Two uTorrent applications on two PCs downloading the same torrent

Hi,

I want to keep my torrents running at full speed. I want to use my other computer to download the same torrent to get a fast speed downloading. I am downloading a torrent at the moment that has only 1 ISO image of about 750MB. I tried to make them download to the same file, it worked but it looked like the second PC was writing over the first ones download, say 75.3% on PC1 and 74.8% on PC2. They wouldn't even out. Is there a way to make each uTorrent program work on a specific amount of pieces? Like, for example there is 750 1MB pieces, could I make PC1 work on 375 pieces each evening out the load and not create (from what it appeared) an overwrite?

Thanks in advance ;-)

You're asking µTorrent to split the job up. BitTorrent already does do that. Both computers will have the same IP, and peers often don't allow multiple connections per IP. The only difference then would be that you're splitting sources between two clients, but that is hardly any different from doubling the number of connections a single instance uses anyway.

So it's pointless to accelerating in this way.
