I’ve been struggling to get ratios over even 1.0, most are stuck in the low 0.10 - 0.20 range. I don’t seed off my gaming PC 24/7 because I don’t want a VPN on all the time, plus I turn it off at night.
So mainly wondering if anyone has tips on a good setup to keep the PC seeding overnight, I’m running linux mint currently. I also have a RaspPi but I understand they are not great for torrents?
Is there any good way to compartmentalize a VPN? I.e., use the VPN for qBitTorrent only, and use my regular network adapter for other stuff (games, browsers, whatever).
I’ve tried a seedbox in the past and they’re neat, but I’d rather avoid a subscription and just use my hardware. I’m using Private Internet Access VPN until my already paid for time is up in case that’s significant.
Cool I will look into it, I always thought I was stuck not port forwarding due to the campus situation, and therefore stuck with bad upload speeds. In fact that was a reason I was going to use Mullvad in the future despite them not having port forwarding, but I’ll have to consider some other suggestions if I can get the port forwards working.
