A question about seedboxes
Using something like torrentflux, you can use a seedbox by installing it onto a webhost, right?
So say you sign up for a free one? (110mb.com, etc)
There are a lot of free ones with a lot of bandwith, but will the speeds be really slow?
Sorry if it's awkwardly phrased. I don't know how else to say this.
Re: A question about seedboxes
Speeds will be fast but its against the host's TOS (terms of service) and once they find out (they will eventually), you will be terminated.
Re: A question about seedboxes
When they detect a fast traffic from ur accout u will get terminated, quickly.
Re: A question about seedboxes
It's easier to get an actual seedbox. That'll just make your life a little bit easier.
Re: A question about seedboxes
Don't rent a web host, rent directly a seedbox. :lol:

slow or fast depends on the bandwidth itself and the traffic, but it'll surely against their term of service, just rent a dedicated and if that's too much for your budget, there are lots of cheap vps around like hivebox, tzulo, etc
Re: A question about seedboxes
There are web hosts that allow this kind of stuff.
And this is free :) I'd rather do this than pay for a seedbox.
What's bothering me right now is the fact that I can't set up torrentflux. Anyone want to do it for me? :)
Re: A question about seedboxes
I would go with the a seedbox to avoid any further hassles or possible termination. Plus web hosts are alot slower. Hope some can help you though.
Re: A question about seedboxes
most of the webhosts time out the connections and limit the open ports. Also if they find out, they may send you a big letter, and terminate your services.
Re: A question about seedboxes
Hm..
Say I'm able to get web hosting with 75 gigabyte traffic a month that normally costs money but I get it for free (because of a deal I made.. :p) and that the web "hostee" would allow torrents / warez. Because he does
