gabriel1475 Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Hello,I have utorrent version 2.0.4, which I've been using for weeks without a problem.But just yesterday, the "Bandwidth Allocation" stopped working. For no reason! It's always worked without incident over the last many years I've been using utorrent. Now, no matter what I set the upload or download speeds to, it seems to uploading/downloading at the same speed as if I'd set it to "unlimited". Of course, it doesnt say it's on Unlimited, it still shows the speeds I choose, but those arent the speeds it's using. So in a nutshell, when I set the upload/download to say, 1 kb/sec, it's still uploading/downloading at a high speed. Why?Did I perhaps change something accidentally? I cant find a setting within the setting that seem to control this. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gabriel1475 Posted September 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Thank you!!!Unfortunately, for noobs like me, knowing what terms like Global rate limit options, and Transport Overhead actually mean, would only come from doing homework on all the workings of utorrent. And foolish/lazy people sure hate homework. It would be nice if the preferences were a bit more noob-friendly, as far as the terminology. Us old people certainly dont take to these things as quickly as the younger fish do.So thanks, what you mentioned certainly solved that problem. Much appreciated!!

Switeck Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 I'm "older" too, having started out in the early days of personal computers. Many things today are much easier for the end user to do, if they'd only pick up a book or read a manual. I can't and won't do that for them.

gabriel1475 Posted September 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Three cheers for the old people!I see this thread is quickly becoming akin to "dueling ailments"...like old women seem to find so appealing. So therefore I will add:I've been around so long, that when I poop, only powered toast comes out!And:My first PC was a Commodore 64.Top that!

capa Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 Apply rate limit to uTP connections and to overhead (in preferences)Hello, I have the same problem and when I use this setting my overall download speed drops to nearly 0.Any suggestions ?In older versions you could put in an upload limit for each torrent. Why isn't that working anymore ?thnx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
