Bandwidth Allocation Defaulted To Low, Can't Be Set To High

[-Myk-]

When I start a download Bandwidth Allocation is defaulted to low and can't be set to high. If I set it to high it just sets itself to normal.

 

How do I set the default to normal and how do I get it to take the change to high?

I am having the same problem and it began after upgrading to bitTorrent  Plus. Version BitTorrent Plus 7.8.1 Please help. Frustrated that this occurred after paying for better service. Thank you!

Hello? Is there a solution coming for this, I can't set my bandwidth allocation any higher than "normal" and it is causing me problems. Really not kosher this happened after a PAID upgrade. I see you can recreated the issue, but is there a solution or a fix coming? Maybe since I paid for a working product? Thanks.

For what it's worth, setting bandwidth allocation to high doesn't really do anything. It only adjusts how much BW a torrent would get relative to another if you have a) a download limit set and  multiple torrents competing for bandwidth.
