The client can concurrently download file parts from multiple sources for a single file. Multi-source download can speed up synchronization times where the latest version of a file is available from multiple sources.

Enabling or disabling multi-source downloads

It is possible to control the use of multi-source downloads separately for LAN and WAN connections. 

(info) Multi-source downloads are turned on by default for LAN and WAN. To enable/disable the feature:

  1. Enable the Advanced Mode.
  2. Click on Preferences in the main window.
  3. Click on Expert Settings.
  4. Configure the checkboxes next to Multi-source download as preferred.
