  1. I'm having erratic d/l speeds with uTorrent 2.0. I've switched back and forth between the latest 1.8.5 (17414) & 2.0 (17920). I've pulled the plug on my other computer and connect via wired, only computer connected is the uTorrent running computer. From my traffic graphs from my router, I see erratic up/down behavior. I disabled Bandwidth Management and it still is slow. I notice not many clients will connect with me. As soon as I run 1.8.5, MANY seeds & clients start uploading & downloading. Could it be uTP's fault, tryuing to prevent the saturation of my line? I've restricted my up/l to 80% of available bandwidth to allow plenty room for ack's to be sent. I've also tried it on a dd-wrt & also a Tomato router, and I get the same results. I'm still not particularly familiar with the more Advanced features, but how or what settings should I set in order for uTorrent 2.0 (17920) to behave more like 1.8.5? I love the new look of 2.0 and the extra features as well, so I'm wondering if I can set it so that at night it would behave like 1.8.5 and consume/saturate my connection since no one will be interactively connected. In the daytime, I can let it manage bandwidth. In it's current form, it slows all the torrents down considerably on my ADSL line even when nothing else is running. Also I can let my router shape traffic if the need arises, right now my router does not handle any QoS shaping or filtering. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Many Thanks! Simon
  2. On some torrents, Availability is clearly 0.999 and most peers are at 99.9, but WebUI shows Availability as 1.000, which is definitely WRONG.... Any ideas? thanx...
  3. Having WebUI with the same columns activated & in the same position as uTorrent's default 1st run would be great as the default WebUI position of the columns are a bit confusing to new users who's use to seeing them in the uTorrent positions & using uTorrent's descriptions of the columns. On a previous old version of WebUI, I had great difficulty moving the columns names around.
  4. Since it's not possible to for the column names of the webui to be consistent with uTorrent, then would it be possible to make it so that the default (1st run) of the webui will have the same positioning of the columns names and with the same ones enabled/disabled as the default (1st run) of uTorrent?
  5. Is it possible to create an option so that the WebUI's column locations and disabled/enabled column names are consistent between both the WebUI & the running version residing on my Media Server? If I modify/move/enable/disable one of the columns, the other one gets changed also. thanx..
  6. @Switeck: I only did everything "unforgiven_sh" recommended. No seeders were willing to upload to me, and other clients would connect but exchange very little with me. Perhaps they're putting me on the bottom of the queue or uTP needs some more tuning.
  7. unforgiven_sh: I've tried all of those, and still very slow bandwidth, since most in the swarm are still using 1.8.3, and they are all just refusing to upload to me when I'm using 2.0.
  8. Just tried/upgraded to "µTorrent 2.0 beta 16126" today & the speed remained VERY low for ALL torrents, at most ~20 kB/s for a very WELL seeded torrent, waited for hours and speed remained the same. Checked router's bandwidth graphs, thinking it might be d/l faster than what was displaying, but router says it's also d/l VERY slowly. Initiated 2 more torrents and speed was still slow. Downgraded back to 1.8.3 and speed went to several hundred kB/s in a matter of less than a minute.
  9. uTorrent 1.8.3 beta 15289 cannot seem to get to full speed even on highly seeded linux iso torrents. As soon as I drop back to last stable release, I can then saturate my connection.
  10. I've installed the latest 1.9 build 14981 alpha from the 1.77 stable and whereas before I can saturate my wireless 802.11n line (where even browsing no longer works or works VERY sluggishly), now it uses only about half the bandwidth. Using MS Vista, and even copying from a network share can also saturate my connection but latest uTorrent can't. I'm downloading from a server one floor down from me. It's all local transfer, no other network activity. Is uTorrent doing QoS and throttling back? I already have a router to shape the traffic if needed. I immediately switched back and traffic is once again blazing fast. You might wonder why I use uTorrent for local LAN transfers and the reason is because for time consuming, huge transfers, whereas any lengthy interruptions will cause a failure, uTorrent will gracefully resume. What settings should I use for 1.9 alpha so as to get maximum LAN transfers between computers or is this slowdown a "bug" of uTP?
