salad had crashed just before I left home

#

so lucky I checked my earnings graph before leaving

subtle condor
#

I do that while in school lul

pulsar arrow
#

ok it seems like sgs client keeps going away after some time

#

buggy ahh app

subtle condor
#

Do you have container enabled as well?

gleaming shell
#

yeah imagine

#

last time i got a job was back when it was still beta

Bandwidth Sharing is still in beta

gleaming shell
#

oh it is?

tulip jolt
#

this thread in a nutshell
-when is it coming to india
-i killed my hdd complaining about how it hasnt worked for them in 2 months
-how fix (not looking at pins)
-what is bandwidth sharing? (again not looking at the pins)

tulip jolt

copium

#

although that's not affected earnings before

subtle condor
#

Container might be causing it to not work, I'll explain in a bit what happened to me when I used container with bandwidth

thorn lantern
subtle condor
#

For me what happens is after Vmmem stops using resources but stays running (so basically xmrig stops in the vm) sgs-client also stops and I only get the earnings from container instead

#

This happens consistently for me, so I never use both bandwidth and container at the same time. Not sure if anybody else has experienced that before...

pulsar arrow
#

Alright so I'll disable container on the bandwidth machine I guess

Yeah, Glasswire sponsors Linus often because they don't actually make that much money. They are an extremely privacy friendly company and only make money off sponsors and people buying their subscription.

I have a desktop and a laptop, both with seperate internet connections, Salad only runs one sgs-client (bandwidth) on one machine at a time. Desktop connected to BT broadband 10 up 40 down, and has worked fine in the past. Laptop connected to backup vodafone mobile broadband 40 down 20 up and was working fine this afternoon until desktop fired up. Laptop got shutdown to clean lint from fan and bandwidth jumped to pc and won't resume on laptop. I have not managed to run both bandwidth at the same time, but both connections have run it for days in the past fine. Any tips? Thanks all

gleaming wraith
#

oh wait

#

that's odd

#

maybe just toggle cpu whilst running bandwidth sharing

#

that sometimes gets sgs client to start

stiff wedge
gleaming wraith
#

also what's puzzling is why's the backup mobile broadband got a higher bandwidth than the main one lol

stiff wedge
gleaming wraith
stiff wedge
#

Or maybe you've used all of the data for the vodafone one

jaunty saddle
#

Completely separate routers and IP's. I'd prefer to run bandwidth on the faster upload connection for the daily money. Because 40/10 is far cheaper than 80/20 and max for the landline is 53/15 so no point getting the much more expensive. 4g has come along way and having a good external antenna helps massively too

gleaming wraith
#

apart from indian tech support scammers

#

and just general scams

jaunty saddle
#

Vodafone is completely unlimated. My grandparents do ha they have no idea what 'the internet' does

gleaming wraith
#

oh i was just about to mention if u needed contact with elderly people then fair enough

stiff wedge
#

Try restarting both pcs and check the speed in ndm files

#

It might be the issue where Salad couldn't get librespeed connected for the past few days

#

and it's fixed now

jaunty saddle
#

Its a weird one with salad, I had to reinstall on main desktop today to get containers back, and I'm tempted a re-install on the laptop to see if bandwidth comes back

#

You need 10 upload

jaunty saddle
#

BT ndm log, works fine but saturated upload making latency unbearable

stiff wedge
#

Try restarting the PC if you don't have anything important running

#

and it'll do the speed test again

upbeat shuttle
stiff wedge
#

Do it until both download and upload rate is 10

jaunty saddle
#

Most of my bandwidth earnings have been through that speed, taskmanager reports 10 down 10 up

#

Its running on that connection now fine, can't get the laptop running vodafone to start sgs-client

stiff wedge
#

Or try to stop all the Salad stuff from task manager, it might redo the speed test too

stiff wedge
#

You either get it by luck or 10mbps download and upload

jaunty saddle
#

Ill keep troubleshooting and see what happens, Otherwise I will have to run 2 seperate accounts on salad

upbeat shuttle
#

Unfortunately that'd be against Salad's TOS 😅

jaunty saddle
#

But surely as a business they would want as many unique and diverse PCs/Laptop and Internet connections as possible. If they can't allow me to run 2 instances of bandwidth sharing on 2 seperate devices connected to 2 seperate ISP's then they are loosing out

hollow vortex
#

take note - Bandwidth sharing you aren't going to see immediate earnings it may take time to get a bandwidth job.

upbeat shuttle
jaunty saddle
#

Yeah I'm well aware of that, but when its working sgs-client is running in the background waiting.

hollow vortex
#

theres times i restart , and SGS doesnt show up for an hour.

