Bingeljell Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 Greetings So it turns out that my ISP has a nice throttle on all my TCP ports, at least the ones I've tried. But after a little testing and R&D, I don't think they care much about UDP ports.So a few questions; if appropriate: 1) Is there such a thing as tcp > udp > tcp converting so I can try to up my download speeds?2) If not, is there any other way I can make UDP my default port setting / preference?3) If so, could someone point me in the right direction?As you've probably guessed, my knowledge in the field of networking is very basic and based on what I know of TCP / UDP, it doesn't seem logical. But hey, what's the harm in asking eh?(As a brief background: I'm from India and our ISPs are just don't like sharing! I had a brief respite of a 40mbps line here [which is VERY rare for an individual connection] but they seemed to have changed their mind about that, have cut me back down to 1mbps. This is me living in a 100kbps nightmare!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsoran Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 UDP is preferred by µTorrent so any other µT users hitting on you will drop TCP automatically. The only other thing I can suggest is to make sure you've selected your upload speed in CTRL+G, bad settings make for slower speeds and pissed off ISP's.
