Bandwidth Sharing FAQs + Troubleshooting

[upbeat shuttle]

no idea

never bothered to figure it out

[civic fern]

i do think so... since sgs-client did 40MBs of data

[upbeat shuttle]

i feel like it might be just bits / bytes

[civic fern]

and i see 3-4 lines showing actual usage

[upbeat shuttle]

but i could be wrong

[civic fern]

all around "8000"

oh well, glad that it's starting to do something tho

slowly but surely

[cerulean carbon]

thanks for the reply guys!!

and one more thing @upbeat shuttle can bw be enabled on 2 pcs? (for future use)

[twin vector]

1 pc per network/ip

[civic fern]

as far as i know, yes, but on different networks

(i'm not ozua)

[cerulean carbon]

oh

thanks

so can't use both at home!

[civic fern]

theoretically, if you had a good phone hotspot with unlimited data... you could have two of them

i'm just saying

[cerulean carbon]

sus

[upbeat shuttle]

the latency would probably be too bad

[civic fern]

[subtle condor]

5.5$ 550 down 36 up uk

Also does anybody here have Zen as their ISP?

I might be switching to it and I wanna know people's experiences with it

[unique cedar]

when Italy bw sharing fix

[cerulean carbon]

Still getting 5?

[subtle condor]

yes

Only if I run it for a few days consistently though

[cerulean carbon]

Ooh

Hopefully I'll get earnings like that one day

[subtle condor]

Are you in the UK?

[still tendon]

i have a bad feeling about trying to use bandwidth sharing in france

I think I'll have left it for 5 days before anything happens

[pulsar arrow]

overslept and woke up to this , W

[green lantern]

dang

i should oversleep

[pulsar arrow]

fr

[modern panther]

i should oversleep and get murdered by my parents

for forgetting school

[pulsar arrow]

yes

[civic fern]

go go go! :D

[modern panther]

i murdered sgs client 2 times and its not coming back 😔

[civic fern]

well... you murdered it

that's how it works

[modern panther]

yea but it wasnt intentional 😔

[civic fern]

won't change the outcome

GUILTY!

[modern panther]

fuck you

[civic fern]

ok

[modern panther]

ok

[pulsar arrow]

no

[green lantern]

what is 46mb

[civic fern]

data used by sgs-client.exe

[green lantern]

dang

[naive lava]

oh well i witnessed nova getting insane yesterday...

lmaooo

[patent coyote]

true

im weird and insane

[hollow vortex]

well lost sgs after a reboot. prolly be another week till i see it again.

[hollow vortex]

i lied. got it back. and got back to which was the one i always got .

[safe loom]

yes

that’s US’s gateway

[hollow vortex]

really?

[safe loom]

yes

[hollow vortex]

💀

wouldve never guessed considering im in US. thanks

[safe loom]

well you posted it acting like it had new information champion

if you knew what it was why inform us?

[hollow vortex]

no you interrupted incorrectly.

[cinder seal]

How much max do cpu containers pay ? Any idea

[kindred helm]

around 1$ a day?

also wrong channel?

[gleaming shell]

Me when container beta channel dead

[foggy mica]

My First $200 on 🥗

[frigid reef]

congrats, now do you need support?

[foggy mica]

☝️❓

[tardy swan]

https://tenor.com/view/guh-cat-gif-22906544

[frigid reef]

he in a support channel soooo

[tardy swan]

im still confused on how i got bandwidth sharing from somalia

I'd say it's pretty close

[charred sparrow]

yooo thanks for the shoutout to my country

[true hemlock]

and me still here can't get bandwidth assigned even though it has been under testing from ages in India lmao

[frigid reef]

yeah thats normal, its india

[true hemlock]

haha true

[shadow ivy]

e

[tardy swan]

2 bw folders

[hollow vortex]

same

cuz there diff gateway

[silver mulch]

is it normal to get no bandwidth for a while

[pulsar arrow]

yes

keep it running and it'll pick up a job eventually

[pulsar arrow]

job after job

slowing down because night time

makes sense

less demand

[stiff wedge]

hehe im still getting full pay

but its like 0.03 for me :/

[lethal quail]

I am just gpu mining cause no jobs for r5 5600x

[white knot]

@random zealot but btw whats ur up/down network speed

[random zealot]

?

[white knot]

if >10/10 mbps then u can wait 4 it

[sullen quail]

no but i still have linux open lol

was trying to buffer overflow a windows vm

[weak river]

nope

[neon blade]

u still get sgs?