#

but usually when it shows up - i have a job - It doesn't show up on a fresh reboot untill salad recongizes im connected and ready for a job.

stiff wedge
#

Hm

jaunty saddle
#

They could do with a time delay before running a speedtest too! after a restart, steam, onedrive all the bloatware associated with windows fires up and talks to the world slowing the speed down too 😂

stiff wedge
#

For me sgs-client only works when either of my download and upload is over 10mbps

stiff wedge
#

It works for me

#

It reloads the whole salad application

#

it'll come back on itself

#

I'll just get my container going again and worry about it later!

jaunty saddle
upbeat shuttle
#

mmmm

#

I think so, currently

#

though I've managed to get 2 containers running, same IP, same account ofc, pretty easily

hollow vortex
#

my sgs client runs almost 24/7 sending and recieving data. -

stiff wedge
#

ye ik

#

but i didnt have to wait like u do

jaunty saddle
#

This is usual behavior, then watching it in resource manager you can see the connections roll in when a job come on. This is the desktop on the BT fresh off a reboot a minute ago

stiff wedge
#

i may or may not misunderstood but what i meant was my sgs client showed up instantly after i run salad with bandwidth enabled, instead of it not showing up for an hour

jaunty saddle
#

Yeah thats what generally happens if the app decides the ndm result is good enough. Laptop is now running xmrig because container running on pc. but no sign of sgs-client on laptop

#

Might leave them along for a few hours and see what happens, ultimately i want to try and persuade the laptop to get the bandwidth because that stays online 24/7

hollow vortex
jaunty saddle
#

Update. Re-installed on laptop, ndm speedtest 40/20, no bandwidth sharing happening, not even the workload is downloaded. Seems to me a possible one per account alot like the container

idle wing

Mine still hasn’t showed up after a day with 300/100 so don’t fret if it doesn’t show up after 10 minutes guys

Don’t really know if Oklahoma has to do something about it

I remember someone telling me a clean reinstall helped them but my laptop has too much valuable apps on it

hollow vortex

yeah windows but unfortunately a clean install of windows doesn't save the apps

#

i don't want to buy ~700 dollars worth of software again

kindred helm

tf did you buy with 700$

#

also cant you like just install the shits again if you already paid for them

idle wing

i lost them somewhere

#

bought hard copies and not online ones

#

chessbase 17 = ~500 dollars

#

powerfritz 18 = ~100 dollars

I made about 150 from that

from that $150 salad took away $15 from the 0.50 upcharge on paypal rewards

and I paid about 10 dollars on power bills

i shared 0 bytes bc no bandwidth job

#

stupid question but does sgs client run when you have the bandwidth sharing enabled or only when you get a bandwidth job

#

idk if the "working" is about getting a bandwidth job or if its broken or not
idk how to say it uhh

according to my latest ndm log uhh

ping: 47ms

hollow vortex
#

both are lil high - im like 20 pin and my jitter usually 1

gleaming shell
#

lemme check it on my other laptop real quick

hollow vortex
#

i know ping has an effect , im assuming jitter might not sure how indepth they go. as it says on the log im sure it takes a part it in

#

but they dont go in detail to that extent

gleaming shell
#

yeah i dont really know the requirements for ping and jitter too

hollow vortex
#

has the sgs downloaded at least?

gleaming shell
#

The latest version I don't think so

gleaming shell

well if you using the latest beta - i dont see why sgs wouldnt update with it /redownload after the install .

gleaming shell
#

yeah I'm using the container beta

hollow vortex
#

its a suggestion. as ozua mentioned

#

not promised a job

#

but ive been sharing my data almost the entire time i got containers working

#

a few hours i noticed no data tranfer , but mostly always transferring

are you in the UK?

