I have used Bitlord and atm am using Azureus but they dnt seem 2 b very gd. Can ppl pls tell me wat they think the best torrent client is?

I like using BitTorrent. Also i remember reading somewhere on this site about a way to increase the Download speed of torrents a lot. I'll post it up here if i find it, but use BitTorrent.

I have installed uTorrent but theres a couple of things I dnt understand. The seed test thing and the forwarded port. Can sum1 pls simplify these for me. Thanx

pfft i use bitlord and it works amazing. I just had 600 down and 400 up just yesterday on 3 torrents. You just need to find your torrents that have lots of ppl seeding. I use Torrents.to to search for my torrents. Works GREAT!

You only have to foward ports if your behind a router, look up a tutorial for more info. You can get to most router UCPs by typing in 192.168.0.1 in your browser.
Also utorrent is the most lightwieght client, and wont slow down your system alot like clients do.

if you have Azureus and set the port to 7000, i read it is a standard open unused port on a n Azureus wiki. ive gotten up to 150-170kb/s on dl with at&t dsl. it also works with utorrent. well for me at least.

Now that you mention it, Bitlord makes my computer sound like its trying to take off down the airstrip.

Yeah I can play preety demanding games while running with almost zero performance loss. uTorrent FTW!

loool In the recent months ma laptop has started makin loud noises, it the fan but dnt know y coz it never used 2 b loud.

yeah i know its the fan, but the whole system is taxed down when running torrents. Especially if its more than one going at a time.
