ovh have crappy routing to some countries and their sla/nosla crap gives really bad speeds during "peak times"

True true.
Try opening 4 or 5 threads.

i think you right dude, now its between 50 and 10 kb.
conclusion dont get seedbox from ovh unless you are from france or somewhere near guys :)

I live in the USA and I can max out at ~350kb/s per connection, per file. so it's not too bad :D
And remember guys, OVH is cheap for a reason.

i took sometimes 8 kBs/s too but when i got it .It was really hard to connect to server to with remote desktop or web gui maybe this is a down time?
and look ftp server setting did some1 limit your download speed?

now the speed is ok 193kb
so what we understand from this
in themorning its was from 50 kb to 10 kb for 4 hours
in the afternoon 5kb to 0 kb for 5 hours
in the evening 200 to 100 kb now thats the speed - for couple of minutes
its back 0kb while i am writing the post :)) its ok standing still! :)
now back 200 kb :)
maybe they are blocking or something.i should go talk to the support immadietely i am sick of it
whats going on here, why its so unstable??????????? :)

Use a good multithreading ftp client like 3dftp. use the search function to find at least 3 more threads talking about this issue.

is this true or do people just not know what they're doing? i'm planning on leaving Leaseweb for ovh but i won't if it's this gay. i max out my 20mb connection with leaseweb. will ovh not do this?
Posted by: ericab
it will if you know what you are doing.
i max out my 32mbit cable connection with OVH, and im in the usa.
setup vsftpd on your box correctly; get a client like 3d-ftp, and youll be good to go.

I used to download at 1MB/s which was ok, but now i can't get speeds greater than 200KB/s (avg. speed 150KB/s) and as low as 30KB/s which pretty much sucks.
3d-ftp will do nothing if OVH's link to your country/ISP is lame.But since i'm on a shared box i'd give OVH the benefit of the doubt.This could be due to a lot of reasons.

Got a dedicated Kimi and the ftp seeds do indeed suck at 8k-20k a thread :(

this thread almost persuaded me not to buy an ovh dedi. i'm so glad i decided to pay it no attention. i purchased the kimsufi XL and i easily max my 20mbit connection. i also remote-upload via ftp to rapidshare at 10+ mb/s. couldn't be happier with ovh..

Glad you have a good experience. Just tried again and get the same slow speeds roughly 8-15 kbps per thread on a Kimi L and Kimi Xl via ftp download :frusty:

that sucks. are you using vsftpd? that's the ftp server i'm using. i've never tried the other ones but this one works great. the problem may be your ftp server.
