+The transmission platform allows you to control your [Transmission](http://www.transmissionbt.com/) client from within Home Assistant. The platform enables you switch to your 'Alternative Speed Limits' (aka 'Turtle mode') setting.
+
+To add Transmission to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
+
+```yaml
+# Example configuration.yaml entry
+switch:
+ platform: transmission
+ name: Transmission
+ host: 192.168.1.26
+ port: 9091
+ username: YOUR_USERNAME
+ password: YOUR_PASSWORD
+```
+
+[Finbarr Brady](https://github.com/fbradyirl) has contributed the transmission switch platform.