[weak river]

yes

[subtle condor]

I hate when bandwidth sharing randomly dies :(

[pulsar arrow]

I have no jobs atm

[subtle condor]

I had all the jobs until that

[pulsar arrow]

been getting a shitty graph all night lol

[green lantern]

sadge

[white knot]

avg. american bw user be like

[green lantern]

i also have it

just uses nothing

[cerulean carbon]

ye, last one i got was yesterday

[hollow vortex]

Lol use to get that, but think they fixed that on the us gateways . Never see it anymore

[pulsar arrow]

is it back for ya

[hollow vortex]

Mines been someone steady , spikes of high bw data but deff seems to be a lot less then a few weeks ago.

Half tempted to try to tunnel to UK through a VPN. I usually run. A 6ms 0 jitter on libspeed

[pulsar arrow]

UK supply is high

demand is constant

[frigid reef]

I wish

[pulsar arrow]

I'm not getting jobs 😭

[pulsar arrow]

👀

[sullen quail]

Siill issue

[sullen quail]

Whqt is this with?

[hollow vortex]

Ouch

[pulsar arrow]

bw sharing

[sullen quail]

Spiked a 2 a day damn

[pulsar arrow]

used to get 3.6 every day consistently

[pulsar arrow]

this is absolutely terrible

I'm making like almost CPU container earnings with bandwidth

I'm not sure if this is my network issue or a low paying job

my sgs client keeps jumping from 0mbps to 32mbps every few seconds

if this is a low paying job, well it's not worth it

we need to be able to do multiple jobs at once

[pulsar arrow]

my internet is fine and Im not even using any of it at the moment

BRUH IT KEEPS GOING FROM HIGH USAGE TO LILE 2MBPS WTF IS THIS

[frigid reef]

what like 90mbps to 10mbps

[pulsar arrow]

sgs is using like 32mbps for like 2 seconds

then going to 2mbps

[frigid reef]

for how long

[pulsar arrow]

for like 5-7

then it comes back again

my glasswire graph is literally just tiny spikes

[frigid reef]

I had those jobs before

[pulsar arrow]

now it's at 48mbps again

and there we go it's 6 now

and now 0

the bigger spikes are me using Google chrome so ignore that

the ones at the end is sgs activity

[frigid reef]

yeah the next day I had maxed out bw

[pulsar arrow]

Well this is me for most of the day

some days it's maxed out then for like the next 2-3 days it's like this

I've contacted support

that's all I can do tbh

[hollow vortex]

Yeah mine was doing 104mbps both ways on and off last night . Ended up doing 4 gig in 5 mins lol

[pulsar arrow]

mine is just cursed

but gg on the working sgs

[hollow vortex]

Yeah, idk I was messing with it hard core till it kicked on . Was pissing me off. Glad I know it's not my new ISP . Just salad being salad.

[pulsar arrow]

gave my salad a restart and immediately kicked on SGS and throughput

let's see if this lasts

[shrewd terrace]

Why do my jobs keep getting stolen

Every 2 days

[pulsar arrow]

sgs moment bro

[hollow vortex]

Hides.

Lol

[pulsar arrow]

wow

that restart really did do something

off to the library

will check back in a few hours to see if it stays

[hollow vortex]

Did u connect to the same gateway ?

Not the best SGS has gave me, but it's better then nothing .

[pulsar arrow]

not sure

I'm outside rn

not gonna remote into my pc incase it'll break something

sgs still going strong according to earnings

[peak terrace]

💊

[pulsar arrow]

wohoo it died out so quick

well not died out

but yeah

[opal echo]

Yeshhh finally bandwidth japan

Got the sgs

[opal echo]

How can I check this for myself?

[pulsar arrow]

glasswire

[opal echo]

Thanks

[pulsar arrow]

np

[opal echo]

I'm new to bw lol

[pulsar arrow]

nice

[subtle condor]

I meant to paste this 💀

[pulsar arrow]

how are you getting job after job

[pulsar arrow]

are you downloading anything else

on your network

[subtle condor]

no

[pulsar arrow]

it'll freak out quite easily when it doesn't get enough bandwidth

[subtle condor]

well I'm using my friends laptop but yea

[pulsar arrow]

hmm

[subtle condor]

the bandwidth server seemed to have crashed

[pulsar arrow]

WiFi right?

[subtle condor]

Ethernet

[pulsar arrow]

hm

mines still running

[subtle condor]

oh

[frigid reef]

my bandwidth sharing been poo poo today

[pulsar arrow]

mines even more poo poo

the earliest the openreach engineer can get here is 19 april

wtff

[foggy mica]

new?

