does 1kiB mean pause?

Post by financialwar »

if I set the speed to 1KiB, is that the same as pause since I can not do 0KiB, using v3.2.1.

I hope you will never get an answer here. Bittorrent is about sharing, not limiting the speed to 1 KiB/s.

Dude, I think you misunderstood me, I was asking because I need to pause torrent that is both download and upload during peak hours so that my family does not complaint. I still seed at full speed when torrenting.

Sorry then. What you're looking for is on Settings -> Speed -> Alternative Global Rate Limits (combined with Schedule). But if you have many torrents maybe is better to pause all (right-click on system tray icon) during peak hours. That's because of the connections made by any torrent client if many torrents are still active, which will result in a partial "clogging" of your internet connection (especially with low-speed connections).

So there is no way to pause it completely and automatically? In uTorrent there is a scheduler where it you pause it, make it slow or at full speed.

Yeah, it seems that the only solutions is pause them manually every day OR set them to DL/UL speed at 1 KiB/s by schedule...
