I also use rtorrent. One thing that many rtorrent new users have issues 
with is rtorrent uses CTRL-S and CTRL-Q for some of its operations and 
these are typically reserved as control flow characters. You may need to 
disable XON/XOFF before using rtorrent. Use stty with the -ixon option 
to turn it off.
