    make my comp use all my internet

    right this might be a really nooby thread to make but i dont have a clue about how the net works in my comp, right heres my problem,

    when i download my music and stuff (through vuze ) it only uses like between 0.5 and 0.9 % of my link speed but it obv that my comp can use more as when i go on the net it jumps up to about 3% and to me this just seems like 97% of my speed isnt being used

    if this is so, how do i make my comp use more if not all? if not am i just being a noob?

    isn't vuze a torrent client? So speed is depending on the amount of seeders etc?

    in general isn't it so that downloads are limited by the host from which you download, so even if you had 200 mb/s download speed, but the host of the file is only allowing 100 kb/s you wouldn't go faster than that anyway? (I think)

    Actually your comp should do this. But remember that your download speed is dependet on the other servers/client's upstream.
    You: Download 1MB/s
    Server: Upload 20kb/s
    You'll obviously won't load with more than 20kb/s.
    You: Download 1MB/s
    Server: Upload 0.5MB/s but connected with many users
    you'll probably get 0.1-0.4 MB/s

    basically when downloading with torrents your best going with utorrent for starters.

    i followed this tut a few weeks ago it helped quiet a bit.

    Step 1 : Open Utorrent then 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: Checked.

    Step 2 : 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%:>Maximum number of active torrents: 2 (for 256k connection)
    6. Maximum number of active downloads: 1 (for 256k connection)
    7. Enable DHT Network: CHECKED, 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: CHECKED
    9. Enable Peer Exchange: CHECKED
    10. Enable scrapping: CHECKED
    11. Pre-allocate all files: CHECKED
    12. Append .!ut to incomplete files: UNCHECKED

    Step 3 : 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.

    All these setting are applied here are related to john's bandwidth, i applied this and it is really working, You also need to calculate your optimal setting for your connection . This is what john had to say about how to calculate optimal setting for your connection, check it from here ..
    Apply these setting and enjoy downloading from torrent.. If you Know any other tricks to increase uTorrent’s download speed? Please share them here....
