Once the TCPIP.SYS file, has been patched, open µTorrent and navigate to: Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003 Server SP1 Download To change the limit on maximum concurrent half-open connections, effectively editing the TCPIP.SYS file, use the Event ID 4226 Patch.Ī complete guide can be found here: Windows XP SP2 and the Event ID 4226 Patch The drawback to this connection limit is that network intensive applications can be slowed, including Peer-to-Peer (P2P) clients like µTorrent. Windows Vista, Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003 Server SP1 limit the maximum concurrent half-open connections (SYN) to a maximum of 10 The Default Browser will open and test the chosen port's mapping. Click the " Test if port is forwarded properly" button to check the port you have chosen. Pick any random port between 4915, the "Unassigned" port range and enter that port number in the "Current Port" field. Port Forwarding rules are created per port, so a rule set up for port 6881 will only work for port 6881,Īnd therefore a port can only be used by one program at a time! When you have port forwarding rules set up, the router takes the data from the external IP Address / port number and sends that data to an internal IP Address / port number. Port Forwarding tells the router, to which computer, on the local area network (LAN) to send the data. ![]() When a computer on the internet sends data to the external IP Address of your router, the router needs to know what to do with the data. Software ports are numbered connections that a computer uses to sort network traffic.Ī port may support incoming traffic, outgoing traffic, or both. To get the most from your given network connection it is vital you have an open port and that it is properly forwarded through the Router and/or Modem. This section will cover the "Installer Version" of µTorrent. The only difference between the two is that the "Installer Version" will create "Start Menu" and "Desktop" shortcuts during the installation process however, on first run, the "Stand Alone Version" will ask if you would like to make shortcuts on your start menu and desktop. The "Installer Version" and a "Stand Alone Version". On the Download Page, are two available stable versions of µTorrent.

My hope is that everyone, to some degree, will find this guide helpful. Some calculations are needed, but nothing beyond simple arithmetic. To this end, most settings are color coded and highlighted in the illustrations a brief explanation is also included. I have tried to make this guide clear, concise and complete. This Guide will cover the "Installation", "Setup" and "Optimization" of the µTorrent BitTorent Client. Unlike many torrent clients, µTorrent does not tax valuable system resources typically using less than 6MB of memory. Additionally, µTorrent supports the protocol encryption joint specification and Peer Exchange (PEX). µTorrent has most of the features common to other BitTorrent clients, including bandwidth prioritization, scheduling, RSS auto-downloading, and Distributed Hash Table (DHT). ΜTorrent is a powerful and efficient BitTorrent client for Windows. ΜTorrent Installation, Setup and Optimization ![]()
