chebby Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 hi all. have been using utorrent for a while now and when i was using it recently i had over 7000 seeds and over 2000 peers but it was only using 73 seeds and 12 peers. my question is this: can you change a setting so that it uses more/all of the seeds and will it help, if so, how do you do it? thanks.chebby.

DreadWingKnight Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 can you change a setting so that it uses more/all of the seeds and will it help, if so, how do you do it? thanks.It won't help in the slightest. Connecting to more peers just eats up more of your connection with protocol overhead and increases the chance of crippling substandard networking hardware.

DreadWingKnight Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 Nope. They have no incentive to upload other than randomized connection factors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