hollow vortex
#

US east cost

gleaming shell
#

woah you're also in the US

hollow vortex
#

yeah PA

upbeat shuttle
#

ah

gleaming shell
#

idk I live in Iowa idk if it affects anything tho

upbeat shuttle
#

yeah I should probably add to my pinned messages that people in the US find it much more difficult to get bandwidth sharing jobs / sgs-client to open

hollow vortex
#

ive shared a SS the other day i had over 200 IPs connected to sgs - this says 50 now .

gleaming shell
#

brb boutta move the uk

gleaming shell
#

I think I've seen ppl use it but idk what it's called

hollow vortex
#

lol no issues in PA , shared over 300 gigs in 3 days . lol and its called glasswire

#

I use another network analizer to see what is actually going through my modem. cause i dont want no illegal shit even tho salad promises nothing illegal .

gleaming shell
#

time to reinstall salad to see if it even does anything i guess

hollow vortex
#

here is my " all time host connections through sgs. not enough numbers to display LOL

gleaming shell
#

is glasswire free?

#

or am i doing it wrong

hollow vortex
#

im using trial verson testing it out.

that's the only way salad can offer cheap services to companies I guess

#

or else why would they bother switching to salad anyways

#

orr I'm wrong and there's somethig wrong with ur bandwidth

#

ur probably getting low value jobs

#

I got more than a dollar from sharing 89 GB today

hollow vortex

Lucky. I get low value jobs :/

idle wing

I definitely got low value

I get ~.3-.6 cents every 15 minutes

I'm not sure where you read that, but I've never seen those numbers being recommended as a minimum before.

rancid karma
#

huh bandwidth sharing suddenly fixed from new years

rancid karma
upbeat shuttle
#

yeahh you're always limited by the weakest chain in the link

#

There's really just 3 chains in play though:
Whether or not your PC / network can handle the throughput - Basically any PC that was already functioning on the internet should be able to spit out at least a good 100/100 speeds.
Your download speeds.
Your upload speeds. This tends to almost always be much lower than your download speeds, which is why most people mistakenly think that upload is all that matters.
Both of them matter basically just as much as eachother, maybe with download coming out just a few steps ahead in importance.

#

how can i get bandwidth sharing to work? It didn't work for like 3 months now

#

its enabled tho

upbeat shuttle
#

do you have any other hardware enabled?

#

and what version of salad are you using

reef linden
#

well CPU for container

#

1.0.9 beta2

upbeat shuttle
#

ah hm

reef linden
#

do i need 1.0.8?

upbeat shuttle
#

I had a bit of issue running containers + bandwidth sharing before

#

I managed to get it working once by first starting Salad without CPU enabled, so sgs-client started, then I think I enabled CPU.
Either that, or I started Salad with just CPU enabled, so vmmem started. I then stopped Salad, disabled CPU, enabled Bandwidth Sharing, started Salad. Then enabled CPU.

reef linden
#

so this "cheat code" might work?

thorn lantern
upbeat shuttle
#

A big potential flaw in the second method is that stopping Salad may now actually stop vmmem properly. I assume before I just got lucky that it failed to stop vmmem. Or maybe it didn't stop because it was still within the first minute of starting, so couldn't stop until it had finished starting..

upbeat shuttle

nothing, I was just afraid that this would be another case of someone in the US not being able to get it to work, no matter what they tried

#

have you checked the quality of your IP address? and whether those IP quality checker sites consider your IP as being residential or business

reef linden
#

can you link me some?

upbeat shuttle

i mean this should look alright?

upbeat shuttle

doesn't look bad

#

what if Salad doesn't support IPv6..?

reef linden
#

hmm

#

what can I do about that

upbeat shuttle
#

uhhhh

reef linden
#

Im connected per Powerline adapter LAN cable

upbeat shuttle
#

that wouldn't be the issue

#

it's the IP that your ISP has provided you

#

it's not like it's bad, but it's a different format to IPv4 IPs

#

and probably acts a bit differently

reef linden
#

should I try with disabling ipv6?

upbeat shuttle
#

I'm not sure if that's possible

upbeat shuttle
#

you just click on the 'Your IP address is: ..'

looks like my IP is suspicious.. :/

I checked this site before starting Bandwidth Sharing and it was safe, but oh well..

what is the unit of bidirthroughput in the logs?

does that mean the amount of data transferred, i assume? but in what unit?

