rhcp1983 Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 I have a 4.8Mbps/256kbps connection. Which is the best setting for me? I use win xp with sp2 patched to 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bit_king Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 Best to leave things on default. Just make sure you cap your upload speed to around 15-20kbps with your connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boo Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 cap your upload speed 15-20kb/s and net.max_halfopen to 48 and diskio.write_queue_size to atleast 5000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhcp1983 Posted December 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 What about number of upload slots per torrent, number of global connections and number of connected peers per torrent? I use port number 50000.I've create an exception for this port on windows firewall.Is it a good port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAbReAkA Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 it doesnt matter which port u are using as long as it is not a system used port.. using bigger numbers is a better choice.. 50000 is okbtw what is max_halfopen? what is it doing?

1c3d0g Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 ● net.max_halfopen is how many connection attempts µTorrent will make at any one time. This value must NEVER be higher than 8 for unpatched Windows XP SP2 systems!http://www.utorrent.com/faq.php#What_do_all_those_settings_in_Advanced_Options_do.3F :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow_cruiser Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 Thanks for the link 1c3d0g but there's two options in utorrent that are not in that FAQ. What do these two mean?. I'm using 1.2.3.Beta.Build-360 by the way.bt.connect_speed = 30(default)peer.lazy_bitfield = false(default) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 lazy_bitfield IS in the FAQ, and bt.connect_speed is new bt.connect_speed controls how fast ut connects to new peers, higher numbers being faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow_cruiser Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 Thanks Firon. I guess I was lazy and didn't search the FAQ properly. CTRL + F is your friend:)Anyone have a recommendation for bt.connect_speed?. I know its new but just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 The default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
