then put the same number for both entries. refer to my attachment. i use deluge 0.54 now even though the screenshot was from 0.53.
you have to then forward the ports on your router to let anything through effectively. i think its best to disable UPnP and NAT-pmp because it might screw with your router. and on your router itself disable UPnP as well. this means you have to forward all your ports for outgoing connections manually like for VPN or battlenet.
slow speeds....well, they are torrents. and it all depends on availability. speeds always vary since 200 people might have the same piece of the file but only one person might have another piece. just have to be patient i guess. and share thats how torrents work. i try to keep my ratio to at least 1.5


Attached thumbnail(s)

They are working on a windows port but no timeline on when it will be done.

Chances are once it is released on windows, tmnut will throttle it in a month or two.

any step by step instruction?
