That UDP transport layer should help you get around of ISP throttling issues because UDP doesn't have flags, follow up in order of packet and congestion control like that. Finally I able get around with my US ISP throttling with my linux iptables flexible firewall by dropping TCP RST flags on the floor.

I'm still throttled. I uninstalled my previous version of uTorrent and then installed this version. Am I suppose to mess around with the settings? |

Indeed, what anti-throtling guide?
I downloaded this new uTorrent and the download speed is still fucked with by Bell. |

said by erfans :lol it won't download anything now. speeds below 1 kb/s. will mlpp be effected by bell's new throttling? i can't stand this throttling. I don't understand, people in the US have a much faster speed than us and they are not throttled. so why in the world is canada with it's shitty connection throttling its customers? Greed. |

I'm jealous!
Have you setup a static IP? I'm all on default + port forwarded. |

Every day, any time of the day.
I will try to find a guide for setting uTorrent, and post it here. It made a difference for me ( went from 20 kB/s to 400 kB/s). |

OK, I used this guide. Only difference is that for listening port I used 50000, and opened that port in my 2Wire 2700HG-B.

Not sure how accurate it is, but interesting point of view. 'But this insight isn't shared by downloaders in general, most of whom have a sense of entitlement where their etiquette gene should be.'
Hehe!
»bennett.com/blog/ is pretty good reading.

| They have to sell advertising I guess and drama sells... Bennett does raise some interesting questions. A lot of network management tools don't deal with UDP very well, so the congestion issue may be valid.
I guess we'll see. As far as I know, a NetEqualizer doesn't care if you're running TCP or UDP so it may not matter much to us.

A lot of network management tools don't deal with UDP very well, so the congestion issue may be valid. The whole problem with the article is that it completely neglects the fact that Bittorent's implementation of uTP does provide congestion control. In fact, their quoted reason for switching to it is that TCP's congestion control wasn't good enough for them. They mention in the release notes as caveat that if you have both TCP and UDP enabled, the TCP connections will get preferential treatment, as that essentially was what one of the design objectives was: to not interfere with browsing. |

| I get your point at the local, end user level, but what's happening farther upstream? Is the upstream network impact better or worse? Or maybe there is no impact at all and nobody cares?
Put your network management hat on for a moment, is this a good, bad or indifferent thing?
