Which is the best torrent client for linux?

Azureus or KTorrent

Azureus needs JRE (and it takes up some extra resources). So go for KTorrent.

Or you could always use Wine + µTorrent. µTorrent themselves support running it on Wine.

wine utorrent.exe

Even i use µtorrent thru wine.. Its much better compared to ktorrent!!

 

[Quiz_Master]

µtorrent + wine....ofcourse...

µtorrent is perfect and easiest to configure. No frill shrill.

Azureus too is goood.

port forwarding?in bridge mode,jus open a random port(like 50471) via iptables frontend's like lokkit,firestarter or for kde-guarddog etc),enter openport no. into ur torrent client tcp port option.that's it!.
afair,port forwarding is have to do with router used as pppoe dialer.then u have to enable virtual server and few other configurations too in router.
*portforward.com helps
BTW,I get decent speed in deluge aswellas azureus in bridge mode with dataone h500.torrents-nighttime d/l speed reaches 207KB/s(till last may it was 217KB/s ) while i upload at 20KB/S