#

i assumed it was bits but one of my values were "9158586.666666666" which i assumed as bits

#

but when u convert it it's 9.15 megabits not megabytes

#

but then on task manager the usage is like 30megabits per second

or what i should be asking as a whole

#

which is an F

#

ahh if only salad worked with a business isp

#

i'd be fuckin rich

hollow vortex
#

ohter day i have 250 plus hosts - last day ive had betwee 120-150 on and off-_-

subtle condor
#

back when it first came out

#

old screenshot

pseudo fog
#

atleast u are in a supported country dead

hollow vortex
#

only goingto make less unless there client base shoots up and bandwidth is on a higher demand from em

pulsar arrow
#

but yes earnings are not stable since they removed the guaranteed base earnings

thorn lantern
pulsar arrow
#

everybody take turns on bandwidth sharing so that we get paid troll l

thorn lantern
#

i dont think thats how it works

pulsar arrow
#

it kinda does, there's not a lot of jobs so less people running bandwith means higher number of jobs for the ones who do

#

= more earnings

#

that's what happened when the speedtest crashed the other day for the UK

#

I started getting 6$ a day

thorn lantern
upbeat shuttle
#

so what you're saying is that we should DDOS the entire UK (for legal reasons, I must state that this is a joke within the same message)

thorn lantern
pulsar arrow
pulsar arrow
#

u can get a spare laptop to run at home all the time

thorn lantern
pulsar arrow
#

I think it's like a local thing

#

jobs aren't shared between countries

#

or I'm wrong

#

we need more companies to use the salad network so we have more jobs

thorn lantern
#

but they need to use uk vpn option to

pulsar arrow
#

wdym

thorn lantern
#

its like a vpn they said

#

you need to choice the countire

pulsar arrow
#

yes they provide like bandwidth for vpns and such

#

to access geo locked content and stuff

thorn lantern
#

so if they dont choice uk we dont get jobs

hollow vortex
#

yeah im averaging 30-40 cents a day from bandwidth . aint complaining .

pulsar arrow
#

well if a vpn is getting on salad, no way they'd leave out the UK since it has a good population that stream content

thorn lantern
#

yes

#

well rn its 18:21 just need to check earnsing

#

earnings

#

rn im at 0.305

pulsar arrow
thorn lantern
#

uk is the best place to bandwith share

pulsar arrow
#

I'm earning around 0.3-0.45 per 15 mins

thorn lantern
#

same

pulsar arrow
#

other countries might steal the show

hollow vortex
pulsar arrow
#

salad sure did a great job with marketing

hollow vortex
pulsar arrow
#

lmfaoo nice

#

how much bandwith shared?

hollow vortex
#

bout 100 gig

#

seem to average that daily

pulsar arrow
#

I'm averaging around 1-2tbs per week

#

6 tbs so far

hollow vortex
#

nice

pulsar arrow
hollow vortex
#

Im jelly

pulsar arrow
#

dw lol they did say that containers would be worked on in the next 6 months

thorn lantern
#

mine

pulsar arrow
#

so you might earn.more

thorn lantern
#

22gb used

pulsar arrow
thorn lantern

in past

pulsar arrow

22gbs a day, keep going

thorn lantern

Oh wow

thorn lantern

46 host

thorn lantern
pulsar arrow
#

haven't checked lol

#

not at home rn

thorn lantern
#

oh work ?

pulsar arrow
#

yeah something like that

hollow vortex
#

i believe - the longer you're connected - moved up on the chain for jobs apart from your bandwidth speed/ping and etc.

