uTorrent slower than Vuze

[mvbc85]

I had very slow speeds on uTorrent for a couple of months, most of the time there were thousands of peers but I could only connect to a couple of them at a time.

I tried everything on uTorrent and on my router, and even thought of calling my ISP, but then I tested the same torrents on Vuze and the speed were much better, maxing out my connection even before forwarding the port.

I "uninstalled" uTorrent and installed it again to see if that solved the issue, but it's still the same.

What should I do?

I already tested everything on the guide.

Thank you very much

Options/Preferences/Bittorrent. Disable uTP and see if it helps. This gives you uTorrent running as Vuze.

This doesn't help - enabled or disabled, uTorrent chokes the computer at 500k down and 200k up, when I was going at 750/300 on Vuze with no problems whatsoever. I'm at 2mbit down, 750k up, so I know it's not my connection. Tried limiting connections, same exact settings as Vuze. No dice. encryption off, on, forced - no difference. Can't even browse Youtube with uTorrent leeching, it's ridiculous.

Other computers on the network are fine, things are fine with Vuze - I don't understand why so many people use uTorrent, it's like the people making it aren't even using it. If the most recent versions of Vuze weren't such crashy freezy pieces of sh­it, I'd have given up on uTorrent long, long, LONG ago. barf
