Do we really need to forward ports?

[power]

torrents does require port forwarding for good performance .. AS said above use azuereus connection wizard to see if u get nat error .. Azuereus is a very good torrent client but only bad thing abt it is its memory usage (java :lookaround: ) so if u have good 256 mb or more ram then it should run very fine or u can use some lite torrent client like ziptorrent or bitcomet tooo .. but forward ports in ur router

dude... bitlord is a software for dummies..... azureus has awesome customization.... u can add plugins n wat not.. sexy graphs n statistics.... n.... even torrents are p2p

there are clients taht do work better than azuereus without eating more than 50 mb ram and showing all the eye candy

I do not eye candy
I just want bloody speed n download.
Which i get frm bitlord.
azuereus is good.
BUT
i run several other app. side by side so overall system performence goes down.
where bitlord it takes only 10-20 mb of my RAM.

actually if u want a client which is not only lite but also has the performance, customizations & functions like AZ use utorrent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well it really depends on wat client u like.... or are more comfortable with.. some times for some people some clients work and some dont, even in the same environment! .. for a long time i used bit tornado. still do.but for some reason it dont give me remote connections even when i'm in bridge mode! . sheesh. wat tranny is that! that's one client that really gives max speeds on almost any torrents! hehe ..but now use azureus.. love it totally.but sometimes dont like it so much esp when it dont give that good speeds but nonetheless... its the best one out there ..other clients that i would recommend would be utorrent/bitcomet/abc(old but still good).

µTorrent is the best...small, light, and easy to use...

Of all the torrent softwares out there, I prefer uTorrent. My current download speed is around 190+ KBps and upload hovers at 28KBps. I set my download speed on uTorrent to unlimited and my upload speed at 40KBps. (I know the max that MTNL allows is 30KBps but I think I am trying to fool the software :blink: ) It's working for now! I read on the uTorrent forum that you should try to keep your upload speed at 1/6th the download speed. I will try and post that link here If I stumble upon it again.

 

[coolbuddy_79]

why don't u just set upload to unlimited??

Tried that but had no luck. I stuck to the 1/6 rule.
