Pirate4Life Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 I recently upgraded to Vista and had everything running perfectly with a halfopen of 4 until yesterday, when massive problem started. Whenever I run uTorrent my internet stops in it's tracks (even though uTorrent works fine). To fix it I just have to close uTorrent and wait about 10 minutes. I have Time Warner internet with Vista Ultimate 64, the current uTorrent version, and have the same results with and without my WRT54G. Could this be ISP interference?

Pirate4Life Posted January 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 I've already tried everything except the TCIPIP.sys patch on the "SLOW/INTERRUPTED INTERNET CONNECTION OR OFFLINE TRACKERS while uTorrent is running" post. I could do it, but that is a last resort as it's hard to do, and it doesn't seem like the problem would appear suddenly after using uTorrent for a while.

Switeck Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 1st link in my signature...for speed settings.If you've set uTorrent's settings too high, the resulting overloads can mimic firewalled conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate4Life Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 So I decided to use the patch, which was much easier than I expected it to be, and my internet is working fine. I'd like to speed it up a bit though, as my internet is still being slowed by uTorrent. My settings are:net.max_halfopen 4IP resolving, DHT, UPnP, and NAT-PMP enabled, as they don't seem to make a difference.peer.resolve_country set to falsemaximum global number of connections 250So my question is, how much does the global number of connections and halfopen setting affect download speeds? Will I have lower download speeds if I set the halfopen to 2 and the max connections to 100? If I will, what do you guys think settings are a good compromise of download and internet speed?Also, what does the XP patch set the number at? Mine is currently at 1000. My internet gets faster the more I move it up, but I don't know if there's a limit I shouldn't surpass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 Your speeds won't significantly decrease (and are actually more likely to increase) if you reduce your halfopen and max connections in uTorrent.Additionally, the halfopen patch, although appears to make your internet go faster, causes other more long-term problems.You still haven't provided your hijackthis log or process explorer process list.
