So just for clarity you should always disable DHT, peer exchange and peer discovery for private trackers. If you don't you may well get banned. And you may not get credit for upload that you made either. For public trackers only, DHT may increase your speeds.
It also makes you a larger target for any would be rights holders who may not like torrenters. Peer discovery and exchange may make it easier to find obscure torrents but will also mean that your stats suffer. Also keep in mind that most server or seed box vendors do not allow public torrents. And that private torrent flags are not universally respected.
It's just not worth the sundry grief those settings can cause in various situations. Fortune and love favour the brave.
June 11, , AM. I want to add to what copper said and want to recommend that you use two torrent clients [I personally use uTorrent and Bitcomet]. You could use uTorrent for private trackers; 2. Whereas, for the client you are using for public trackers - do enable all of them. Peers are considered local if they are discovered by Local Peer Discovery, or if they are on the same LAN as the client.
This is used in the case where your WAN Internet IP address is not reported correctly to the tracker for whatever reason might be that you are behind a proxy server. Note that you can type a hostname in this field, so if you use a dynamic DNS service, you can enter your domain into this field. Also, realize that not all trackers pay attention to this information, and often ignore it. By webfact Started 14 hours ago. By snoop Started 3 hours ago. By simon43 Started Yesterday at AM.

CosmicSurfer 68 Posted March 5, Posted March 5, The tracker is recording my uploads but I have no way of knowing if the numbers are accurate.
They say the numbers may not be with DHT Enabled. What's your Feeling To Disable DHT This file contains Metadata such as hash value, file size and name, piece size and hash, tracker IP etc. By convention the torrent files use the. A value of special interest is the info-hash , which is a hash value calculated for the info key of the.
Most index sites display that value for each torrent they index, as does BitComet too for any torrent in its Task List, on its Summary tab.
This way by info-hash a torrent can be quickly tracked down on multiple index sites or other Internet locations without regard to it's name, thus easily avoiding fake torrents which try to impersonate a valid one by using the same filename. Especially in this last case confusion occurs, since one usually downloads both. Transfers in the BitTorrent Network, use pieces as trading units.
The torrent making application, upon creation of the. For each piece a SHA-1 hash-value is calculated, which is then put in the. When another peer receives a piece later, it calculates the hash value for it, using the same algorithm, and compares that to the value recorded in the.
Many clients will perform another integrity check upon the complete download of all pieces for a task. This consists of the same procedure as the one described above, except this time the client will calculate the hash value for each downloaded piece for that task and compare it against the expected value, which is already written inside the. Any piece which doesn' pass the hash check will be discarded, as it's considered corrupted that could happen either during transport or even at source.
This same procedure can be initiated manually by the user, usually by right-clicking the task and choosing the option to hash-check from the context menu. When a peer wants to join the swarm of a certain torrent it will need a bootstrap method. That is, it needs some way to learn about the other peers who share that torrent in order to begin negotiating connections and transfers with them. According to the original design of the BitTorrent protocol, that bootstrap mechanism is provided by the tracker later extensions also allow the use of other additional methods such as DHT.
The tracker, actually, is not directly involved in any data transfer and does not have a copy of the file s for the torrents it tracks. Once the list of peers is obtained, peer communication can continue without a tracker. However, clients report statistics information to the tracker periodically and in exchange receive updated information about new peers to which they can connect or about peers which have left the swarm.
The requests include metrics from clients that help the tracker keep overall statistics about the torrent. The response includes a peer list that helps the client participate in the torrent.
