In fact, if you meet all requirements, you will be able to run uTorrent on virtually any Linux flavor, the distros a mention on the article are the ones that i tried myself.
In this step we have two main options, for ubuntu and debian systems, there are packages and for all other distributions we are going to use the Debian package. You can also download other versions of uTorrent for Linux and choose the package for your system. Now check if you are ready to run the utserver binary with the ldd script:. If the above command gives you any output, some runtime dependencies are missing, otherwise you are done installing, jump to Running uTorrent section.
The following image with the complete output of ldd shows that the shared libraries libssl. The shared libs libssl. On Ubuntu and Debian try to install the package libssl1. Depending on your system the there may be a package or not. Note that we are configuring it to build shared libraries, that wil create libssl.
To avoid conflicts with the current OpenSSL shipped with your system, copy only the files you need. Once you solved the problem of missing dependencies, enter the uTorrent directory and take a look on the output of the following command:. Inside uTorrent directory, run the utserver binary with the settings path pointing to it:. Peer-to-peer technology is great in the sense that it allows different users to have different pieces of a file that each user can download from the other users on the network.
This method can really speed up the download process. Of course, before you go ahead and learn how to speed up uTorrent, you should first check if you have a fast enough internet connection. If your internet service provider is not giving you the speeds that it promises, then speeding up uTorrent is not going to help.
To check the speed of your internet connection you can use tools like Security Gladiators Speed Test Tool. Once you get to the SpeedTest tool, just click the button that says Go. This will allow the website to give you a hard figure on the speed of your connection. The rest of the guide will continue with the assumption that your internet speeds are adequate for downloading large torrent files. You are free to check or uncheck the box.
After that, you should click on Preferences and then on Connections. From there, take a look at the option that says Add Windows Firewall Exception. Make sure the box next to this option has a check.
While it may be tempting to do so, you should know that downloading multiple files at once has an adverse effect on your internet connection performance. If you see that one of your torrents is taking a bit too long, try pausing all the other torrent downloads. By doing this, the entirety of your available bandwidth is dedicated to downloading the large file instead of being split across several downloads. As mentioned earlier, torrenting only works because the load of the available files is shared between different servers.
Now, if a torrent is taking too long to download, one of the best things you can do to solve the problem is to look at the number of seeds for the file.
Most torrent clients have a column for this with the title SL, S or Seed. In the end, it depends on the torrent client you are using.
If you see that the content that you want to download only has two or three seeders, then you are going to have to wait for a long time before your download is completed. We suggest you go to another torrent site and try to find the same file with more seeders available. Assuming that you have your machine close enough to your Wi-Fi router, try switching to a wired connection.
If your computer is too far away, you should think about moving it a bit closer to the router so that you can use an Ethernet cable. The main advantage of using a wired connection is that it reduces interference which some users experience when there are many other internet-enabled devices connected to the same Wi-Fi signal.
This interference can be avoided by using a physical connection to the router instead of a wireless one. To provide more bandwidth to a given file you have to set its bandwidth value to High. The easiest way to do this is to right-click on the file that you want to download quickly and then choose the option that says Bandwidth Allocation.
Then set the value to High. The contrary is true as well. In the end, it all comes down to your situation. Is it really the best one? Is having the latest version of uTorrent really going to help your torrent downloading experience?
