A Simple Guide to Seedboxes

It can sometimes be hard to maintain your ratio in certain private trackers, and it can especially be frustrating for people with lower speed connections. Sometimes there are huge files that you'd really like to download, but you don't think you can upload them and keep your ratio balanced at the same time. Well, if that's the case, this is your lucky day, because there is a solution to this problem, and it's known simply as a "SeedBox".

A seedbox is a computer located in a country that deals with high speed connections like Sweden, for example. This computer can be remotely accessed by a user, and the user can use it to seed torrents without even using his own computer. This can all be done from the safety of your home.

"Well, what are you waiting for... give me the LINK!". I'm sorry to tell you this, but seedboxes cost money, mainly monthly payments, and they're not that cheap either. But it still is worth it if you're someone who, is registered to multiple private trackers, has a crappy connection and wants to have a higher ratio than his friends at school.

Anyways, here's how you can get your own seedbox, if you're willing to pay some money.

1. Visit any one of the sites below. These are the best seedboxes I know of. Make sure you purchase a Windows-based server, because it will make life much easier. (The following are ordered according to rating)

LeaseWeb

SoftLayer

LayeredTech

Vectoral

Shinjiru

2. After you purchase a seedbox, the host will provide you with the following:

- The Server's IP Address (ex: 194.58.76.125)

- The Server Username (used to access your server)

- The Server password (used to access your server)

3. Once you have the information stated above, download the RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol).

4. After the installation process is complete, go to Start>All Programs>Accessories. You should have an option called Remote Desktop Connection. Click on it.



5. Once the RDC is open, enter the IP address your host provided you with.



6. After you connect to the server, you will be prompted to enter the username and password that were given to you.

7. If you've done everything correctly, you should have be able to see the desktop of your purchased server.

To start downloading torrents, just download uTorrent and install it to your newly purchased server. I hope this tutorial helped you in some way, and don't forget to always visit for more great tutorials and guides on P2P Heaven!
