Transmission bittorrent client runs natively on multiple operating systems. Why not on GCONNECT ?
1 - Install Transmission:
# ipkg list | grep transmission
transmission - 2.82-1 - Lightweight BitTorrent client and daemon, with web interface bundled.
transmissiond - 1.42-1 - lightweight BitTorrent daemon with CGI WWW interface
I installed the package called transmission, there's another called transmissiond. pay attention on that!
# ipkg install transmission
2 - Set up Transmission:
That's the original settings.json:

3 - Changing the password of WEB GUI:
Do these things in the exact order:
- Shutdown Transmission
- Write the rpc-password in the settings.json file, in double-quotes.
- Save that file
- Start Transmission
- Login to the page, it's at port 9091 (In my environment http://gconnect.local:9091/transmission/web/)
- Type in your password.
4 - Starting Transmission:
#/opt/bin/transmission-daemon -g /home/admin/.config/transmission-daemon/
OBS: /home/admin/.config/transmission-daemon/ is the place where I save the settings.json
