Queueing

[huntersprodigy]

When setting the 'Maxim number of activer torrents (upload or download)' under the queueing options to the number of torrents I am downloading, why after clicking OK and then going back to uTorrent later it has set itself to 2 and uTorrent is only downloading two torrents and the rest are idle.

What are your maxi upload speed and your queueing settings please?

There's usually a conflict in uTorrent's settings to cause uTorrent to "ignore" queue limits and only download 0-2 torrents at a time.

I have had the same issue for last 6-7 weeks... any help?

The maxi upload speed after running the speed test is set at 256k. If by 'maxi upload speed' you mean the 'Maximum upload rate (kB/s)' under 'Bandwidth' on the 'Preferences' tab, this is manually set to 0, this is a further issue however, as with the original question, when I go back to this tab, the 0 has been automatically changed to a different number, as has the 'Number of Connections'. If by 'maxi upload speed' you mean on the uTorrent window, after right clicking on a torrent, 'Bandwidth Allocation', 'Set Upload Limit', this is set to 'Unlimited'.

Under 'Queueing' on the 'Preferences' tab, the 'Queue Settings', 'Maximum number of active torrents) upload or download)' is set to the number of torrents I am downloading which is 211, this is also the number to which I set 'Maximum number of active downloads', after clicking OK and then later going back to this tab the numbers have changed from 211 and 211 to 2 and 1 respectively.

Also, after setting the 'Connection Type' under 'Speed Guide' to the relevant speed at my location, after going back this tab has also changed back to 'Current Settings' rather than staying at the set limit.

Does it make a difference to be downloading the full 211 torrents, or should I try a smaller number of torrents and then when a torrent finishes add a stopped one to the ones downloading.

Could someone assist on this as it's annoying to say the least as I am leaving my computer on for a reason so it downloads the torrents and when returning it has automatically changed the numbers of the above fields and is only downloading two torrents.

It completely murders your connection to try to run all your torrents at once, you should run a sane number (less than 5) at a time and let uTorrent handle the queueing.
