Use one in range 49152 to 65535 (unregistered, dynamic and/or private ports).

Here you can set maximum number of peers to connect to per single torrent. Setting 45 to 65 maximum connections per torrent is generally enough, though people with more bandwidth can configure this higher, together with a higher number of upload slots and a higher upload speed.

Setting this high will not automatically improve your speeds. Speed is more dependent on the health of the torrent swarm and your own upload behavior.

Computers that are behind a router cannot accept incoming connections, which can hurt their download speed. Port forwarding is a solution to this problem. If you have UPnP enabled router, use UPnP plugin to forward needed ports in few mouse clicks. Otherwise visit <ulink url="http://portforward.com">http://portforward.com</ulink> to learn how to do this on your router.

Not seeding after they have finished downloading. It is important that peers with 100% of data keep torrent running for others to download. Share ratio of 1.0 is a minimum you should seed for every torrent you download.

Torrent is a small file that contains information about the data, but not actual data. You can not download without a torrent file! Originally they are known as BitTorrent files, but because of there extension (<literal role="extension">*.torrent</literal>), more people refer to them as torrents.

||||
<para><indexterm><primary>search</primary></indexterm>
|
||||
Many websites provide search for torrents by searching trough information they contain. This is similar to a web search, with an exception that links in the results do not send you to other sites, but rather to torrent files.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<tip><para>
|
||||
With the Search plugin, you can search and open torrents directly from &ktorrent;.
