Buying Seedbox- advice

[AmpeD]

I have no idea how a seedbox works or how to operate one, but am fairly tech savvy and have set up web pages etc before.
So I was looking at this package:

I heard good things about that host
or would you strongly recommend a different place?

So would that package make a good seedbox? im looking to be able to upload at at least 3 mb/s

How will it work when I buy it? Will I need to order linux and install torrentflux or could I get windows 2k3 and use uTorrent or something

Im so lost, any advice is appreciated

also how would it work if I shared with a friend on another ip?

this one is worth it...it should give you 8 mb/s just make sure you get windows....its very easy and i will be able to help you easily set it up with webui and ftp :D

GET WINDOWS AND RUN UTORRENT WEBUI...ill teach you everything ;)

[AmpeD]

thanks so much man,
last question:

[nikmash232]

just share it with a friend on the same ip...it doesn't matter if u have the same trackers

[AmpeD]

so could he access from his house and I access from my house no problem? we have mostly diff trackers. Im not sure if ur talkin about the server ip or my ip

oh yes u guys can access from anywhere with a firefox web browser through webui...all u get is a link something like http://XX.XXX.XXX.XX: Port#/gui/ (http://XX.XXX.XXX.XX:Port#/gui/)

and that would be your webui
and u have a user and pass in which u access it through

You might want to look into whether OVH allows foreigners to buy servers. From my understanding they do not allow any1 outside of France and parts of Canada.

indeed, ovh.com is restricted to some french speaking countries

there is ovh.uk and a couple divisions for other countries, but the bang for the buck value ain't the same at all

you can use two ips with the start100 server, there is a guide i made on how to do it on linux in the guide and tutorial section


now, go find yourself a french girlfriend to pay for you ;)

[AmpeD]

I think I may just go vectoral then

[KFlint]

not the same price range though, but vectoral is really good

[AmpeD]

actually vectoral is 60 bucks and that other is 65 for the one I was lookin at

[relleuM]

Vectoral is a good choice, I have one I havnet had any problems with. Speed is good as well.

[AmpeD]
