Tips and Warnings. Related Articles. Article Summary. Part 1. Understand what torrenting means. When you speak of "torrenting," you're talking about using the BitTorrent peer-to-peer protocol to download files. There are a variety of torrenting clients software you can use to download files using the BitTorrent protocol, including one that's just called BitTorrent. Torrents themselves are small files which tell your torrenting client how to connect to other users sharing the file you want to download.
Your torrenting client then pieces these chunks together and gives you the completed file. Because you are connecting to multiple computers simultaneously, torrents are one of the fastest ways to download large files, and they don't require a central server like a website or FTP would.
Despite what you may have heard, torrenting is legal and has many legitimate uses. However, torrenting copyrighted content like movies, TV shows, and non-freeware apps is illegal—only download torrents that are legal in your area. In order to download torrent files, you'll need what is called a torrenting client—just think of "client" as another word for "app" or "program.
There are a variety of torrent clients out there, all with different features. Deluge, on its own, is pretty basic, but you can download plugins that expand its functions. Transmission is known for being lean, fast, and customizable, especially on macOS and Linux. Both apps are free and have great reviews in the Play Store. There are no ads in LibreTorrent, but there are some in Flud's free tier. If you're using an iPhone, stick to torrenting on your computer.
There are no torrenting apps in the official App Store, so you'll need to jailbreak your phone to torrent files. Configure your torrent client. Before you start downloading torrent files, you may want to check a few settings in your torrent client.
The process varies depending on the client you are using, but generally the options are very similar. You can find the Options or Preferences menu in the menu bar. Check the "Bandwidth" or "Speed" section and set an Upload rate limit. Open the "Downloads" section and choose where to save your torrented files. If Windows prompts you to allow firewall access for your torrent client, make sure to accept.
Browse or search for files. Some torrent clients have built-in search engines that let you specify what you're looking for.
In most cases, you'll use your regular web browser to browse for and download torrents. Just keep in mind that downloading copyrighted content is illegal and your ISP might issue you a warning if you choose to do so. After enough warnings, your ISP could disconnect your service. To protect yourself, make sure to connect to a VPN service before downloading torrents!
Torrent websites: Simply stated, these are websites that list torrents you can download. Some torrent websites only list legal torrents, but most focus on pirated copyrighted and redistributed illegally software, movies, and other files. You may have heard of The Pirate Bay, which is still one of the most popular places to download torrents. Torrent search engines: These are websites that let you search many popular torrent websites at once.
It's safer to stick to standard torrent sites and search engines, as they are more likely to have legitimate reviews, more seeders, and potentially better vetting. Evaluate the torrent before downloading. When you find a file you want to download, you'll see some information about the file. This includes a list of files included in the download, ratings, comments, and other details. You'll want to review this information before downloading the torrent. Check the number of Seeders S versus the number of Leechers L.
Seeders are users who have completed the file transfer and are now sharing the file with others. Leechers are users who are still downloading the file and are not yet sharing the whole thing. If there are a lot of Leechers and very few Seeders, it may take longer to download the file. Conversely, if there are a lot of Seeders and not as many Leechers, the file should download at your connection's maximum speed.
Check the comments section for the torrent file before downloading it. This can help you determine if the file is good quality important for video , and whether it is infected with viruses especially important when downloading programs. Download the torrent file. Click the Download link to save the. Most torrenting clients are configured to automatically open. If your queue is clear, the client will attempt to connect to other users and download the file.
Download the file. The speed at which your file downloads depends on a lot of different factors, including your connection speed, client settings, and torrent health availability of the file. You can monitor the progress of each download in the main window of the torrent client.
Some torrenting clients may allow you to start watching a video you're downloading before the download is complete. Seed the file when you're finished downloading. Torrenting is possible because people like you seed the files. Most private torrent communities expect you to maintain a minimum upload-to-download ratio, which means you'll be expected to keep your torrenting client open and the files seeding.
This usually doesn't apply to public torrent trackers, but it's still considered good torrent etiquette to upload at least as much as you download. Seeding happens automatically in nearly every torrenting client. You'll see "seeding" on the file in your client when you're seeding. If you don't plan on seeding the file, you can delete the.
