Is Transmission slower than µTorrent ?

I've tested the SAME torrent on Transmission (on my nas) and µTorrent on my pc:
the torrent on my nas would NOT connect to any peer or seed instead µTorrent was connected to 3 peers and was (slowly) downloading.

Obviously the ports are correctly forwarded and I enabled all the necessary options to find more peers in transmission client.

I'm using Transmission 2.42 and latest µTorrent as well.


Any Idea ?

thanks

  • Some torrent sites only allow mainstream torrent clients like utorrent with their trackers etc, transmission or the normal bittorrent client won't work - bitsoup is an example.
  • I've been using transmission for a while now and it's been working great for me. There are also add-ons available for µTorrent and rTorrent. I don't know if they are for the Duo though.
