Hey all,
I've finally switched to a seedbox (rapidseedbox). So far I am quite disapointed in the download/upload speed. Download isn't really an issue, but upload certainly is. Most times its between 0.1 to 50 k/s . Sometimes i'll get a peak at 2-3 m/s.
In about 10 days i uploaded 120gb. Which is about 2-3 times what I did from home, previously, in a single day. Its not that much of a problem on iptorrents. But, for the files I need that are not on freeleech, its a tiny buffer that I'm struggling to build.
I tried playing with the settings (deluge), to no avail. When I contacted them, they mentioned the issue was the lack of leechers on the torrents I had, which is bs if you ask me. Some of the torrents i grabbed were a few seconds old, and had a large leecher pool.
Also, I did way better on my personnal setup, with similar usage of torrents.
Any of you have success story with rapidseedbox? Or tweaks that could help? I'm considering abandonning ship and moving to ultracc. Only issue I have with that, is that I'm unsure if I can have two active seedboxes on iptorrents at the same time. Although they do mention allowing 3 ip addresses (just not just if its one at a time, or up to 3 connected).
Thanks,
Bob
