guys i was just wondering, if using BTguard can get me banned in some tracker ?

i will also welcome any other way of setting VPN for torrent client.
Tried tor (used for public tracker, testing purposes only) but its cuts away my speed drastically.

If you're using it to browse the site itself, yes.

If you're just using it for your client, it'll depend on the site in question, but in most cases this should be fine.

Just make sure the service doesn't make you unconnectable. You can also play a bit with the routing tables if not leaking your real IP is of critical importance. Other than that, there isn't much to it besides connecting to the VPN and then using your connection as usual, as far as any network program is concerned.

Do NOT use Tor for P2P. Seriously. Don't.

If you're using their VPN, most of the time trackers are OK with that, but I'd ask their staff first.

What he said. Leave the TOR network alone, please.

Yes, critical. I know for a fact that BitMeTV dosent allow any VPS, proxies, etc.

Why not just use a seedbox and a decent firewall or router

What did you originally want to use a VPN for?

All this effort, Seedobxes, VPN's, etc... is it really worthy? For as little as 8$ per month you have unlimited access to the usenet, which is way faster than any tracker, absolutely safe and has HUGE contents.

I can no longer find any logic in that game.

i'm curios about the reasons why tor shouldn't be assosiated with bit-torrent (or vice-versa?), i'm not into privacy networks so just wanna know, for future maybe =)

CleverMan: there are two big reasons. Firstly, Tor is meant to provide uncensored Internet access on countries and/or places which restrict it. Abusing the network by downloading through it means those people get sluggish speeds when using it for what it's actually meant for.

Secondly, you put the exit nodes at risk by making them transfer P2P traffic in your behalf. The implications are similar to using your neighbor's Wi-Fi to download torrents.

yesh, but to be honest, i failed every time, i went to understand how the usenet stuffs works. what i found is websites loaded of advertisement, 100 clickable shits to live nude webcams.
im not looking forward to put up any money in vpn at this time. my speed is decent & seedboxex are useless for me.

You must have gone to the wrong places. There's a very nice thread by Rart in the Newsgroups section that explains the basics. :)
