revnice Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Good info - wouldn't I want everything enabled all the time (when possible)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 You can turn on DHT/LPD/PEX in uT but if the torrent is private, they are off for the current torrent job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

talkstosocks Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I turn of DHT because it kills my router, that's the only reason I know of to turn these things off, though I'm sure there are more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 DHT continues to run even if you are only using private trackers...those particular torrents aren't "linked" into DHT, but your computer still acts as a DHT node. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
