uTorrent
uTorrent is one of those torrent clients that are very small in terms of filesize. Note that uTorrent doesn’t support UDP trackers. According to uTorrent, there are many flaws with the UDP torrent spec and that’s why they’re not going to have the feature.
- Port for Incoming Connections. If you are behind a router/firewall, you have to configure your firewall/router to open the port value. If you’re using a router and don’t know how to forward your port, refer to this page. If you’re using a firewall, do figure this out yourself (Refer Help/FAQ for firewall). *Suggested value: 60000-65000 (Less Internet traffic rely on these ports, so it’s good to use them.)
- Maximum Upload Rate. Use torrent speed calculator to calculate.
- Maximum Download Rate. Use torrent speed calculator to calculate.
- Global maximum number of connections. *Suggested value: 200-400 (Depending on how many download tasks you are going to run.)
- Maximum number of connected peers per torrent. *Suggested value: 50-100
- Untick Enable DHT Network and Enable DHT for new torrents. Unless the torrent task you’re downloading has no seeds at all, probably you can try this. But most likely it doesn’t help It’ll just slow down your download speed. So UNTICK it.
- Outgoing protocol encryption. Choose “Forced” from the drop-down list. Unless there’s 1 or 2 seeds and you’re getting no traffic after 1 day, don’t disable that.
That’s about all for uTorrent. Remember, the settings are flexible. They may suit some users, and not all. Change them accordingly to recommended values.

so, what can i do with upload speed in uTorrent??
This guide is very detailed, thumbs up to the one who made this. Pretty sure he must have put in a lot of effort to compile this data. However, for those who hate browsing over multiple-part tutorial, here I found a more simplified version of the information explained above. http://www.speedypc.org/how-to-speed-up-torrent-downloads.html
basically, we just need to open more ports for utorrent downloads to speed up traffic. Torrents use ports 6881 to 6999. If port 6881 is blocked, it will knock on other ports and see if they’re open for use. Keeping these ports open can speed up downloads plus you also need to make sure that the firewall settings are not intefering with this open torrent port.

More trackers, more trackers mean more seeds and thus more speed. Go to http://torrents.iza.co.za/tracker_finder.php to find more trackers for any torrent. (A fault with the form there is that you can’t hit enter on your keyboard, you must click on the find button)
You can also calculate optimal settings that will speed up your client with their speed calculator at http://torrents.iza.co.za/speed_calc.php
There is also some other tips on speeding up your torrent as well as tutorials about creating torrents etc.
I get … 600 kB in and out on a good day (but I usually cap it so it’s more like 50)
So, i think that using of VPN is better.
Torrents aren’t as safe as they used to be. I’ve hear lots of people recently are getting caught downloading popular movies.
