I used to download 100GB files in 4h a couple years back. Now I can't find one fast torrent file when I am looking for something. I've been downloading a 1,4GB update for a game for 23h13min already and its at 54% 💀. My downloads average around 10KB/s maybe less. Do I just have to use a paid vpn today?

Edit: I think my setup is ok cause old torrents saved on my ssd still work great. Ill try to find better torrents and Ill try the vpn. Thanks to anyone who tried to help me.

So my internet speed is not great but I have the storage space to permanently seed what I download. This works great for the most part and BP systems keep everything working well for me. However, over time many torrents will produce an error, either at the end of a season when the complete season is uploaded or a more generic "Unregistered Torrent"/"Torrent is not registered with this tracker". I want to keep anything that could be useful but I'm not sure if I should bother creating a script torrents based on specific error strings? I'm using Transmission which tends to be lightweight and manages a large collection well but I don't know if the old torrents might cause issues in the future.

For the past three years, my college has blocked all forms of torrent traffic. To work around this, I used to download torrents using my personal mobile network.

Recently, I started using a LAN connection in my dorm because the campus WiFi signal was too weak due to distance. Today, while downloading a torrent through my phone’s hotspot, I had to attend an extra class. So I disconnected from the hotspot and reconnected to the college LAN. To my surprise, the download speed did not drop or stop. Instead, it increased significantly to speeds that only the college network can provide. This was unexpected since torrent traffic is normally restricted on this network. The torrent I was downloading was quite recent and had many seeders and peers.

I spent the rest of the class thinking about what had just happened and could not concentrate on the lecture. Once I got back to my room, I tried repeating the steps with an older torrent that had fewer seeders and peers. I followed the same method, but this time I only connected to two peers. Both were using the BitTorrent protocol and had the flag labeled DE, though I am not sure what that means. All the other peers that were connected earlier, before I switched networks, were no longer available.

Now I am curious to understand why only those two specific peers reconnected after switching to the LAN. Why did the others drop off? And is there any way to increase the number of peers I can connect to in this kind of setup?

Hello, I am trying to enable my mullvad vpn from my windows laptop in China. Previously I had no issues but now (independent of mullvad version) I cannot connect and it tells me "Network Traffic might be leaking, unable to block all network traffic. Try temporarily disabling third party antivirus or security software or send problem report". I dont have any antivirus running and it tells me "unable to send report" when I am trying to send problem report. Also I dont get email responses from Mullvad. I am using mullvad on my second windows laptop and on two android phones and do not have these issues.

Hi all, From a week ago I've noticed that if my phone is connected to the VPN, it will not connect to the internet. My home wifi in my phone settings says "connected without internet" and even when connected to cellular my apps say they can't reach the network.

I've been using MullvadVPN for a couple years now without any problems on any of my devices.

After some troubleshooting I've established it's only a problem on my phone(Samsung galaxy note10+) while my laptop(Linuxmint) and PC(windows10) are fine.

Even after the VPN was disconnected, my phone couldn't reach the internet so I assumed maybe my device was on a deny list for either my modem router or the ISP. I only use social media, study, and stream tv shows, nothing out of the ordinary.

I cleared the cached data for Mullvad, uninstalled, reset the phones network settings, and reinstalled Mullvad. BUT only after changing the phone wifi setting from randomised MAC to phone MAC would it reach the internet on my home wifi. So I'll leave it like that for now.

I'm open to any suggestions for why this happened or how to prevent it happening again. Also if you link a similar post with solutions that'd be appreciated as I didn't have any luck in my search. Thanks!

I am looking to buy an internal HDD, and will buy convertor to convert it into external and use it to store my lectures/ study materials/ pictures etc. These are my questions:

  1. Seagate/ WD or toshiba?
  2. Should I go for 2.5 inch (laptop onces) or the fatter desktop ones? The fatter onces need converters with adaptors whose price is almost 75% od the used HDD itself in my country. No issues though, need a reliable long running HDD.

if I go for 2.5inch laptop ones, I have the converter already at home.

So friends, which ones should I go for? Please help me out.
