HOW TO SPEED UP DOWNLOADS WITHOUT ANY SOFTWARE

Hi friends! Today, I am going you to tell 5 ways to speed up download. The ways are as follow-


1. Cap your upload (most important)
Limit your upload speed to approximately 80 percent of your maximum upload rate. You can check your upload speed over here (never trust your isp). Once you know your maximum upload speed, change the max upload (to 80%) speed in your client’s preferences.
Don’t get me wrong, everyone should share as much as possible, but if your upload rate rched it’s max, your download rate suffers significantly.

2. the max TCP connections
If you’re on XP sp2, your TCP connections are limited to a maximum of 10. This seriously hurts your downloading speed because it wont let you connect to a high amount of ip s. It is supposed to slow down viruses because their sprding strategy is to connect to a high amount of ip s, but it also cripples your downloads.
A nice way to fix this is to download this , it allows you to set the maximum allowed connections to any you want. Any between 50 and 100 is ok .

3. Check seeds and peers
A simple tip, but o so important. Always look for with the best seed/peer ratio. The more seeds (compared to peers) the better (in eral). So 50 seeds and 50 peers is better than 500 seeds and 1000 peers. So, be selective.

4. Change the default port.
By default, Bit uses a port 6881-6999. Bit accounts for a lot of the total internet traffic (1/3), so isp’s like to limit the connection offered on the these ports. So, you should change these to another range. Good clients allow you to do this, just choose anything you like. If you’re behind a router, make sure you have the ports forwarded or UPnP enabled.

5. Disable Firewall
It sucks. Firewall hates P2P and often lds a life of it’s own. So disable it and get yourself a decent firewall, Kerio or Zone Alarm for example.

ENJOY!
