Recommended Seedbox

munkynstar Moderator on May 27th, 2012 / post 47800
Guys after a "few" issues with my internet connection these past few days, I have decided to look at acquiring a Seedbox.. I have a few links from Supertorrents that offer Seedboxes, however I would like one that works reasonably well with TM as I know there have been some issues with the TM tracker.. any recommendations are greatly appreciated  :-D

I am using seedwave, its a private seedbox sharing community, some (not much) linux is needed to setup your slot.

this is an article about it. and here is the link to the website.

To join you have to go through an interview process, it usually takes an hour or less, :P.

the seedbox's are worth them tho.

I tried once getting directly from server.lu. cost was a little to high for me, so i dropped the server after 2 months.

I heard https://whatbox.ca/ is a good site as well, but i am not sure, i never tried it.

there is https://www.xirvik.com/ moocowdan used them before, but he left. so prolly dont go there  :unsure:


Personally i used 2 providers, one called sceneserver (it went down tho) and the server from server.lu directly. and then i found seedwave.

been using seedwave for over a year now

Hey Munkyn and Moh

I think i am pretty much then only other one using a seedbox, of course lie Moh i encourage other users to share their thoughts and experiences.

Xirvik worked very well for me, the only reason i left was that they hiked there prices, some 75% price increase. I can nearly get a basic dedicated for the money they wanted. That become too much for me as all i wanted to do was take the strain of my home connection.

I am with a reseller on a .lu server, had some hiccups to start with two HDD failures :-( but for the last three months it has been plane sailing. I see only one problem with the setup that i have now and that is when you fill the HDD (100%) the setup (proxy, gui) shuts down.

In the future i would like to try a linux based box as per what moh is using, the concept of the setup there i like,  but time doesn't allow me to sit down, learn and play at the moment. So i will stay with what i know for now.

I am uploading around 1 TB per month on the TM Tracker and it frees my connection up nicely to record and watch tv.

MB, what do you spend per month to have your seedbox?
