kwsaint Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 Any suggestions on how to increase the download speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquidshokk Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 Limit uploads speed to 12kb works for me. Forgotten why but was something I read when I investigated this myself some time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Posted 17 April, 2011 Share Posted 17 April, 2011 Do you recommend utorrent over vuze? I use vuze right now but I've heard good things about utorrent. I tried it about a year ago and was a little confused with the interface and how to navigate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baj Posted 17 April, 2011 Share Posted 17 April, 2011 its most likely your ISP limiting your speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquidshokk Posted 17 April, 2011 Share Posted 17 April, 2011 I tend to use freedownloadmanager which manages ALL downloads not just torrents. So whatever you are downloading you can pause, stop it etc and carry it on later. Also when using it at work it makes it less obvious that it's torrents you're downloading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom8558 Posted 17 April, 2011 Share Posted 17 April, 2011 Yeah I would recommend uTorrent over Vuze tbh. It's just simplier and, for me, easier to configure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquidshokk Posted 18 April, 2011 Share Posted 18 April, 2011 I simply mean by not having uTORRENT installed. I know full well they could find out in an instant if they looked further than my programs list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