[kindred helm]

ayo

[frigid reef]

yes, announcement about it soon. Also for non bw sharing support please go to #community-support or make a new post in the form

[kindred helm]

chopping cart no way

[pseudo fog]

1.72$

a day

[frigid reef]

... lily

do you mind

[pseudo fog]

do i mind

[hollow vortex]

No

[kindred helm]

i dont have a mind

[frigid reef]

your responding to support from last night in the bw sharing channel

[pseudo fog]

yes

[frigid reef]

what isnt even bw question

[pseudo fog]

people ask support in lobby

[hollow vortex]

^

[pseudo fog]

also the new ui on salad.com/store is gradual rollout i think

going before nova bonks me

cya

[frigid reef]

indeed, but this is support for just bw sharing, as its a bw sharing fourm, also get the info correct, its 1.92 a day

[pseudo fog]

who said 1$ a day

[shadow ivy]

e

bro i was making $4.50 a day and then my pc crashed, now bw isn't working at all

[mighty fractal]

new ui?

oh wow

cool

i have just seen

what they have added?

[shadow ivy]

damn back to bw not working for a bit

[gleaming shell]

My is the most poo poo out of all the poo poo

Mine*

[little saffron]

wich country ?

[little saffron]

wich country ?

[gleaming shell]

I think both are uk

[little saffron]

woow

[little saffron]

wich ping min is needed ?

[gleaming shell]

I don't think there is a min requirement but the lower is better

[little saffron]

okay

why does uk have so big usage ?

[gleaming shell]

They have higher demand

It sucks here in the United States

[spark adder]

Where do you check this?

[neon blade]

i

checked

press windows

then type data usage

then click data usage

[spark adder]

Alr

[neon blade]

then scroll down

[spark adder]

Thanks man

Also I don’t seem to have bw sharing yet

But the folder is present in logs

(In ind)

[little saffron]

but 200 gig a day?

[upbeat shuttle]

Salad advertises less than 100ms to their customers, so I'd assume that's roughly the limit

[little saffron]

okay

just uk high demand or other countrys too ?

[upbeat shuttle]

I haven't seen other countries with nearly as high demand as the UK so far

[little saffron]

[pulsar arrow]

The government watching too much content instead of actually managing the country properly

that's why the demands so high

[hollow vortex]

Sounds like you lost your spot in que.

[hollow vortex]

100ms I believe .

[hollow vortex]

If only they sorted out the bw jobs by your speed 😌

Like client picks their speed for the bw they want to use lol

Be golden. If that was the case!

[upbeat shuttle]

sucks that there's many other factors at play

[pulsar arrow]

if only multiple jobs were allowed at the same time

provided enough bandwidth

[silver mulch]

how to check if salad check my internet speeds for bandwidth

[upbeat shuttle]

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking

[silver mulch]

is there a log to check my upload and download on salad

[hollow vortex]

Check ur logs for ndm lib speed. Runs everytime u start ur computer .

[upbeat shuttle]

C:\ProgramData\Salad\logs\ndm

[little saffron]

dont have that ):

[silver mulch]

Ok I have a log and it shows my down load and upload speeds so now what?

[hollow vortex]

What is your upload/download? As long as they are over 10.mbps both ways, ping is lower then 100ms. Make sure I have BW enabled. And leave salad running. Should start when salad needs ur internet - ( however ) ( I spam the start stop and reboot - still it kicks in usually within 10 mins - just me lol prolly screws up trust score or w.e

[upbeat shuttle]

Are you sure you checked the right folder..?

[little saffron]

yeah

ah nvm found it

[tranquil sand]

support for india bandwith sharing?

[upbeat shuttle]

[hollow vortex]

Bw in Hawaii when?

[tranquil sand]

what pins

nvm

[upbeat shuttle]

i wish for nothing but the sweet release of-

[tranquil sand]

of?

[pulsar arrow]

storage sharing

[tranquil sand]

fr

release of free gaming pcs

[silver mulch]

do bandwidth jobs pay good

[upbeat shuttle]

depends what country you're in, what internet speeds you're getting, and how lucky you are

[silver mulch]

i am in the united states and im averaging 90 to 100 mbs with fibre optic and hardwired

[upbeat shuttle]

hmm

people in the US have reported getting relatively low earnings, though the best way to tell how much you'll earn is to just try it and see :)

[silver mulch]

ok i just use bandwidth anyways since cpu sucks

[tranquil sand]

when is india support coming

[upbeat shuttle]

[tranquil sand]

i wanna knbow when

[tranquil sand]

can i ping u

[upbeat shuttle]

we don't know when

[tranquil sand]

sadge

[tranquil sand]

how to get senior chefs

[upbeat shuttle]

talk more to get to level 30 (!rank in #bot-commands)

[tranquil sand]

oh well

can you see this

im lvl 6 😂

[silver mulch]

so is there a queue to get into bandwidth earning

[upbeat shuttle]

yep

some countries' queues may be short, some countries' queues may be long

[silver mulch]

so bassically when someone leaves the queue i get bumped up

[upbeat shuttle]

basically yeah

[silver mulch]

so its better to not stop it

[upbeat shuttle]

yeah

[sullen quail]

You can use gpu and bw right

[upbeat shuttle]

Yep

[near karma]

bandwidth sharing

UK
500 // 70

[sullen quail]

What internet speed u got

[kindred helm]

h

[upbeat shuttle]

the pain of reading

[sullen quail]

I didn't know If that was speeds or not

[upbeat shuttle]

ah

[hollow vortex]

Storage sharing has always been a low paying long term thing just a FYI .

