torrero Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Does µTorrent support Protocol Encryption (PE)?Yes, as of version 1.4.1 beta build 407. It is compatible with Azureus 2.4.0.0 and BitComet 0.63.Protocol Encryption (PE) is a joint specification between Azureus and µTorrent. It is designed to bypass throttling and/or blocking of BitTorrent traffic by an ISP.You can choose Protocol Encryption's mode of operation in Network. Here is an explanation of the various options you can choose from: * Disabled: Does not encrypt outgoing connections, but will accept encrypted incoming connections. * Enabled: Attempts to encrypt outgoing connections, but will fall back to an unencrypted mode if the connection fails. * Force: Attempts to encrypt outgoing connections, and will NOT fall back to an unencrypted mode if the connection fails. * Allow legacy incoming connections enables or disables incoming legacy (non-encrypted) connections. All modes will accept incoming encrypted connections (and the encryption is 2-way)!It is NOT recommended to turn off "Allow legacy incoming connections", unless you cannot have any non-encrypted connections (typically in conjunction with Forced), in which case turning off "Allow legacy incoming connections" is acceptable.

EddieV Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 I was just about to ask this question. I just became an uploader to a site and on my first upload of a torrent I could see alot on the stats page connected but saw NO ONE in my client, not one IP, anything. Then I talked with a friend and he said to look at PE, I set it to outgoing enabled and allow incoming legacyIs this correct. I think it is because the instant I did it while I had the upload going 31 people were on my client and my speed went from 1/4 speed to the max speed 2mbPlease advise if this is what I should have set up on my machines. I have two dedicated lines 6/2. THANKS so much for a YES leave it like you have it so I can feel assured. Thanks thanks thanksEd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torrero Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 EddieV, yes, outgoing enabled and allow incoming legacy are perfectly correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieV Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Thanks. What a HUGE difference it made. Just got posting rights and my first was decent but this one no one was connected but I could see them in the swarm I think they call it, as soon as I did the enable they came in like flies on sh@#.I love UT. Thanks so much for the reassuranceEddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kandyman3000 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Is Protocol Encryption (PE) fully encrypting the packets or can a packet sniffer on a network determine what kind of data is being transferred? Thanks! --kandyman3000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCRichter Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 IMO and only IMO, I've had Utorrent 2,0 set to FORCED and UNCHECKED for (PE) and found that works amazingly!! Hence the reason for my post about Utorrent 2.0. Not sure what it is about 2.0 but it seems to hide a LOT from my ISP so I'm sticking with it!! LOL. If there was another version that did EVERYTHING 2.0 does, I'd use that but haven't found one that does. LOL.Thanks for the info about PE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
