Finally, after searching the internet, you find the torrent file you want, but unfortunately it is very expensive. You also still need to download the torrent and put it in uTorrent. Follow these guidelines so that you can download your torrent files faster.
Step
Method 1 of 8: Pay attention to how many seeders there are
Step 1. Pay attention to the number of seeders available for your torrent file
Seeders are those who still share files after they are finished downloading. The more seeders the faster you will download your torrent file.
If you can, try to download from a tracker that has multiple seeders for the file you want. If you can get enough seeders, you can easily reach the maximum speed of your internet connection
Method 2 of 8: Is your Wi-Fi interfering?
Step 1. Try connecting your computer directly to the modem or router and don't use WiFi
Many other signals in the house can interfere with the WiFi connection, thereby interfering with your internet speed and the speed with which you download torrents.
Method 3 of 8: Have you reached your max speed yet?
Step 1. Check the uTorrent queue settings
Every file you download on uTorrent will take up some bandwidth. When more than one file is downloaded at maximum speed, it will take longer to complete. Try to download your files one by one. Watch the first one while you wait for the second one to download.
Step 2. Click "Options" and then click "Preferences
Step 3. Click "Queuing" on the left side and change the number of files you can actively download at a time to 1
Step 4. Click "Apply" and click "OK"
Step 5. Enable "UPnP port mapping
This will allow uTorrent to bypass your firewall and connect directly to the seeder. This will give you the most optimal file transfer speed. To enable UPnP:
Step 6. Click "Options" and select "Preferences
Step 7. Click the "Connection" option in the left menu
Step 8. Check the box to enable "UPnP port mapping
Step 9. Click "Apply" and click "OK
Method 4 of 8: Is the version you are using the latest version?
Step 1. Make sure that you are using the latest version of uTorrent
Check regularly to update it. You can check it by clicking "Help" and then selecting the "Check For Updates" option.
Step 2. Choose an internet package with a higher speed
Depending on where you live, you may be able to change your internet plan now. This will cost you more each month, although you may get promotional offers if you change internet service providers.
Step 3. Use more trackers
That way you will get even higher speeds if the tracker has more seeds.
Method 5 of 8: Have you considered changing the download speed?
Step 1. Double click on the download menu
A new menu will appear. It will have a "maximum download speed" option (or something similar). For example, your download speed will be expressed as 0.2 KB/s.
Step 2. Change the numbers
Change to 9999999999999999999999 or another high number.
Step 3. Click OK
Step 4. Watch how your download speed will increase to at least 500 Kb/s
It will take a little while to reach 500. But your download speed will be faster than before.
Method 6 of 8: Have you set a priority on uTorrent?
Step 1. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del at the same time
Step 2. Click "Taskmanager
Step 3. Select "Processes
Step 4. Scroll down until you find uTorrent.exe
Step 5. Right-click on uTorrent.exe
Step 6. Change the priority to high
Method 7 of 8: Have you adjusted any other options?
Step 1. Click "Options"
Step 2. Click "Preferences"
Step 3. Select "Advanced" and click the "+" sign to open it
Step 4. Select "Disk Cache"
Step 5. Enable "Override automatic cache size and specify the size manually (MB)"
Step 6. Enter the number 1800 in the box to the right of "Override automatic cache size and specify the size Manually (MB)
Step 7. Click the "Apply" button
Step 8. Select "Bandwidth"
Step 9. Put a tick in the section that says "Global maximum number of connections:
, and change the value in it to 500.
Step 10. Click the "Apply" button
Step 11. Close the "Preferences" page
Click the "OK" button to close this page and save the changes you made.
Method 8 of 8: Have you tried force-starting?
Step 1. Right click on the torrent you want to make faster
Step 2. Click "force start" in the menu that appears
Step 3. Right click again on the torrent
Step 4. Click on the "bandwidth allocation" section in the menu that appears and change it to high
Tips
- Make uTorrent faster by closing other programs on your computer. Running other programs will eat up your hardware capacity and slow down your torrent download speed.
- If downloading one torrent file at a time, increase the maximum connection speed per torrent to 250. Go to "preferences." Under the torrent menu find the connection: "Global Limit / Per torrent limit." Change "per torrent limit" to "global limit."
- If you can, don't choose unseeded torrents.
- Use websites like Speakeasy and CNET Bandwidth meter to measure your internet speed. You may be downloading torrent files at a slow speed due to slow internet connection speed, in which case you will need to contact your internet service provider or consider replacing it for better internet speed.
- Sometimes the speed you get doesn't match the cost you pay. If this condition lasts more than a week, contact your internet service provider to find out why.