[kindred helm]

makes sense

mouse sharing

[pulsar arrow]

brain sharing - neuralink

[pseudo fog]

how do you know

[sullen quail]

pc share at that point

[pseudo fog]

any storage sharing app u have?

[unique cedar]

@upbeat shuttle any ETA for a fix of bw sharing in italy

[upbeat shuttle]

this is the first I've heard of Italy's bandwidth sharing being broken

[unique cedar]

been waiting a month

when it connects to the italian server upload rate drops

so i have to use frankfurt's server

@civic fern is it still broken for u aswell

since u had problems too

[pulsar arrow]

that's because some servers don't behave well with salad

only some

and salad doesn't have an option to select an alternative server

it's 2023 damnit

QOS should be top notch in this era

[unique cedar]

yeah restarting everytime is annoying but there probably wouldnt be issues if librespeed wasnt used

[pulsar arrow]

you can end the salad bowl service in task manager and it'll run the speedtest again

no need to restart

[unique cedar]

ye i meant that

[silver mulch]

what does that do

[pulsar arrow]

it reruns the speedtest

[silver mulch]

can i get bandwidth faster doing that

[pulsar arrow]

no

if your over the threshold you'll be eligible for bw sharing

[silver mulch]

whats the threshhold

[pulsar arrow]

10mbps

both ways

[silver mulch]

ya im over that

[pulsar arrow]

yeah your eligible then

[silver mulch]

how does restarting saladbowl service help?

[pulsar arrow]

it's now up to sgs client to grab a job

[pulsar arrow]

I just meant it as an alternative to restarting your whole pc in case your speedtest is not working properly

restarting your computer reruns the speedtest

[silver mulch]

oh why would u need to rerun speed test

[pulsar arrow]

in case it fails

ignore this

[stiff wedge]

t

[slim lantern]

still getting this how can i fix it

[hollow vortex]

that is telling you its looking for BW jobs. its good

[slim lantern]

its been going for ages whats taking so long for it?

[hollow vortex]

no jobs available. youre connected and waiting for a a client to use your bandwidth. so your waiting on " clients
:

[cerulean carbon]

librespeed-cli.exe

is that bw/

[upbeat shuttle]

that's the internet speed test

[cerulean carbon]

i was excited for nothing

it used like 2 gb so i thought bw

[modest kettle]

what about cloudflarewarp

[cerulean carbon]

vpn?

[modest kettle]

not really idk

[sullen quail]

Not a VPN I don't think, someone said it changes DNs

[cerulean carbon]

oh

[upbeat shuttle]

hm

it's apparently not exactly a vpn

[frigid reef]

though im pretty sure there is 2 versions, 1 that changes the dns and 1 that changes dns and your location

[sullen quail]

I would just disable it no jot have to worry whether or not it is

W grammer

[green lantern]

@upbeat shuttle Would a wifi extender improve earnings from bw sharing?

[upbeat shuttle]

uhhhh

it kinda depends on your exact setup, which i don't know

[wary vale]

What are the supported countries?

[upbeat shuttle]

check the pinned messages

[wary vale]

ahh man, not supported for my country

[south hornet]

sooooo, i hear bandwidth sharing aint a thing in canada yet apparently (unless im dumb and blind,)

[upbeat shuttle]

yeah not yet

[wary vale]

will it be out there in India in near future ?

[upbeat shuttle]

maybe

[wary vale]

ohk

[south hornet]

dunno what that does, but it sounds like it'd help my computer with doing helping Salad services, which would get me money

[upbeat shuttle]

yep

^

[south hornet]

what places do you plan on making bandwidth sharing possible in the future?

[upbeat shuttle]

^

[hollow vortex]

Woke up to a dead router . Ooof

[sullen quail]

Skill issue

[hollow vortex]

More like hardware issue 🤔

[sullen quail]

On yourside yes

[slim lantern]

logs showing 0 and not getting any usage but have very fast internet

[modern panther]

because you have to wait

[frigid reef]

Indeed, you need to wait for your bandwidth to be used by the company, similar to how containers work

[slim lantern]

so this log shows no errors just waiting?

[frigid reef]

yes

[little saffron]

would it work if i take a residential uk ip and put it before my pc so my wohle pc has that ip (ping under 100ms ?)

