Use uTorrent 1.8.3 for better speed

[Kopi_si]

In uTorrent 1.8.3, a new protocol, UTP is enabled by default which can avoid ISP bandwidth throttling. Between 2 UTP enabled clients (some other bittorrent client hae also implemented it, check latest version if you are not using uTorrent 1.8.3), data transfer is increased by bypassing the ISP protocol throttling.

As I understand from the document, it is very costly for the ISP to throttle this new protocol. So the time being enjoy the speed. The gain is only possible if the clients are UTP enabled.

How to enable and disable it:
Preferences > Advanced, change bt.transp_disposition. This is now a bitfield, so you can add up the following numbers to get your desired setting.
1 - outgoing TCP
2 - outgoing uTP
4 - incoming TCP
8 - incoming uTP
Specific combinations:
255 - both TCP and uTP, incoming + outgoing (future-proof setting, always will mean this)
15 - both TCP and uTP, incoming + outgoing (default)

For example
i) to enable "outgoing uTP" and "incoming uTP", the value to set is 2 + 8 = 10

ii) to enable "outgoing TCP", "incoming TCP" and "incoming uTP", the value to set is 1 + 4 + 8 = 13

The default set value is 13, but recommended value is 15 or 255. Experiment with the different values.

BitTorrent 6.1.2 client support this new UTP protocol

[Kopi_si]

I am getting good speed at a total of combined 120kB which I never get on a Saturday afternoon. Yes, I am downloading from UTP enabled clients. My set value is 15

Latest version of uTorrent is 1.8.3 build 15728 dated 26 Jun 09, solved memory leakage etc.

On the "peer" tab, uTP enabled clients has a "[uTP]" tagged at the end of their IP address.

[samchng56]

tht's nice. gd for ST users.. same for myself:s13:

[Kiwi8]

Yup I'm getting good speeds too using the uTP protocol.

I'm using uTorrent 1.9 beta.

Does it really help significantly? I'm still using the retro version 1.6.1 (build 490) :o:s13:

Yes. Using any bt client that implement the new uTP protocol. Just make sure you enable the feature.

[kai_87]

wads does future-proof setting for 255 means?
It seem better for me to set to 255 than 15

[Kiwi8]

Does it really help significantly? I'm still using the retro version 1.6.1 (build 490) :o:s13:

Yup it helps significantly. U will notice that most of your downloading connections that are uTP-based will have a higher downloading rate than the other connection-types.

[Kiwi8]

wads does future-proof setting for 255 means?
It seem better for me to set to 255 than 15

For now, 255 is the same as 15, but the authors may decide to change what 15 means in the future. If u just want to use all possible connections from now on, just stick to 255 lor.

[BlackCube]

15 seem very good to me. Yet to try out 255.

I change to 15 and the downloading speed increased dramatically.

Verified and tested, works like a charm

But do remember not to touch the UPnP or NAT


Thanks to T.S about this:D


Any starhub users care to share on this setting? Does it work for you?

[liangtam]

For UDP, becos there is less overhead such as ACK, speed is more faster per connection
But I guess more other applications like streamings will be affected

[BradenHeat]

For those who like to know WHY this method T.S gave us worked

do check out this little link

http://www.skullbox.net/tcpudp.php

to put it simpler

1) TCP is slow than UDP, because it checks bits every time

2) UDP though error prone, does this weakness away since its alot faster than TCP

*Given from some guru here :D

[tigerwoods]

good for stingtel & stuckhub users

This explaination does make sense, since for UDP there is no handshaking and its stateless. I'll try it out and feedback.

Thanks for the share guys :)

If I'm not wrong, there is also another reason in that it is harder to throttle UDP-based traffic. If they do so, it might heavily impact those playing real-time games, internet telephone, video streaming, etc etc. :o

[guangzong]

I downloaded this version and used it the entire day. Can't really see the difference. Maybe its because i used to get good speeds previously already :D:s13::o

What's the bt.transp_disposition setting for Bittorrent? Default value is 0, and now im set it to 15 instead.

