    do i use my seedbox for leeching? if i download a file using the seedbox, do i transfer it back to my computer so it doesn't use up any of my bandwidth? is that how it works?? please correct me if i'm wrong

    hmm. I'm not really sure I understand you but, it doesn't matter where you seed from if only your passkey (the torrent from your account) has a ratio of at least 1:1 or the minimum seeding time (if the tracker uses that).

    Or do you mean that you upload a file on a tracker from your seedbox and then download the torrent via the tracker to your computer? That would be cheating on most trackers, especially if it's free leech Then you could boost your account to infinit ratio.

    Edit: Or you're talking about bandwidth... You shouldn't use your seedbox for leeching, it's best for seeding so leave the file on the box.

    and yes it takes up some of your 60 gb allotment on your home connection, it just doesn't take up double for downloading and uploading a torrent to 1:1
