     Following procedures can be followed to increase your torrents downloading speed:


    # Firewalls can block nearly all of the ports used by P2P clients. To ensure the BitTorrent ports are made available to requesting clients. Turn off the router firewall and enable uPnP features allow the BitTorrent ports to pass through.

    # Firewalls can block nearly all of the ports used by P2P clients. To ensure the BitTorrent ports are made available to requesting clients, a home router or firewall can be manually configured to accept them. Most home routers possess a feature called “Port Range Forwarding” to do this. This feature allows the administrator to tell the firewall where traffic for a given port number should be directed. Example: you can set the port forwarding setting and ip address is your computer ip address




    *  A BitTorrent client normally associates the TCP port number 6881. However, if this port is busy for some reason or there are other bit torrent client using the same port, the client will instead try successively higher ports (6882, 6883, and so on up to a limit of 6999). In order for outside BitTorrent clients to reach this one, they must be able to connect to the correct port.

    * For BitTorrent, many home users set up port forwarding on the TCP range 6881-6889. These ports must be directed to the computer running the BitTorrent client. If more than one computer on the network may run BitTorrent, a different range such as 6890-6899 or 6990-6999 can be used for each. Remember that BitTorrent uses ports in the 6881-6999 only.


    I hope this configuring router port forwarding tutorial will benefit for those torrent user want to improve p2p files downloading speed. Especially those torrent user that stay on some country, which their Internet services provider like to limit the connection offered on the these bit torrent ports. Hope that this torrent tips can help you increase torrent downloading speed significantly.
