Why do people use seedbox resellers? Wanted custom seedbox but they are closed:(

I tried rps from ovh and they are pretty unreliable for torrenting (inparticular iSCSI). No clue if its me but my rtorrent kept crashing the rps every single time i tried to download for some odd reason. It would start downloading, after about 20 secs the rps became completely unresponsive and only could get it back by doing a hard reset. I tried different linux distributions and rtorrent/libtorrent versions, same thing kept happening.

same as m8 with rtorrent so its not just you. so i would deffo not choose the RPS for seeding torrents

nice, thanks for letting me know it wasnt me then.

Yea I tried them as well, and running torrents larger than about 350MB TV shows was quite bad. I got only about 600KB/s when running just a single 700MB movie, far less than the 3-5MB/s I got with the TV show. Anyway, with the new setup no-one else is going to try it LOL.

The guy that runs customseedbox has said that he won't take on any more customers right not and is filling open slots as they become available because people don't renew. If you want to try and get a byte sized slot follow their twitter feed: http://twitter.com/bytesizedboxes as it looks like they announce on there when they open up for new customers.

Yea that's the case, I can only fill when people don't renew. I have slowly been getting new servers when there has been a big enough queue, but due to setup costs it isn't really worth it because it takes 2 months to break even
