Fight Throttling! Use Encryption!!!

If you download the latest beta builds of Azureus and uTorrent you will increase your speeds. Just make sure to enable encryption in the options menu. Both of these clients use the same protocol for encryption, so you'll have a huge user base.

In uTorrent, just go into other options and select Enable. That is it. Leave allow legacy incoming connection checked.

The Azureus beta with encryption is a little hard to find and install right now, I'd recommend uTorrent.

if this works it would totally kick ass, I'll have to give it a try once my current torrent finishes.

In uTorrent encryption is under other options.

I hope you're using Azureus 2.3.0.7, or you are only experiencing the placebo effect , but it does work. For example, in uTorrent if you look in your Peers tab in the Flags column an e or E indicates that you're using an encrypted connection. Give uTorrent a try, it's an amazing app.

Just keep in mind that the speed increases will not be that dramatic yet, as encryption has only been offerred for only a few days. Encryption will be a standard option in all of the future releases of uTorrent and Azureus. Everyone will be able to receive encrypted connections by default, but those that are throttled need to enable their outgoing connections.

I still do not see the encryption option in "other option". Do I use both Azureus and utorrent or just use one or the other?

Use uTorrent, it's the simplest to set-up at this moment. Just make sure you download the beta.

Tried using it but don't see an improvement at all. Don't see it as encrypted under flags either. Using the latest beta utorrent.

You won't see an improvement yet, unless you're lucky. The problem is that other people have to be using the latest BT client with encryption. Just give it more time... More and more people will start using it as Azureus and uTorrent are populor BT clients.

You can find the Azureus with the encryption here:

»www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/F···us.shtml

You have to install this jar file over a previous installation...
