Upload Limit Bug?

[Tpiom]

I've found a bug, when I set my upload limit to 75 kb/s it sometimes raises the upload to 80-120 kb/s. Kind of annoying, and I can not control it. I had to lower my upload limit to 20-30 kb/s to GET it upload 75 kb/s. Hope it will be fixed soon...

Do you have the limiting of local peers enabled or disabled?

[Tpiom]

If you mean: "Enable Local Peer Discovery".. I've it checked (think it's enabled)

[DreadWingKnight]

No I don't.

I mean "Limit Local Peer Bandwidth"

[Tpiom]

No it isn't enabled.. Shall I enable it?

[DreadWingKnight]

Yes.

[Tpiom]

OK, but that didn't help. I just noticed that it's only ONE torrent that overrides the limit, have even limited the speed on that torrent. Though with no success...

EDIT: And a very weird thing, see.. When the torrent client is minimized it overrides the speed (highly) but when I look at it I can see the speed goes down to my limit again!

Is there a "L:" in the µTorrent status bar? If so, what speed is it showing?

[Tpiom]

Nope, can't find any L...

[Ultima]

Doesn't make much sense... Can you upload a copy of your settings.dat here for us to test?

[Ahaa]

Had the exact same problem. uTorrent 1.7.5 and Vista 64bit Home Premium.

In the settings panel I had "Limit local peer bandwith" checked. I unchkecked it and hit apply -> ok. Then checked it again and hit apply -> ok. That seemed to fix the problem.

[Tpiom]

Yeah.. That did the same for me. Thanks!

Still, you should've posted the .dat file so that the devs could see what was wrong with it. Meh.
