Torrent reduced to a (very) slow drip

#1 Post by Gordon Cooper »

Just a comment. My dictionary refers to as torrent as fast moving. My torrent system is currently uploading slowly to a potential antiX user in Sardinia.

Their bits per second upload speed here is usually in single digits. After several days of activity the total is just over 10%. Other users appear, upload,
and disappear with good speeds. This one must be saddled with a sensationally slow line. :confused:

Dial-up, perhaps?

Looks as if they have abandoned it. The overnight uptake was about 0.5%, but shortly after 8am(local) the connection disappeared and has not returned.

Hi Paul, generally the performance is good and I have very few problems since we changed over to Theo's servers. Occasionally, as happened with Pale Moon this week
we miss an MX upgrade because of Time differences but that is not a issue for me and the upgrade will be there the next day. Am helped too by all of this part of
town changing to glass fibre quite early in the NZ project. It is fast and reliable. The torrents just keep going and if the very occasional power failure does happen, I can run the gear from a solar charged backup supply.