[frigid reef]

[little saffron]

tell me

[frigid reef]

Nu

[little saffron]

wat

mean

?=

[frigid reef]

Idk

That’s my answer

[little saffron]

mmmh

[sullen quail]

Do it and tell us

[safe loom]

how are you gonna do that?

anyways

no

and its against tos to try and do

[peak terrace]

[little saffron]

does bw sharing work without any gpu with salad just askin

[pseudo fog]

does a pc work without gpu

[little saffron]

yes

(:

I mean a dedicated gpu btw

[tardy swan]

you got your answer

[pseudo fog]

which pc works without a gpu

[tardy swan]

[upbeat shuttle]

Yeah

[little saffron]

one of mine doe

[pseudo fog]

then why are gpus needed in the first plafe

place

those overkill 4090 rigs are unnecesarry

unnecessary*

[still tendon]

who needs a 4090 when you can just buy no gpu

smh some people are dumb

[pseudo fog]

including u

why the fuck 3060

btw my

Pc has

A fried gpu

And it still doesnt work

[peak terrace]

very bad job

low pay

also cpu containers are broken

[little saffron]

you dont understand men

Some cpus have intigradet gpus to run low graphics

[pseudo fog]

thats a gpu

[little saffron]

[pseudo fog]

not no gpu

[little saffron]

wat

no

still no gpu dedicated what i said

read

[peak terrace]

intigradet

[pulsar arrow]

rip bandwidth sharing

[sullen quail]

where at?

[pulsar arrow]

uk

[sullen quail]

kinda knew it

wish i was at uk i got 200mbps

[sullen quail]

what speeds

[pulsar arrow]

132/20

those are shit earnings

[sullen quail]

the amount i would get...

[pulsar arrow]

not what i get usually

[pulsar arrow]

not much since jobs are becoming rare

[sullen quail]

damn wtf would it get with 200 up and down

[pulsar arrow]

atleast for me

[opal echo]

I lost my 4 CPU containers after getting a sgs Client

Is this related? Now I can't even get a single vmmem

[twin vector]

You can get vmmem while having sgs, just might not say a next 24 hours amount

[gleaming shell]

damn you cant get vmmem while having sgs?
i remember you could

or im just on to something idk

[pseudo fog]

wen idia badwidth

have me speeled bedwidt rithg now?

[true hemlock]

?

[gleaming shell]

badwidth

[cerulean carbon]

wot

[modern panther]

ok

[white knot]

goodwidth waht is dat

[final torrent]

It appears that theres no bandwitdth sharing folder under salad folder. It used to be there and I'm not sure why it isn't anymore. Any ideas why?

I have check my upload and download speed are all good

[modern panther]

because you need to wait

[final torrent]

I'm in a supported country as well and I am not using a VPN

[final torrent]

no

[modern panther]

i personally waited a long time for a bandwidth job

even though i was in the supported country

[modern panther]

yes

[final torrent]

can you not reply

[modern panther]

i literally just gave you my own experience with bandwidth sharing

if you ask literally anyone else they will tell you to wait

go on ask

[final torrent]

I have restarted and reinstalled salad too just for some additional information

[modern panther]

u should ping the community support assistant if you want a faster answer smh

although they are guaranteed to say you have to wait

[final torrent]

fck off, im just gonna block you so I dont see your messages

[modern panther]

👍

[hollow vortex]

its cause salad sucks , itsa hit n miss . the way the bandwidth works its it leaves you guessing weather or not its working properly. rather then " leaving you connected to the client to let you know its all good - just waiting for a job. lol'

[modern panther]

fr

[hollow vortex]

from my expierence , if SGS doesn't start within 15 mins of starting salad - it will not " automatically " pop on - ive left my shit on for a week and didn't get it. but other times i've rebooted , stop/start untill it came on lol. times i connect to a diff gateway and get 0 traffic for two days. reboot to connect to a spefic one that i always get bw - and its a win. makes no sense

[final torrent]

Ah I see!

[hollow vortex]

but they say " if your passing the min requirments leave it running " when its needed it will start" i call b.s

[final torrent]

Hmm true.

[hollow vortex]

i always pass the min requirments - i keep less then a 10 ms all day long and almost every speed test on this new ISP is 550mbps both ways . and my other ISP is 1200 down /40 up ( which is a hit n miss on the upload cause libsped sucks )

[pulsar arrow]

average salad user when they get a sensible reply that they have to wait:

[modern panther]

🤬

[safe loom]

maybe you're in a low supply job country like US but in aus it either starts immediately or an hour or so later

[hollow vortex]

the point of it is, you should connect regardless a job or not . WHY? so we know its working correctly. rather then guessing and making it frustrating . and protentionally stop people from wasting CS time

[safe loom]

you are supposed to connect to it, after passing all the metrics

[hollow vortex]

according to CS it will start when your connection is needed. unless that has changed

[safe loom]

when i pass the tests and start salad sgs starts immediately but i have to wait for jobs

[hollow vortex]

like cant get much lower ping connecting to a server over 1k miles away lol

So reading on faq of bw - higher speeds get jobs sooner then the slower speeds.