Would that be ok?

[Litmuss]

Setting it to 15 made it worse for me as it limits around 40-50 KB/s. Returning it to default value of 13 allows better download for me.

Try putting it to 255

[fusionexxtreme]

255 or 15 does not work for me, does not connect to any peers/seeds at all. Using SN BB 8mb, default setting of 0 works for me.

Going to change the setting to 255. Will feedback accordingly :)

[vivalabam]

for me it only made a difference on private trackers (demonoid and hd-bits), speed for individual torrents jumped from 220kB/s to 500+ kB/s. nice.

public trackers don't seem to show much improvement though...

As above.

[Litmuss]

for Outgoing protocol encrpytion, do u set as "forced"? Do u guys enable or disable incoming legacy connection?

Funny, for Singnet, setting the default of 13 works best for me. The rest of 15/255 ain't good.

If I continue using 1.8.2 and change my bt.transp_disposition to 15 or 255, will it enable the UTP protocol too?

Yes, this is indeed a good guide. I got good speeds from it.

Are you using a modem-and-router? If so, it could be that the device cannot take the load. Otherwise, try lowering the number of connections to see if the situation improves.

I think there is something wrong with SNBB. My speeds are terrible also, and even going back to 1.8.2 hasn't helped much.

It probably means your ISP is throttling your TCP connections. :s21:

xunlei had been banned by quite a lot of tracker and BT program.. at least bitcomet is blocking them for 0kb upload.. just a tips.. there is actually crack for xunlei where your program is clean and "green", with no adware, and still possible to still leech by disguising as other BT program. not that i'm encouraging xunlei since i'm actually a anti-xunlei user myself lol.. but it's just a matter of choice ba

Hi, guy may I know that must I download totalliy finished the movies or drama then it can be preview as I can't see any even it had 2-3% of the file, as I use limewire it can be preview any advise thank :flash:

U can't do that with BitTorrent files unless u have seen that the beginning part of the file has been downloaded already. If the beginning part of the file has not been downloaded then most likely u cannot play the partial file.

[rc79]

Recently I also upgraded to 1.8.3.

The Speed are RIDICULOUS!

I can't even get 50k TOTAL for ($)@($*#$&.

It is a very popular Torrent loh.

All my Seeds average @ 400~500 and the speeds and connections are the lowest I have seen in a long long time. Anyone having the same problems?

OS: Vista 32bit Service Pack 2

Same here but when I downgraded back to 1.8.2, the speed never improved. Now I totally regret upgrading to 1.8.3 but there are some members here that have the same slow speed even with other torrent programs. So it may be due to SNBB.

I noticed that if connected to a local (S'pore) peer, the speed is faster but strangely, any 1 torrent can only be connected to one fast local peer. Other peers which are mainly overseas peers are at miserable speeds of < 2 kB/s.

Occasionally, the speed will rise back again to what I get normally. This is when you notice that suddenly all the overseas peers can hit high speeds but then only momentarily. Then it's back to the slow speed again.

Is this some sort of traffic shaping in action? What the @##$%! Will monitor for another few more days....if still no improvement, jump ship!

[deestroy]

im using SNBB 10mbps with that miobox and im still hitting around 300+ kb\s (for each torrent) with utorrent 1.83. the max ive got was 800+ constant (for 1 torrent) for an entire night with the same setup. but on average my total download speed of all my torrents added up is usually 800+

[MasterNut]

Hi just to share , i am also on SNBB 10mbps
Intially the 1.8.3 worked fine for me till they ask me to update to 1.8.3 build 15772 ,then it became very slow and even rolling back to 1.8.2 or using other BT clients also doesnt work .

But i do not think its singnet's fault as i have 2 other computers in the house running older versions of Utorrent , the download speeds on those computer are as per normal very fast able to hit 800kb-1000 on well seeded torrents.

