New leeware sucks, Dont buy! Read...

Edit It seems my setup just sucks more than most peoples, But will keep the original post below. Also, Can anyone answer the question on page 3 (2nd post down i believe).


Well, As the title says, Dont buy leeware for seeding. Its completely crap.

The max download speed im hitting is 2.2MB/s which i can get with my home connection anyway.

The max upload im getting is around 20KB/s with alot of peers. (New TL torrents that have over 100 peers. We all know they should get better upload speeds)

Compared to my home connection, I shouldn't have bothered, I get the same download speed and the upload speed compared to leeware is alot better. Around 95KB/s compared to the 20KB or so from the box is a complete joke.

If you buy leeware and get the same problem from now, All i can say is "Told you so" ;)

I would imagine this isn't only my issue and alot are experiencing the same so im surprised this hasnt been posted sooner tbh.

Warning over, now the question

I'm considering where to go next, But i only want the upload speed. Im not too bothered about the download speed, That can max at 1MB/s for all i care, But i want the upload speed to be "great".

Im willing to put around £40 into another box, Which works out to be around 58 EUR or 80 USD.

I dont know many companies that dont pay much attention to what we do with the servers, So enlighten me please :lol:

Also, Post your experiences with the leeware TZ series for others to see also. I really hope im the only one who is getting speeds so slow, But i highly doubt it though.

Edit: Right now, The seedbox posts are all over the place, If someone has used alot of diffent seedboxes, Maybe they could post which is the best, Maybe work them into sections of price range or something?

Has anyone else had better speeds than that??

Sorry for hijacking the thread, but which seedbox should I get if I consider to get one? It should be easy to run (I'm a total noob) with somekind of websystem (web ui?), decent speed and not very expensive.

Try these:
KeyWeb's RootDS-Premium or
Hosting-IE's VPS Raptor 3+ although I'd tell you to get the KeyWeb one with Windows as Hosting-IE, from what I read in another thread, is just a Re-seller of KeyWeb boxes.
I personally havent used any servers, this is just information I've gathered with a bit of searching. Everyone should try it once in a while. :D

Thanks for the incredibly messy pic mars. I get the point..... :D

@Mars, Which of the TZ's are you using? Mines the TZ200 and my speeds are terrible at best :(

Tz 200
ur probably on the same line as me and im stealing ur bandwith :D

Btw in the last 12 hours im getting very bad speeds..
[100-200kb/s]
dunno why..

the speeds vary alot. yesterday I was uploading at a rate of around 2.5MB. today, I've only been uploading at 80-90KB max. the torrents all have plenty of leeches, so there shouldn't be any problem with getting a consistent upload speed. try rebooting your server from the control panel, and see if that makes a difference, I've found it helps me out every once in a while.

I think they're overselling the servers and their bandwidth. too bad lee isn't hosting the service himself anymore, I never had bad speeds on his servers. this tzulo.com company is not run well.
