Shinigamii100 Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I'm very new to the world of torrents, I actually dowloaded my first one 2 days ago. Well, I didn't really know what seeders and leechers were and I didn't bother to find out. So the first few things I downloaded I was getting decent speeds, but now on my 5th download I'm getting reaaalllly slow speeds. Sometimes it completely stops. So I did a little research and apparently after a torrent is done downloading I have to some how seed it? And if I don't I become labeled as a Leecher and my download speeds decrease or something? I know I should of found this out before I torrented but I didn't, so I'm trying to fix it now.So from what I've gathered I need a higher share ratio to get better speeds. My share ratio right now is .361. Is it possible to get that back up and how?Sorry if all these questions have been answered somewhere. If someone could just direct me to the info I need I'd be grateful.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 That's true on private trackers where you need to maintain a sharing ratio. Not with public torrents.Anyway you have to set the Bandwidth & Queueing in µT.http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=58404 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