[upbeat shuttle]

in theory, yes, but there are also many other factors at play

[pulsar arrow]

time to get 10terrabit internet and be the first in the queue for jobs

[modern panther]

imagine not getting 10 petabyte internet

[slim lantern]

how come my upload speed is so slow but i can get 500bmps and getting 13mbps on the test

[upbeat shuttle]

^^ try this maybe

[slim lantern]

ok did this and now get 100 on upload. My rep on the ip is 89 but i did restart my router and have a different one but still 89.

would i still get traffic on this?

[upbeat shuttle]

you mean your IP is marked as suspicious by ipqualityscore?

[slim lantern]

yep

but its a new IP

[upbeat shuttle]

hm

could maybe try getting a different IP again?

[frigid reef]

at the end of the day my ip is also on 89, it dosent effect my chances of getting jobs

[slim lantern]

hmm i see how can i tell if i have a bandwidth job?

[frigid reef]

when you go into your bw sharing logs the latest BidirThroughput will be something other then 0

like this

[slim lantern]

ah still 0

[frigid reef]

yep, seems like you just started, give it a tiny bit

[final torrent]

for some reason bw logs isn't even appearing for me and I'm assuming that's the reason why sgs-client isn't appearing in task manager

[frigid reef]

no well bw sharing logs will only appear when sgs-client is run

as thats what generates the logs

[final torrent]

ah right. I just noticed in ndm logs, my upload rate was only 4mbps, lemme restart my pc to retest

uhh still around 5 mbps for upload rate

I'm not sure why its this low because my wifi is really good

[upbeat shuttle]

what speeds do you get with other sites, like speedtest.net or fast.com

[final torrent]

on speedtest.net

download- 52.94 mbps
upload- 18.63mbps

major difference for upload rate between speedtest and ndm logs

[upbeat shuttle]

could be because you restarted your PC to rerun the test
try quitting Salad, then closing saladbowl in task manager, then starting Salad again

[final torrent]

if I quit salad, wouldn't that automatically close saladbowl in taskmanager too?

oh it doesnt nvm

[final torrent]

did that. now the upload rate in ndm logs is 1.34Mbps😑

[upbeat shuttle]

pain

Salad was supposed to be fixing their speed test stuff weeks ago

[final torrent]

well looks like they haven't. and ig thats the cause why sgs-client isn't coming up in task manager

😑

[upbeat shuttle]

yeahh

[final torrent]

ig I wait den

[upbeat shuttle]

you could try reading through the other pinned posts just to make sure everything else is alright

[final torrent]

sure

[upbeat shuttle]

if nothing works still, you could contact #official-support and let them know that you have tried everything, but the librespeed speed test is still getting very low upload speeds compared to other speed test services

hopefully that'll remind them that they haven't fixed it yet

[pulsar arrow]

imagine more demand in the UK

[final torrent]

sure, 1 more thing, I tried the ipqualityscore thing and mine appeared to be very high

although im not sure why that's the case since my ip got reset literally by the internet providers

bru

[upbeat shuttle]

mmm

[final torrent]

idk how those because^^

[pulsar arrow]

does salad even take into account the IP fraud score

[upbeat shuttle]

yeah

[final torrent]

also it might not be the cause as Nova said he gets 89 and it doesnt effect his chances of getting jobs

[upbeat shuttle]

other things on that IP report matters too, like it being on any block lists

[frigid reef]

pretty sure they more take in account if you have been blocked or not from the streaming services that have requested by the customers

[pulsar arrow]

Never used Netflix before 🔥🔥

[final torrent]

I was blocked on a streaming app but then my internet provider reset my ip so I was unblocked

[pulsar arrow]

or any streaming companies

[final torrent]

oh shi- surely not Kayo (Australian Sport Streaming Service)

[upbeat shuttle]

hmm unrelated to the issue, but how easy was it for you to get your ISP to change your IP?

[pulsar arrow]

just plug in your neighbors broadband cable 🤷‍♂️

[final torrent]

pretty easy i'd say, I just contacted my internet provider and described them my issue, then they resetted my IP and told me to turn the router off and back on after 5 mins.

my issue was I got blocked from that streaming service

and it was a mistake from the streaming service and they weren't accepting it

[upbeat shuttle]

wdym they reset your pc..?

[final torrent]

fuck i meant IP

my baddd

[upbeat shuttle]

aha

hopefully it goes just as easily for me too

[frigid reef]

virgin media laughs haha fuck you

[upbeat shuttle]

I contacted my ISP yesterday asking them to change my IP because ipqualityscore thinks it's in Israel

[safe loom]

what isp?

