How do i get more seeds for my torrent?

Question

There are over 4000 available seeds for my Download but im only getting 30, how can i get it so im downloading from the others? thanks.

(utorrent app)

Answer 1

That means there are only 30 people whose computers are turned on and who are currently uploading the torrent.

Usually as time goes by while you are downloading the torrent the torrent app will locate more seeds. If a seed is subtracted from the list it's because the person uploading it stopped doing so.

Answer 2

There is a lot of misunderstanding on connecting to a number of seeds or peers.  Connecting to more does not mean more speed.  A lot of memory and bandwidth is used in connecting to seeds and peers and you do not download from all of them anyways.  30 should be enough to max out speed.

But you can check out this guide on setting uTorrent up for best download speed.  It does deal with limits on connections and other options among other things:
