I was feeling real groovy about my fresh new ultra.cc VPS, but it's slow as fuck! sub 50 kbps upload. I'll never untank my ratio at this rate!
Is this normal? Any suggestions for another provider? At this rate I wonder if I'd be better off just switching from mullvad to a VPN that supports port forwarding. Any thoughts on privateVPN?
Edit: so the FTP speed is much, much faster than I'm getting on my torrent client. Either i don't have something configured right, or i need to be more strategic about what i seed. If anyone can help me trouble shoot, id greatly appreciate it
I am using Ultra.cc, and do not have issues with seeding
Been using it for close to 10 years. Never had a single serious issue with it. Apps break now and then. A simple reboot of the server or the app fixes it every single time.
A lot of public torrents download and seed at insane speeds. Like "must be in the same building or even the same disk" speeds.
I have been using ultra for over a year now and dont have the issue you are talking about. How many seeds/peers do the torrents have? Might just be that there arent a lot of people dling what you are seeding
that was exactly the problem. I found a more desired torrent and now my ratio is safe 8-)
Ive used Ultra cc for maybe 7-8 months straight now and have a ratio of 40on my private tracker. 7+tb upload with the ultra service alone. Got a little over 100 seeding 24/7I was strategic in the beginning, only going for popular freeleech stuff. Packs are very popular. Ive seeded a ton of a cartoon pack I got for nostalgia, and it wasnt even a fresh upload when i grabbed it.
Edit, also im not using a vpn, for anything. Ultra cc's service can be used as a vpn tunnel. But since my host is in the Netherlands racks it doesn't need a vpn for public trackers, and i dont need a vpn to stream from the seedbox.
yea, once i figured out the freeleech thing, i was off to the races. my ratio has nearly 10x'd what it was since I made this post
Only one I ever tried is whatbox.ca . Been using them for 7+ years. They are great.