[upbeat shuttle]

should've gotten chad media instead

[final torrent]

🗿 😂

best of luck lmao

[pulsar arrow]

virgin moment

[final torrent]

You wouldn't know, it's local

OH WAIT

UR IN THE SAME TIMEZONE AS ME I FORGOT SORRY

ISP is Mint telecom

[upbeat shuttle]

lol

[safe loom]

U?

[safe loom]

those guys were like "we're an independant ISP and Cell Provider with the cheapest plans on the market!" and then got bought by telstra or whatever last month :sk:

iiNet

[slim lantern]

anyone use talktalk here and can they change my IP as its blacklisted and rated 89

[safe loom]

350/40 but i get 650/40

good on them

im very sorry for my typo ozua

[upbeat shuttle]

lol

[slim lantern]

i have fibre and that says its sticky

[frigid reef]

funny, was kind of like how my college changed all the backgrounds on the pcs last month as pride month

[upbeat shuttle]

talktalk ran fibre for you?!

[final torrent]

My whole country changed it's theme to pride bro

[upbeat shuttle]

rare old monopoly ISP W

[slim lantern]

yep full fibre 500/500mbps

[safe loom]

rare talktalk W

[slim lantern]

both ways thats good just need new IP no idea how its blacklisted

[pulsar arrow]

talk talk runs on openreach

[slim lantern]

unless someone else did something on that ip

[final torrent]

What time would it be rn for most of the official support ppl?

[slim lantern]

Nope mine is cityfibre the infrastructure

[pulsar arrow]

or cityfibre, that would explainthe similar speeds

[slim lantern]

not adsl copper thats openreach

[frigid reef]

fastest they offer for me is 900mbps download and 110 upload

[pulsar arrow]

openreach is rolling out fibre

but it's not symmetric

[slim lantern]

i can get 1100/1100 on fibre for £35

[pulsar arrow]

same

[slim lantern]

as im on cityfibre

[pulsar arrow]

holy

yeah cityfibre was building in my area

[upbeat shuttle]

imagine not 2 gigabit symmetrical

[pulsar arrow]

even my pavement

but it's still assymterical

[frigid reef]

i will cut your internet lines

[safe loom]

W

[slim lantern]

got my cityfibre work done a year ago

[final torrent]

^

[upbeat shuttle]

i will cut your arteries

[hollow vortex]

I can get 1200 both ways for 70$ lol

[slim lantern]

gone from ADSL 12mbps down and 1mbps up to 550/550 both ways

very cheap and fast

[upbeat shuttle]

I remember back when I only got like 40 down

can't remember anything before that

[pulsar arrow]

I remember back when there was literally no broadband in my country

[slim lantern]

and 8ms ping to most things as my fibre runs to a building with a huge CDN for most things i use

[pulsar arrow]

only mobile data

[upbeat shuttle]

nicee

[slim lantern]

direct route and low latency 🙂

but my ip rating not so nice 😦

[pulsar arrow]

call up talktalk

[slim lantern]

i will but how does such ip get a bad rating and blacklisted?

[hollow vortex]

I run 6- to 16 msnon my fiber depending what I'm connecting too

[pulsar arrow]

"Ayo mista white my ip addresses sucks"

[pulsar arrow]

prob some rando on your isp did some goofy shit on that ip and it got assigned to you

[little saffron]

you in uk?

[pulsar arrow]

yes

[little saffron]

ah

bruh you earn all so big

all other contrys nothing

fr

[pulsar arrow]

Im not 💀

[little saffron]

thats shitty

[upbeat shuttle]

well I think you can contact ipqualityscore to ask them to reconsider your fate, but I contacted them last Friday and have yet to receive any response or change to my IP's country

[pulsar arrow]

mine sucks

[slim lantern]

try this ahaha 4ms to stackoverflow thats CDN in my datacentre

[little saffron]

wat you have 18 tb in your name

[pulsar arrow]

nevermind I take that back

but I don't think this will last long

[little saffron]

well salad defently need to split more over all countrys

[pulsar arrow]

I'm not earning good now

[upbeat shuttle]

18tb isn't that much, i think

I think I saw my last 30 day usage was like 16tb

[little saffron]

sheesh

[pulsar arrow]

I'd have over 30tb now if sgs ran on full speed

[little saffron]

i want share too but germaany really no demand

fr

when does salad split more traffic to the other countrys doe

??

[pulsar arrow]

did you have those jobs where your sgs usage goes up by a lot then falls instantly to 3-4mbits

or is it just me

[upbeat shuttle]

no idea

[pulsar arrow]

mines acting that way

terrible earnings since then

[upbeat shuttle]

i don't really monitor it, as long as it's earning then it's fine

[pulsar arrow]

I'm gonna try and switch WiFi cards

from one laptop to the other

[upbeat shuttle]

wait you're doing it wirelessly?

