However, that is not going to multiply your download and upload speeds and can only hurt your overall speeds and waste bandwidth.

First of all your overall speeds are limited by the capacity of your internet connection. You can not get more speed than your connection has.

Secondly, the higher your upload rate on a torrent the more download you will get back from other peers on the torrent. Using multiple instances of uTorrent would split that upload up and result in lower overall speeds.

Also, each instance of uTorrent would be using bandwidth in maintaining connections with trackers and seeds/peers.

The best speeds in uTorrent come from a proper set up of uTorrent and choosing good torrents (high seed to peer ratio).

These are the basic principles of optimizing a bittorrent client, like µTorrent, for speed:

  • Choose a proper port to avoid ISP blocks and conflicts with other programs
  • Forward that port through any software firewall and router to allow incoming connections
  • Adjust internal settings based upon upload capacity of the internet connection to allow room for outgoing communications and to distribute upload efficiently.

Following those steps and choosing healthy torrents will get you the best download speed.

How internet download manager increases the downloading speed?

Usually, if you're downloading a file, the download server is limiting the download speed, and not your internet connection (though this might be different if your connection is slow) The download manager splits the file into multiple segments, and downloads the segments from different servers, so that every segment has it's own download speed for a total download speed that is far higher.
