Softpedia Editor's Review for uTorrent Ultra Accelerator
|
An add-on for uTorrent client
Written by Bogdan Popa on January 12th, 2012
uTorrent Ultra Accelerator is a Windows tool that's designed to boost the speed of the downloads you make with uTorrent, and thus help you get the most of your high-speed Internet connection.
While BitTorrent remains one of the fastest file sharing protocols, users need a properly configured network configuration to make sure they're downloading files at the highest possible speed.
That's exactly the purpose of uTorrent Ultra Accelerator, a simple software solution that tries to optimize network settings and thus help uTorrent deliver greater download speeds.
With a very clean and straight-forward interface, uTorrent Ultra Accelerator targets beginners and more experienced users alike, even if rookies may have a hard time trying to figure out the way the program works.
There are dedicated buttons to “Start” and “Stop” acceleration, but also a separate field to let you choose the network interface that's being used by uTorrent.
Furthermore, the main window of the application shows a bunch of statistics, including sent and received bytes, connection time and the overall time since acceleration has been enabled.
Of course, uTorrent Ultra Accelerator needs just a minimum amount of hardware resources and works on all Windows versions without hampering computer performance at all.
The application however comes with absolutely no help file which is indeed a problem, not only because we can't find how exactly it attempts to boost download speed, but also because beginners may need assistance while using the app.
Overall however, uTorrent Ultra Accelerator is an interesting tool, although some people claim it's more the placebo effect rather than a significant speed boost provided by this app.