#

unless just your XP level helps with that ?

pulsar arrow
#

your right but salad plans to rank your reliability based on xp in the future

  • from the CEO in a twitch stream
thorn lantern
#

im in uk they have best speeds

pulsar arrow
hollow vortex
#

so not XP based now ? and im not getting xp for bandwidth sharing last i knew.

pulsar arrow
#

Well I dunno

thorn lantern
#

my xp is 30k

pulsar arrow
#

containers would be probably based on reliability

thorn lantern
#

yes

pulsar arrow
#

since they're important stuff for like AI workloads

hollow vortex
#

Well im going on 4 1/2 days no reboot . and my ISP has a 99.4% uptime -

thorn lantern
#

my family uses only 2 devices not including me so i bandwith share and every time i get a job

#

my isp 100%

#

uptime

hollow vortex
#

whose your ISP?

thorn lantern
#

virgin media

pulsar arrow
#

same

pulsar arrow
thorn lantern
#

they put some ethernet cable in my router to improve speed and uptime

thorn lantern
#

package

pulsar arrow
#

132mbps down 22 up

#

what about yours

thorn lantern
#

mine 250mbps down 30 up

pulsar arrow
#

Nice

#

UK has terrible upload speeds

thorn lantern
#

yes i noticed that

hollow vortex
pulsar arrow
#

I upload quite a lot and Im afraid it'll affect sgs client

hollow vortex
#

im 1200 down/35 up

thorn lantern
#

i do nothing i just watch yt or do hwk like essays

pulsar arrow
pulsar arrow
thorn lantern
hollow vortex
#

xfinity

pulsar arrow
thorn lantern
#

no fixed

hollow vortex
thorn lantern
pulsar arrow
#

us

thorn lantern
#

oh

#

so normaly i recive 200mbps so shall i use Ethernet to improve it

#

to 250mbps

pulsar arrow
#

other Isps already offer 150 up and 1gig down

#

Still not ideal as symmetrical would be preferred but better than before I guess

hollow vortex
pulsar arrow
#

Isnt there like a law that says Isps should have a minimum guaranteed speeds

#

if they don't hit that for like 3 or more days you can usually end your contract early

hollow vortex
#

i believe they have a thing - as long as they tell you " speeds may very " which most ISPS in us say that - you cant do nothing about it.

thorn lantern
#

im going this is effecting my sgs

pulsar arrow
#

Check if your windows have like delivery optimization turned on

#

they peer updates to other pcs nearby

#

meaning upload some

hollow vortex
#

i use Killer Control center to prioritize my ineternet off my pc. only have 2 phones a tablet and 2 other things off wifi that dont use much .

pulsar arrow
#

is that part of windows

#

or a router thing

hollow vortex
#

its a program that is only compatible with Killer Ethernet /killer wifi cards

pulsar arrow
#

Ah so it's like an external firewall got it

thorn lantern
#

ah

#

why dont salad make a phone app for bandwith sharing

hollow vortex
thorn lantern
#

i found out gaming will lower your earnings

#

by a 0.1

hollow vortex
#

i suppose it would depend how much of that is using your up/down

thorn lantern
#

yes

hollow vortex
#

would mean you have less available to use

thorn lantern
#

yes

hollow vortex
#

makes sense

thorn lantern
#

yes

hollow vortex
#

i shouldn't do this. but im going to install the update for my ethernet card lol. there goes all my clients connected to me lol

thorn lantern

They really need bigger selection of Speed test. cuz this one i always connect to - never gives me a decent speed.

gleaming wraith

what's the average earning per gb

frigid reef
#

we dont know also changes per place

gleaming wraith
#

then let's start collecting data ourselves and see what it looks like

pulsar arrow
#

I nominate you to do the work for us

gleaming wraith
#

nein

#

i don't have an appropriate program that monitors data transfer over a period of time

#

nor do i have the capability to run bandwidth sharing for 24 hours

idle wing
#

glasswire

#

oh

#

yeah nor do I

#

i have the program but i can't run it 24/7

gleaming wraith
#

i don't want a third party firewall

idle wing
#

is it? i haven't a clue

gleaming wraith
#

ik it can monitor data transfer too

#

but

idle wing
#

i use it to monitor data transfer

gleaming wraith
idle wing
#

oh

#

eh i don't use the firewall feature

#

it's premium

#

so free version only has network monitor

stiff wedge
#

Hilarious

#

Salad won’t even fully release bandwidth in 3 4 months

pulsar arrow
#

damn they've moved into honeygain now

gleaming wraith
#

brother

#

honeygain is a pain in the ass

#

they banned me at $9

#

and i used the $5 on signup promo

i got unbanned after cos i explained it was a misunderstanding

Oh ok

sharp birch
#

Can i use Vpns with Salad?

