Bandaid for sandvining?
Posted: Wed Nov 21, 2007 2:38 am
After obviously getting sandvine implemented by comcast in my area I went from enormous trouble seeding with Azureus to not at all. Even implementing their strongest (level 5) encryption techniques and using the latest beta I was unable to seed at all. I even tried the wipfw thing.
I switched to Deluge and have been able to seed, but very intermittently.
I did just read of someone hitting "update tracker" and having their seed resume. I tried this and sure enough, you still get the up/down action as it speeds up and drops off in a span of about 20 seconds, but hitting "update tracker" will cause the seed to resume.
Are there any major cons to automating an "update tracker" command, though obviously not ideal, until something better comes along?
