µtorrent 1.7.7 self limiting??
since a while i noticed that, when i upload shows to the tracker (or any other tracker for that matter)µtorrent resets to 5kbs overnight.
i normally always upload before i go to bed, and when i wake up in the morning i always see this setting in the torrent i just uploaded, and up until last night i never really payed attention, and reset the "limit" of the uploading torrent to 0 (=infinite) but last night i rememeber this issue, and very carefully set it to 0, and when i woke up this morning it was on 5kbs uploading speed limit again.....
at first i thought my cable provider might have had something to do with it, but that's BS of course, as they cannot change the torrent setting in my client.
so it has to be µtorrent....
anybody has this same issue??
could it be a general setting i overlooked?

I'm splitting this out to it's own thread so it gets more response. I'm not a uTorrent user, so I can't comment on this.

That is strange man. I am running the same version but am not experiencing that problem. I would be interested in knowing though. Are you sure it is not internet provider?

Cheers,

Don't know about 1.7, but in 1.6 there's a setting under Queueing Preferences:

When torrent has reached the seeding goal
Limit the upload rate to [use 0 to stop torrent]:

The seeding goal setting is just above this one (Seed While).

duede, that was it!!
dumb me.
setting that did it was:
When µtorrent reaches the seeding goal (was set to 150%) ..limit the upload rate to ..--> set to 5kbs..
man life can be simple, or rather, i was being lazy and dumb.
thanks for the tip!!

I have the exclusive copyright on both of those conditions simultaneously, sir!! I was beaten to the draw on asking you about that setting, however!! Good to see you were able to get on with it!!!
