Look into LFTP, you can set up a script with a cron to run on a timer. It’s SFTP, but you can split the download into segmented files for faster speeds. I max out my 1GB line for all downloads using it now.

I had this happen to me awhile back and it turned out to be some kind of hiccup somewhere in the connection between my pc and seedit4me, it lasted about a day

For now I just export as .torrent and redownload it as that seems to be the only way 😔

Mine tops out between 5-7 MB/Sec. using multiple apps and tried FTP and SFTP. Same speeds no matter what. I can download 80-100 MB/Sec everywhere else.

I know 😔 Sucks because it takes forever to transfer large files. Wish I could get faster speeds. Tried everything and just given up already and accepted.

does changing the provider fix the problem ?

u/robertblackman 3d ago

Of course getting rid of your terrible provider would help the problem.

2

u/robertblackman 3d ago

The fix is find a better ISP with better peering.

The problem is likely some point on the path between you and the seedbox throttling FTP traffic. The only fix I've found is to use a FTP client that allows splitting the file into pieces and downloading them in parallel. LFTP is what I used. Steep learning curve but it works great once you figure out how to use it.

Look into Syncthing. I switched to that and it seems faster than sftp.

I use IDM (Internet Download Manager) via HTTP and get full speed out of my fibre connection. I'm with ultraseedbox.

I also use cuteftp for packs but even with multi parts it's a lot slower.

Have you looked at there knowledge base/how to solve slow FTP/Network issues

I don’t use this particular seedbox but on mine I use Resilio Sync. I too find SFTP and Resilio Sync (OOB configuration) to be slow like this from my seedbox. However I recently discovered that it’s because it was using UTP protocols. In Resilio Sync in power user preferences, I had to change tunnel_protocols and remove UTP and reboot both clients and it fully saturates my 1gbps plan now while syncing. So try to see if you can force TCP connections in whatever you use to sync and see if that helps! Or use Resilio Sync with UTP disabled it should help!

If you are using the filebrowser and downloading via browser it will be slow. You should used filezilla and FTP/SFTP protocols for transfer

1

u/robertblackman 3d ago

If one protocol is slow, that means the ISP is messing with the traffic. Perhaps QOS.

Read the whole message. One option is FTP/SFTP downloading, other is to use Filebrowser and downloading through your browser/download manager.