frigid reef
#

not with bandwidth sharing

#

and the other workloads wont benefit from a vpn

sharp birch
#

ok

subtle condor
#

It may also cause mining shares to go stale

#

because of the latency

upbeat shuttle
#

@safe loom oi aussie

#

do you use Salad

#

or at least have it installed and are willing to open it to check if Bandwidth Sharing is available to you

did they roll it out for Australia ?

also i can confirm its not just a stream missup

#

jared said it is indeed

pulsar arrow
#

make India the priority

#

ez

pseudo fog
#

India is already the priority amongamogus other countries

#

itd be funny to see buying Salad with Salad Balance though

junior shoal
#

apparently, you can use prepaid visas in ubereats

frigid reef
safe loom
#

obviously countries have more data demand than others

#

india has a shit ton of bandwidth, but likely not enough demand from SGS customers

#

like australia is being added, and i think i know 5 people in the server that use salad here, you just need a balance of available bandwidth and demand

#

no one can tell when it happens, so you just wait until it does

safe loom
#

your wording was dumb there

#
  • vpns are not allowed
  • vpns are disallowed
  • vpns will not work
frigid reef
#

no, people just need to learn english

#

if i put a , then it would have been incorrect

#

please come to me when you fix your english

safe loom
#

you need a comma

#

you failed english bro

frigid reef
#

....

#

please come back to me when you learn english

#

i might have failed but it mainly was for not focusing on the exam

safe loom
#

ratio

frigid reef
#

my bad, i should have added capitals to I and VPNs

safe loom
#

without the proper wording you said no vpns are allowed, one would read that as no, vpns are allowed

#

within the context

#

disallowed rn

frigid reef
#

i didnt say that though, i said no vpns allowed

#

what is correct

#

its not my fault if they read it completely differently to what i wrote down

safe loom
#

no

#

just

#

say

#

vpns are disallowed

#

simples

#

chk chk

frigid reef
#

you don't see signs saying smoking is disallowed you see no smoking here, or no smoking allowed

#

please come back to me when you fix your brain

safe loom
#

yes but they have grammar, your sentence didn’t

#

you added allowed to a sentence that means to say that it’s disallowed

frigid reef
#

find me the grammar

safe loom
#

you don’t see no smoking allowed on signs

#

apart from that one

frigid reef
safe loom

but they don’t have the context

that you had

why dont bandwidht sharing work

id ont get money

have you read the pinned troubleshooting guide

where is that

in the pinned messages here

modern panther

so i should stop using my virtual machine while bandwidth sharing??

upbeat shuttle
#

huh

modern panther
#

what

upbeat shuttle
#

what you what

modern panther
#

what you what you what

#

ok

#

so im currently running a vm

#

but i used the bandwidth sharing in my host pc

#

should i not run the vm

#

i think that is what you are implying

#

man there should be a visible eligibility checklist in the app instead of this obscure bullshit

upbeat shuttle
modern panther
#

i dont see the bandwidth sharing in the salad program data files

#

why is this

#

why is there no error

#

@upbeat shuttle come back

upbeat shuttle
#

all of my knowledge is in the pinned messages

modern panther
#

ok

upbeat shuttle
#

so my advice is to read it again, and then again, and then again

modern panther
#

why do salad gotta make us read your pins

upbeat shuttle
#

well

#

bandwidth sharing is still technically in beta

modern panther
#

is 13 mbps upload speed good enough for bandwidht shainrg

They give potential things that can make it work, and explanations for why it might not work

I'm not earning either, been running for like a whole day too

I have reset mine about 6 times today due to issues got jobs instantly and I still got them

hybrid delta

ive done like 3 restarts today and still nothing

#

i don’t pay him to sit around all day

#

actually would connecting the computer to ethernet increase chances of getting higher in the job queue?

frigid reef
#

Well restating it does put you back at the start of the list in most situations

upbeat shuttle
#

perhaps

frigid reef
#

Ethernet could lead to a more stable ping meaning that salad might choose you other another user

hybrid delta
#

ill give it a try

frigid reef
#

Though again the best chance is to just leave it on without any distractions even if it means having it on for days

hybrid delta

currently got 11 ping via wifi

eh ill leave it until the end of the week and see how it goes