[katoboy]

U can't do that with BitTorrent files unless u have seen that the beginning part of the file has been downloaded already. If the beginning part of the file has not been downloaded then most likely u cannot play the partial file. At last I can see the preview of my content :D as I compare with my previous Limewire the uTorrent 1.8.3 it MUCH mush better than Limewire I appreare you guy to recommand this site keep it up :s12:

[katoboy]

please dun use limewire, its a piece is malware-adware magnet. lol
Thank I will take note of it ;)

[katoboy]

I had notice in the morning at 5.30am I open the uTorrent download speed is much faster around 50-56kb but in the afternoon it downgrade to 8-15kb the most presently I using singtel 8mb I think maybe the traffic problem :s8:

[guangzong]

Hi everyone,

I am on SingNet Broadband 10M plan. I used to be using the ancient utorrent 1.6.1, and could get download speeds of 1MByte/sec. After upgrading to version 1.8.3, i could only achieve max 400-500KB/sec, even after enabling uTP.

Today, i switched back to version 1.6.1, and my old kicka$$ speeds returned.

Guess the old ginger still rocks :s13:

[ionicle88]

for your information, my connection is in my sig...

so long as i am downloading any new torrents with a lot of uTP peers... i can get speeds like 600+ / 800+

i tried to torrent the michael jackson memorial... its blazing @ 800KB/s for me...

which is like so super fast~

[jacqqq]

how much is u guys net_maxhalf open? 50?

[rc79]

Click here for uTorrent 1.6.1 (http://www.oldversion.com/program.php?n=utorrent)

For the benefit of others.

[Knightrider3K]

seems like a lot of ppl experiencing lag... ISP prob or utorrent prob?

ask u all...

1) is it important to port forward correctly? like in utorrent's speed guide.. can check 1.
dun port forward will affect the dl speed?

2) the 'install IPv6 Teredo' setting on utorrent/preference/general... does it affect dl speed?

i think the only high speeds i get is from local peers, like what some mention here.


Thanks in advance.

[Mclairs83]

i uninstall 1.8.3 and install back my 1.8.2..

speed so far resume back to 50%.. not as fast as before..might be seeders problem.. nevertheless will still monitor.. so far now its back to my acceptable speed but still not as fast as before. ;)

i didnt istall/uninstall or change any setting... but my speed juz boosted back to 100K..

im kinda suspecting its the ISP or some underwater cable issue..... since i gotten feedback from some of myfrens who found their office & home's connection to be rather slow thse few days...

oddly, it happened on the day of michael jackson's live broadcast of his funeral....

or someone hijacking bandwidth?...

It anyone encounter that the downloading sign arrow instead of green arrow it become red arrow and advise :s11:

is there any way you can downgrade without affecting the downloading torrent?

[jacqqq]

what are u guys settings?

i only set half open to 50 and the udp thing to 255...

[rc79]

Uninstalled and installed 1.6

Speeds more 'normal' now.

At least a TV show will not take more than 1 hour.

[Mclairs83]

what are u guys settings?

depending on wads ur setup.

if u r using XP and ur TCP limit is only 50.. by setting 50, u won't be able to surf internet liao.

if u r on Vista SP2... the TCP limit is 0.. so u can set any figure..but dun put too high of course.

[Mclairs83]

redownload the torrent again lor.. it will check the hash of the file and see how many percent left to download.

i did a full uninstall in order to regain my "normal" speed back.

[guangzong]

Hello everybody,

I have tested, and confirmed that uTorrent version 1.6.1 does indeed give better speeds. I can achieve the maximum 1.2MB/sec on my SingNet 10M ADSL plan.

Have a good one :)

Was using v1.7.7. upgraded to v1.8.3 with the different settings, i.e. 10, 13, 15, 255, all resulted in slow torrenting speeds. Back to v1.7.7. Speed returned to the "usual" good rates.

