I believe this topic isn't against the forum rules, if it is i am sorry, just delete/close this topic.

Well i was looking at my Utorrent and what not and decided to look at the Peers i was uploading to and i saw this, it's the first time i have seen anything like it, unless i am really a n00b at torrents, but i don't think i am.

All IP addresses really close within range, all using the same Torrent App, almost identical Flags and they have all been on 1.1% percent for a couple of days now.

I don't know what it is, so i though you guys might tell me what it is? Thanks

Oh and im downloading the new Futurama Movie if that has anything to do with it.

EDIT: The list goes on for longer, i just cant get it all into the photo.

[hypothesis] It might be that there's only one seeder, but on a network with dynamic IP addressing. Every time (s)he logs on, there's a different IP address from within a certain address range, so the torrent protocol identifies it as a different seeder. That's why the download is so slow, too.

Try finding another torrent.

Maybe a clustered bittorrent client?
someone runs multiple PCs on a network, and uses 1 client application on each computer...
They're all downloading the same file, but each client downloads a different part of the file.
The downloads are then much faster because each PC is considered as a different client... although it's the same person.
Get the idea? That's what I think it is (just a theory!)

If this is a public torrent I wouldn't be surprised if these belong to a p2p monitoring company. It's a bit too obvious, though...

They all belong to this company, based in California (hint: that's where Hollywood is located...):

    @_Ruri_, I like laptops in small formfactors, still got an Asus and Toshiba laptop that I use for testing stuff out.

    Don't use laptops too much tbh, especially small laptops, iPads completely obliterated them in everything tbh

    The last laptop I ever used was a Lenovo (not a ThinkPad), storage got full quite quickly because it was limited to 32GB lol.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It ran Windows 10 which was before I moved to Linux.

  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Mine too was a Lenovo, it was 512gb though so memory was ok
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    It still runs Win10 but I'm planning to use it as a media server.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I never use Win10 or Win11 because of the risks associated, I'm a lot more fond of the customization and ease of use when using Linux.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    I'm on Win11 IoT Enterprise LTSC, it gets security updates for 10 years and you can disable a lot of telemetry and other stuff with groups policies
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Don't use Linux because a lot of games I play aren't fully supported on Linux and making them run it's kind of a pain
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I can remember what PC's I've used over the years. (2011-2013) - Medion PC with Windows 7, (2014-2017) - HP Compaq DC7100 with Windows XP Pro SP3, (2017-2021) - Lenovo IdeaPad 120S-11IAP.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @_Ruri_, Only play games on old consoles that I have or via emulation. Not too much of a new games fanboy.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    I used the netbook (HP Mini something) from like 2009 to 2010, a Sony Vaio from 2010 to like 2015 then got an Asus laptop with 4gb ram and 1tb memory which I kept until 2020 when I upgraded to the Lenovo which I used until October 2023 when I built my first PC.

  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @SylverReZ, Hm yeah I understand, Linux can work if you don't play new games, I still do though so it's not super practical for me. I have a spare SSD though, I could experiment with stuff in the future
