Do You Have Speed Problems?
If so, please do not ask for assistance here, go to the Official qBittorrent support forum and provide the answers to the following:
Connection Speed
What your ISP has sold you is irrelevant, to calculate a starting place for settings requires a real time check of bandwidth/speed capability.
Instructions
Turn off any and all BitTorrent clients that are running, open Speedtest.net in a browser, run the test(s), then provide a screen shot of the results in your post.
Version and Operating System
This is essential. Also before asking, please ensure that you are using the latest release for your OS. See the news page first, as we do not support older versions of qBittorrent.
