Simple question. Can the N+ and N2+ handle bit torrenting files?

I know of no software that does this, so the short answer is no.

 

The long answer depends on what you mean by 'handle bit torrenting files'  

Can it copy the files and leave them encrypted? yes.

Can it decrypt the files from a stream?  probably, if you write the code.

Can it coordinate multiple port connections to optimize bit torrent throughput? probably not.

Can it generate keys and encrypt outgoing files on the fly? Maybe (but see previous restriction), how is your STM32 Assembly language and ability to generate your own firmware (do you have access to an expensive toolchain, I have not seen anything about building the current firmware any other way)? The chip can do it, can you?

 

Bottom line; not something the device is likely to do well, if at all.
