Spectra and seedbox

[pudu123]

Hi,

I am having streaming issues with media stored in my seedbox. It’s a 100 mbit seedbox which means it can provide twice the speed of my current 50mbps Internet plan.

I am having difficulty streaming even a 3-4 GB HD video stored in the seedbox.

I am in Noida.

is this a ISP peering issue or something else?

Which seedbox provider?

Seedbox.io

Try sftping a file from the box and see what speeds you get?

@JB700

it will take me more than an hour to download a 200mb file using sftp.

If it takes that long to download a 200MB file on a 50Mbit then there is definitely some peering issue. You should try streaming on a VPN see if that improves it.

Ok. 1 hour was maybe incorrect. It takes about 15 minutes to download a 200 mb file which is still ridiculous for 50mbps connection.

Then i tried VPN.

It improved sftp speeds by 10%.

I used 2 different VPN services on my android phone to test it out.

Then i used Google drive to download a file from. A 50mb file took 20 seconds which is still slow for a 50mbps connection but it's better than the seedbox download speeds

Can you do a traceroute to your seedbox IP? Hide the last hop ofc

They have a reroute option. Not sure if its available on your slot though

This is due to the peering issue. Most ISPs gives their advertised speed only in India. When we connect to servers they reduce the speeds to save cost of bandwidth. You can rclone the files from seedbox to Gdrive then download the file from Gdrive this way you will get full speed

i have a couple of TBs of data. I’m assuming that rclone will consume my bandwidth or can it be done over the cloud? There is a service called multcloud which does that but I’m not sure if it’s applicable here For seedbox rclone.