Took advice to downgrade to 1.6.1. Speeds are back to normal. I hate to see my utilities bill for this month man. F#$% 1.8.3. That is juz screwed up.

[xiaoyuer89]

is this faster den xunlei(bitthunder)?

[ac3knight]

there's no purpose in running uTP + TCP concurrently
as long as TCP torrent traffic is detected, they can throttle your speeds

anyway i think starhub made changes to their throttling because it seems much faster now even though i didn't change my client or its settings.

they might have alleviated some of the throttling restrictions (for e.g. increase d/l and u/l speed caps), if they haven't already removed it entirely.

[liangtam]

Not when most users are still not on udp yet.

Just curious will download more than 5 content will it slow down the speed and surfing the net or uploading the page any advise :s12:

[ionicle88]

downloading many many torrents u can set the limit in the settings itself...

more importantly, see how much bandwidth 5 torrents take.. sometimes one single torrent can cap my 8Mbps @ 950Kb/s +-

so yup...

use utorrent and check port forwarding...

after which there is a guide on the webpage on different types of router u r using to do port forwards...

key to port forwards will ofc be the port number and the IP address that which the port is supposed to be open @.:s12::s12:

[mexuswch]

Those peers with [utp] attached to their ip doesn't seem to be providing exceptional upload speed as indicated by some of the above threads. Should I change the default setting of 13 to 15 or 255?

[Kopi_si]

Enabling UTP to 15 or 255 is to allow sharing using the UDP protocol between clients that have UTP enabled. Because it is more expensive for the ISP to bandwiidth control UDP protocol, chances are that our ISP don't although they still can.

Speed download depends on:
1. How many connected UTP client.
2. What is the upload speed of these UTP clients.

You will still have low download speed if your torrent have clients that are not UTP enabled. However, having many connected UTP enabled clients does not translated to high download speed also if these UTP enablec clients limit their upload speed e.g.10kb i.e. sharing at low speed.

You will only see improved in speed if your UTP clients upload to you at high speed i.e. they don't limit their upload speed.

So by getting more users to enable UTP, we should see increase in download speed.

It is therefore no harm to just set to 15 and 255.

You see random up and down in the download speed because of the above 2 factors.

[evilrion]

wow must bookmark this go home and try it out

[Just Me]

SNBB 8mbps, Tomato 1.23 w/WRT54G

13 = optimal
255 = moderate
15 = 0 DHT!

So far, UtP doesn't seem to be implemented in 1.8.3 yet, only 1.9

[seeyourhead_jiejie_v3]

mayb roh
moi on singnet 10mbps

[ac3knight]

anyway there's nothing wrong with the existing utorrent

im using 1.8.2 and even without the new alogrithm, i've recently seen speeds up to 1.4mb/s on a single torrent

when i checked the peer status in that single torrent, i was receiving data at 1.0mb/s from 1 USA peer alone.

if you compare the current speed situation in the past (when connectivity to USA peers was very poor), its either starhub has lifted throttling (or limited throttling to peak periods) or broadband users in the USA have miraculously seen their upload speeds increase dramatically.

i think its more likely that starhub has done something to their throttling

whats the best port range? 5000 and above ?

port number doesn't matter as long as you don't bind 2 apps to one port
use any number above 5000 can

[Soon__]

Is uTorrent still as clean? I heard rumours that since version later than 1.6, uTorrent seems to be working with ISP for illegal torrent, thus I am still using uTorrent 1.6 now.

[jacqqq]

1) Regardless of what settings, basic rule still applies. More seeders to leechers ratio
(Of course the are some special cases like super seeders


2) Always remember to port forward and add utorrent to windows's firewall

3) Upload does not affect download, in a sense i've un-capped my upload to 0 yet it was still downloading at 1.0 Mb/s

True, utorrent 1.8.3 together with the suggested settings works wonder on starhub MOL.
However the same setting doesn't enhance downloads using my singnet broadband.

streaming YouTube videos via Starhub is already such a pain, with this "UTP" implementation, yeah... increase in BT speed at the expense of other media...

