@calvin
Is your metrofon 2mbps uplink?

I'm not discriminating against non Unifi users or anything, I just feel the purpose of having a Unifi DC++ is best served by limiting it to Unifi users at the moment. As a Streamyx user, you have the ability to download from any source be it direct download (RS, MU, HF), torrents, MIRC or whatever without hitting a bandwidth limit.
The reason I started the hub is because Unifi users on the other hand do/will eventually have a bandwidth limit. Now apparently, they're saying local traffic will not be counted. So I've started this place for Unifi users to gather, share files and discuss Unifi issues while only consuming local bandwidth (within the Unifi network alone).
If I were to allow non-Unifi users in, to you.. it would just be another place to download because you have an unmetered contract with Streamyx whereas we have a 60/90/120GB monthly cap which will be measured on a daily basis. Right now, we're enjoying minimum speeds of 500KB/s (5mbps Unifi users) up to 2.0MB/s (20mbps users) on the DC++ hub per thread. Streamyx users cannot match this speed because of your asymmetric lines.. there's a huge difference when you're able to download at those rates vs 30-40KB/s ._.
In the end, TM may even choose to measure local Unifi traffic. At least if that happens, we can say 'hey! we're paying a ****load for this line and you're limiting us at some pretty ridiculous rates.. at least let us have unmetered local connectivity' or something like that. They don't really have a reason to cap local traffic nor can they throw the excuse that by sharing large files locally we can somehow slow down browsing to Youtube or other international websites.
And of course.. the network will still be fully functional in the event a shark rips TMs undersea fiber optic cables in two (which seems to happen with Streamyx every single month).
well said!! Welcome to the hub, what distro are you on?
