Only practical thing I can think of that everyone can do is to DL using the same public trackers.

I use a private tracker to get American TV show episodes, and I have noticed that my Utorrent client is clever enough to connect to as many local peers as possible to get data. Am connected to a lot more Malaysian BT clients than before the shaping started, and some are nice enough to allow good UL speeds that allow me to complete the DL in a reasonable time. Not as fast as before, but I can live with it...  blush.gif

In fact, the private BT trackers that I used previously are now slower for DL than the public trackers because most of the seeders are offshore. Very annoyed about this - had such a good ratio on so many sites.


e.g. Some.Torrent.s01e01 from the same private tracker is maxing out my DL speed (about 90kb/s ) and the data is almost all from Malaysian clients (about 40 of them) Yeah guys keep it up!!  rclxms.gif

Haha.. yeah.. I might be one of them that was connected to you. My peers list in utorrent was ALL Malaysia IP. And I was connected to 80 peers. ALL of them with MALAYSIAN flag. I pumped up the UL to help everyone get it fast when I was done. Now I'm helping to seed Heroes S01E01. smile.gif

It seems popular shows like Prison Break and Lost will have lots of local peers. NEW shows like Heroes will take some time until they become popular also and we will then see many local peers on it.

This is regarding SecureTunnel. How about those with two or three pcs at home? Will all three be able to use the SSH? Or just one? How does it work actually? Am interested in subscribing to the Gold package.

Signed up for 30 days at Relakks. Getting full speed on torrents.
Simple to use as well.
A++++

I've sign up as well. All I need to do is just setup the VPN in My Network Connection right? There's nothing else to do? Ports open at router or such.

Mine also disconnects few times in the 3 hours i've subscribed to it. However it's a small price to pay for getting fast torrent. I set mine to reconnect automatically within 10secs after disconnection.

Also if disconnect, tmnet ip takes over and torrent will just resume downloading from local peers. Once on Relakks, international ip jumps in to help smile.gif

For those using Relakss VPN or ST, does your torrent client state that your port is blocked?
*
Nope. Mine shows green all the way.

Relakks. However it is kind of unstable at night. Usually there are disconnections. However it's relatively ok in the day.

Relakks is kinda unstable especially at night. So don't sign up if you think it's a one solution to all your problems. It is not. All the services out there has its downside.

THe only solution is for TMnet to lift the throttling. Which I don't see happening. So we are screwed...

Anybody having problem with relakks right now? I can't seem to ping to their pptp server. Their l2tp server is fine but as many know we cannot go anywhere if we get connected to it.
