our college WiFi does not block torrents but any connection has to be made through a proxy server. when I use my phone as a hot spot, all my torrents download fine. when I use the proxied WiFi however, 90% of the torrents are stuck at connecting to peers though some start after I force start. is there anything I can do to make it work?

Looks like you need to configure your BitTorrent client (μTorrent) to use the proxy.

- Open μTorrent's settings/preferences window from the options menu
- Switch to the Connection pane from the menu on the left
- Enter your Proxy details in the proxy server section
- Check both 'Use proxy for...' boxes, which will force all traffic through the proxy
- Click OK

In this blog, I’ll teach you 6 ways to bypass torrent blocking: 1: Use VPN Service. A Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection essentially cloaks a user’s ISP and helps the data to be transferred anonymously through a secure tunnel. By using a VPN connection, you can download torrent files without compromising on your privacy and security.
