VPN Setup for Fast & Safe d/loading via uTorrent

Hi Y’all,

I am struggling to get my head around how to setup up my VPN & uTorrent, so I can download at max speeds and safeguard my online identity.  

Tech / Software,

_Macbook Air w/ OS X Yosemite

_uTorrent v1.8.6 (current)

_Netgear N600 Dual Band Modem Router

_Running PIA VPN Client Interface v4.6 (current)

  Region: Auto, Connection Type: tcp, Remote Port: 443

When uTorrent & PIA VPN Client Interface are running simultaneously my download speed drops from 1MB+ p/s to 200-230kb p/s. What could be causing the speed to drop? What settings and on what device do I need to change?

AND

What is the best way to setup uTorrent’s and/or PIA VPN Client Interface settings to ensure online privacy while torrenting?

a) Port Forwarding via PIA VPN Client Interface

In PIA VPN Interface, Tick Port Forwarding box, change region to Canada and enter Port number (found upon hovering mouse over PIA VPN menu car icon) into uTorrent

b) Setup a proxy, similiar to this post,

Apart from what you have already mentioned, you also want to make sure that uTP and connection rate limiting are also turned off as they will underestimate the VPN capacity and settle on much lower speeds than possible.

Other than that, it seems you have everything set up correctly. You only need port forwarding and uTP disabled for optimal torrent performance.  I don't recommend using the proxy with it, as it will likely increase the network path needed and will also prevent you from using port forwarding properly.
