Step 1: Set your “Global Maximum Number of Connections” to 130.
(For 256K connections) Setting this number to low will limit your
speeds, and setting it too high will cause too much bandwidth to be
used, and can cause slowdowns.
Step 2: Set “Maximum Number of Connected Peers per Torrent” to 70.
(For 256K connections) If you see that the peers connected to a
specific torrent are exactly that number, or very close, then increase
this number to improve seeds.
Step 3: Set “Number of Uploaded Slots Per Torrent” to 3. (for 256K
connections) This depends how much you want to upload to other
users. If set too low it may affect download speeds.
Step 4: Check “Use additional upload slots if upload speed <90%”
Step 5: In Options>Preferences>Queuing, Set “Maximum Number of
Active Torrents” to 2 (for 256K connections)
Step 6: Set “Maximum Number of Active Downloads” to 1 (for 256K
Connections). [If you download more than one torrent at a time you
will experience slow speeds. It is best to download one file, and then
download one after.]
Step 7: In Options>Preferences>BitTorrent, Check “Enable DHT
Network” (This is recommended to be checked to improve speeds.
More people will be available for sharing if it is checked.
Step 8: Check “Enable DHT for New Torrents”
Step 9: Check “Enable Peer Exchange”
Step 10: Check “Enable Scrapping”
Step 11: Under Options>Preferences>Downloads, Check “Pre-Allocate
All Files”
Step 12: Under Options>Preferences>Downloads, Uncheck “Append .!
ut to Incomplete Files”
And keep seeding,your upload speeds have increased too...
