kinetix63 Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Hi Guys,Not sure if this needs to go in bugs, so I'll try here first!Been using uTorrent since 1.0 and loved it. Upgraded this morning to uTorrent 1.1.6.1 and ever since I've had problems with browsing the web whilst a torrent is downloading - I just get a whole load of page timed out errors. Close the program, and all is fine. I've left the program open for 2 hours thinking it might just be hogging some bandwidth as it connects to peers and seeds, but even after that it still does the same. Pertinent info that might help:UK ADSL connection. 2MBits down, 256kbits up.Port set to 32459, no randomisation6kb/s global upload rate30kb/s global download rate100 max peers per torrent500 max global connectionsAny suggestions at all guys?Cheers,Paul.

Jade Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 I have exactly the same problem: time out on web pages as long as uTorrent is running. I use mostly default settings. Any advice is kindly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keloran Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 use the schedule and turn it all to limited (light green)then set the upload/download to rates you wantnow you wont/shoudlnt have any problems, and if you wana go on a bandwidth requiring game, reduce the speeds or stop the torrents till finished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paritybit Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 I know this is no help but I have found that uTorrent doesn't hog traffic like other clients. Not sure how but I have uTorrent nearly maxed out and my web surfing is much more stable than it used to be with other clients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosblade Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Indeed, Happened to me too when my connection was maxed out. Try capping your upload rate to around %80~ of your upload rate, and enable 'Connect To Peers Slower' in the advanced options pane. That worked for me, So i hope it will help you too.

kinetix63 Posted October 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 The weirdest thing about it is though, that this ONLY happened after I updated to 1.1.6 - everything was fine up until then. I've changed no settings or anything. Tis very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jade Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I finally solved my problem! uT blocked my XP (built in) DNS client for some reason. See this thread for my workaround: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=4725 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
