viagna Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 I wonder what are the differences between UDP and HTTP protocols for torrent trackers. Also, which one provides for faster downloads and faster uploads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 The UDP tracker protocol is largely useless and poorly thought out.Nothing to do with the tracker has any bearing on your download speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viagna Posted January 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 So if I have a torrent, tracked by either UDP or HTTP, I should choose HTTP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 µTorrent doesn't support the UDP tracker protocol, largely because it is VERY poorly thought out.But as I said. NOTHING TO DO WITH THE TRACKER HAS ANY BEARING ON YOUR DOWNLOAD SPEEDS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
