To keep the focus off your home network, consider instead running your torrent programs on a cheap VM in a cheap VPS provider, then sftp down the files you wish to keep and destroy the VM. You can probably automate this. VPS providers typically have much faster symmetric network connectivity anyway.

- LinuxBender 7y agoAbsolutely. I am suggesting to do this for all file sharing, so that even for legal bittorrent file sharing, the ISP doesn't even look at you. This also reduces the impact on your bandwidth quota, if you have one. Comcast is 1TB/mo.
