You can test your bandwidth over  <a href="http://torrentspeedtest.com/torrent-speed-test.html" target="_blank">here</a> (stop all download activity while testing).  </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #444444;">Also make sure that you applied the tips provided in our previous posts.  Note that there’s a huge difference between kb/s (kilobits/second) and kB/s (kilobytes/second). To be  precise, kB/s = kb/s divided by 8. In this tutorial we use kB/s (like most torrent clients do). This means that you  might need to calculate your max speed in kB/s yourself if  the speedtest only gives you the results in kb\s (so divide by<br />8 then).  </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #444444;"> Settings 1-4 can be found in the options, settings or<br />preference tab of most torrent clients. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #999999;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>1. Maximum upload speed</b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: #666666;">Probably the most important setting there is. Your<br />connection is (sort of) like a pipeline, if you use you<br />maximum upload speed there’s not enough space left for the<br />files you are downloading. So you have to cap your upload<br />speed. Use the following formula to determine your optimal<br />upload speed…<br />80% of your maximum upload speed<br />So, if your maximum upload speed is 40 kB/s, the optimal<br />upload rate is 32kB/s<br />But keep seeding!</span></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>2. Maximum download speed</b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: #666666;">Although setting your maximum download speed to<br />unlimited may sound interesting, in reality it will only hurt<br />your connection. If you still want to be able to browse<br />properly, set your maximum download speed to:<br />95% of your maximum download speed<br />so if your maximum download speed is 400 kB/s, the<br />optimal download speed is 380kB/s</span></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="color: black;"><b> 3. Maximum connected peers per torrent </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="color: black;"><b><span style="color: #666666;">Yet another setting that you don’t want to max out. I<br />experimented quite a lot with the max connected peers<br />settings and came to the conclusion that both high and low<br />number hurt the download speed of a torrent. The following<br />setting worked best for me.<br />upload speed * 1.3<br />so, if your maximum upload speed is 40 kB/s, the optimal<br />amount of connected peers per torrent is<br />40 * 1.3 = 52<br />I didn’t noticed a difference for fast or slow connections here.</span></b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="color: black;"><b>4. Maximum upload slots </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="color: black;"><b> <span style="color: #666666;"> 1 + (upload speed / 6)<br />So, if your maximum upload speed is 30 kB/s, the optimal<br />number of upload slots is<br />1 + (30 / 6) = 6</span></b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="color: black;"><b>5. Usenet  </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="color: black;"><b><span style="color: #666666;">Usenet is an alternative to BitTorrent and considered to be<br />the most “private” way to share files. In other words, no<br />MPAA or RIAA watching your back. It is fast, has a lot of<br />content and amazing download speeds without having to<br />configure your download client.<br />The biggest disadvantage is that high speed Usenet servers<br />are not free. You need at least some kind of paid subscription<br />plan to be able to get decent speeds on Usenet. For some<br />people this is not a problem, their argument often is that<br />they already pay a lot of money for high speed broadband<br />access, so why not pay a little extra to get the best speeds out<br />of it.</span></b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="color: black;"><b><span style="color: #666666;"></span></b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="color: black;"><b><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span> </b></span></span></div></div>