Let the meltdown begin....

[teruzu_izumi]

May i check, other then changing the bt.transp_disposition to either 10,13,15 or 255.

What are the Necessary settings for SH MOL user running a dlink 615 router?

net open set to 50?
bt connect speed set to 50 as well?

Any other numbers that ive to change in order to see significant speed running on my utorrent?

other than that ensure ur port is forwarded properly.. fix a port, and force protocol encryption, lock max upload 25KB/s, max total global connections to 1000

then ofc i limit @ any one time only to have 5 torrents open @ anyone time..

those can play around..

but ofc sometimes the speed still slow becoz little people seeding.:):):)

you use xunlei you can just stay with xunlei for all the downloads enough le wat.. just remember to remove the file you download from the download location after completion to prevent secret uploading

even if u remove the file you download from the download location after completion , xunlei still contiune to uploading.

i have paused all dl and remove eveything from completed dl, move the completed file else where, but xunlei still find means to upload file to max speed.

[steve dino]

Xunlei so gd meh???

just changed from Utorrent to xunlei and i have alwys got max dl speed ever since . i can dl 12GB of content in 7hrs time. However previsously with Utorrent, only ~ 3GB

[psyko]

i think you didn't forward the port on your router right? if you did and you're not using windows firewall then you can uncheck everything in this pic. otherwise just leave them checked.

[IMG]http://i27.tinypic.com/vruio9.jpg[IMG]
leave it as it is. can try forced instead of enabled if you find that it gives you better speed.

i think you didn't forward the port on your router right? if you did and you're not using windows firewall then you can uncheck everything in this pic. otherwise just leave them checked.

leave it as it is. can try forced instead of enabled if you find that it gives you better speed.

refer to this link for the settings here: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=58404

hey guys can share ur settings for the following options?

i am not very sure which to tick and which to untick

http://i29.tinypic.com/j5kub9.jpg

Wah leow eh, see beh kiam siap 10kB/s upload speed man, should set it at least 60-70% of your subscribed upload speed lah. Imagine everyone set at 10kB/s upload nia, then come forum kau peh you're downloading so slowly from 10kB/s upload from others :s13:

[liangtam]

mata set too mani things sala riao

Ish muz, untick all option in first screenshot except windows firewall.

Upload speed is muz be more than 40kB/s

Global max connection 300
Max ppp 200
No. upload slot 6

[mata_hippo]

starfugs so unstable, sometimes ok sometimes really bad, set so high how i play games while climbing assuming currently it's really sucky :s22:

i tick randomize cuz i DMZ my computer

liangtam ur bottom 3 numbers sound abit conservative or does it rly work? :s22:

[evilster]

so which 1 is better xunlei or utorrent ? seems like each of them got their pros and cons..

[phuque99]

liangtam ur bottom 3 numbers sound abit conservative or does it rly work? :s22:

of course, my upload speed is unlimited (router has QoS), max connection is 100 nia, already hit 1000KB/s. It is not about conservative, it is about kiam siap or not kiam siap torrents. I think even if you have 10000 connection also useless if seeders are kiam siap with 10kb/s upload and very little slots to pass around.

WOW. i'm on starhub and just upgraded to utorrent 1.8.3 and changed value to 255.
The average d/l speed per torrent i used to get was between 5-50 kbps,
after changing it to 255, i'm getting between 150-200 kbps per torrent!!!!
That's amazing i havent ever hit 200 kbps on bittorent,
even after port forwarding etc.

[shearer_]

Change my setting from 13 to 15 and it is making me smile from ear to ear.

I just it above 200kb/s. Before I was at a rubbush 5kb/s.

Thank you for the post.

I am on SH 8Mbs plan.

The values was not stated to fix all problems mah. It has to depend on your connection and PC settings.
