3. configuration of uTorrent
In the "General" tab you can configure aspects of the program that do not affect the downloading of files, such as language, integration with Windows, etc.On the other hand, in the "Connection" tab is where you will find the necessary options to modify the variants in relation to the ports of downloads and speed of descent and ascent. You can choose any random port, make sure the port is open, but the speed will never be optimal. Here you have a tool to check it, just enter the number and will tell you if it is open or not.

4 maximum speed in uTorrent
Now, in "Wide band" section you will find a few lockers where you can select the maximum speed of descent and ascent. This will help us to control how much bandwidth we want to give to the program.If we leave the computer downloading without doing anything, it is always best to get the maximum speed, but if we are going to surf the internet we can place the cups up and down between 70% or 80% of the maximum. In addition, we may supplement these options with those laid down in the "Tail" section, configuring an optimal number of downloads (or shares) for our connection.
5 controls the Firewall, and make sure you get good seeds
We remind you that to get maximum download in uTorrent speed is good to turn off the firewall of Windows or the antivirus you are using (creating also an exception of antivirus program). In this way, uTorrent can operate at its maximum capacity.On the other hand you must remember that the download speed will be mediated and moderated by the number of users that share the file that you are downloading. And why you must make sure you have good "seeds", these are the users who are sharing the file you were looking for at that particular moment.
