Hi there, I’m still a bit new to downloading .iso’s, but think i’ve got the gist of it. I’ve been following the Trash guides along the way. However one thing that I don’t understand is why Im getting such varied download speeds for the .iso’s im downloading. Some of them will download at KiB speed others will be downloading at mbs speed. As far as I know, I can not download any faster than whatever the speed its being uploaded, correct?
Is there anything I can do to improve these speeds? I have 1000mbs/50mbps from ISP. I’ve also setup qbitorrent to sit behind gluetun+openvpn connection from ProtonVPN. Other than that there are some config changes which have been done according to TrashGuides recommendations.
Thanks for any suggestions! 🏴☠️
Public trackers notoriously over-report active seeders. Raise your required number in Prowlarr much higher until you get on private trackers.
I set the minimum to 5 seeders, and I’m on 3 private trackers and raised their priority. Prowlarr doesn’t seem to care
