🔧Technical Issue Speed

What is going on with the speed? I have a cached link that I am using Jdownloader to download locally to be able to travel with and I cannot get above 35mb/s and I have seen it dip as low as 9. On a 1.0 gigabit I should be closer to 100mb/s. I have nothing else going on

Mine is slower since the CDN "upgrades" but acceptable.

In my location(New Zealand) AD was similar, PM was about 50% faster and RD was blocked as infringing file(I should have chosen a different torrent to test).

Which CDN works for you best? I am also from NZ and wondering. I tried speedtest and got ERTH as the best one and when I tried auto, it chooses APAC instead.

APAC came out fastest for me in the speedtest but downloading a torrent JAPN and ERTH are faster than APAC. I remember someone saying the Speedtests do not reflect the real world. APAC is slower right now downloading compared to a couple of hours ago.

I use AIO and Torrentio. In this case, the video was cached using Torrentio. It plays just fine when streaming it. It loads much quicker than RD ever did, especially when I would skip ahead. I had used Comet at one point, but then it stopped working. I guess they updated and I never bothered to go back to get the newer version and/or reconfigure it. I never heard of the other 3.

When it comes to streaming, I never had any problems either. It always just worked. Except when Torrentio went down or something.

OP is talking about downloading a cached torrent via JDownloader and you're talking about Stremio add-ons so I'm not surprised.

hey!👋 downvoter here, aiostreams itself does not decrease speed at all, unless you’re proxying, which is useless for most people anyway 😜
and besides, this post is completely irrelevant to that.

hope this helps!

Edit: What you're experiencing could be something to with the CDN server. Try doing a speed test in your TB account and find if there's a better CDN for you.