[pulsar arrow]

yes

my laptop doesn't have an ethernet port and my table is too far away from my router

[little saffron]

i have 500 mbit download and 100 upload

bruh

[pulsar arrow]

I have WiFi 6 so it shouldn't be bad

but WiFi 5 on the VM router

[blissful moon]

I got a javascript problem not sure why

[upbeat shuttle]

I'd personally get a cheap lil £5-10 usb ethernet adapter

[upbeat shuttle]

?

[blissful moon]

Yeah there is this weird javascript error thing and the salad will stop earning anything and will show incompatible hardware

[pulsar arrow]

I'd do it but I need my laptop on the table since that's where all my shit is

[upbeat shuttle]

ah then it'd just be using wifi 5, as both ends of the connection needs to be on wifi 6 for it to actually work heh

[pulsar arrow]

it worked flawlessly before tho

even two floors away

it got above 200mbit

with 20ms latency

[upbeat shuttle]

what version of Salad are you on? you can check by clicking on your avatar, then heading to Settings, then scrolling to the bottom

[blissful moon]

Ok i will check when i got back home

Im outside now

[upbeat shuttle]

if you're on anything older than v1.1.0, update to the latest version at https://salad.com/download
this is a known bug with Salad's auto updater in older versions of the app

[upbeat shuttle]

eugh nevermind, they just said that they can't change my IP

[safe loom]

L?

[upbeat shuttle]

even though they absolutely can

there's a senior chef chat?!!?

one more reason to nolife mee6 xp

[upbeat shuttle]

anyone know any sites that use ipqualityscore, other than Salad? because I don't think they'll like it if I said I'm using some bandwidth sharing app, especially on a home internet plan, rather than a business internet plan

[frigid reef]

have you tried amazon

[upbeat shuttle]

amazon works fine

[frigid reef]

what about microsoft

uber

coinbase

bank of America

[safe loom]

REDDIT

reddit uses ip quality

90% sure

cause they banned me when my score dropped from 100 to 87

then i got it sorted out with iinet

back to 100

unbanned

same with rockstar

[upbeat shuttle]

I'll look into all those in a bit

[safe loom]

just gaslight your isp

threaten to swap plans :omegalul:

[upbeat shuttle]

not too bad of an idea

since I'm still within the 2 week period or whatever

[upbeat shuttle]

microsoft, uber, reddit, rockstar all redirect / show signs of knowing I'm in the UK

no idea about bank of america, coinbase

[hollow vortex]

Yeah think my fiber is static , and to change it would be a hassle on my end. Thankfully my score is "low"

[upbeat shuttle]

on god ipqualityscore is actual shite

they just set my fraud score to 89 for no reason

[hollow vortex]

Lol tf

[upbeat shuttle]

just a couple of minutes ago it was 0

i don't know why salad uses it

[hollow vortex]

Check for blacklist , then contact them saying you just got the IP to have you removed . Providing proof of new internet .

Should clean up that IP untill u do funky shit

[upbeat shuttle]

I've already sent them a false positive report last Friday

and they supposedly reply within 1-2 hours

[idle wing]

they should trash librespeed along with it

[upbeat shuttle]

yep

[frigid reef]

never said reply

[upbeat shuttle]

i want to commit acts of arson

(in a videogame)

[frigid reef]

legally in 1 state in the usa saying in a videogame dosent make it legal

[safe loom]

based

[upbeat shuttle]

sent off a response to my ISP since ipqualityscore seems to have a bias against me now

if this fails then I'll ask ericka if anything can be done, like maybe not using a scummy service like ipqs for ip quality checking

[slim lantern]

ok after speaking with talktalk they said they could re assign me a new IP on their end as i had already had my internet out for 1 hour and no new IP. My new IP has a score of 28 coming from 89 on my last IP nothing is being blocked and should get max earnings now

[safe loom]

while you're at it tell ericka if she doesnt make the bandwidth team not use librespeed im gonna sue the company :omegaLUL:

[frigid reef]

make sure to say its not cyph

as then they will take it seriously

[safe loom]

i have money

ill sue salad

whats their legal team gonna do

[safe loom]

gon act a fool and do as much as the devs do

[pulsar arrow]

Better Call Saul

[upbeat shuttle]

an actually useful update

[safe loom]

turn it off during the night then ig?

[upbeat shuttle]

sacrificing my GPU container isn't ideal

I'll see if ericka has any ideas

[hollow vortex]

Or pay for a static IP. Pick your battle

[upbeat shuttle]

I've contacted IPQS again, they're probably my last reasonable hope left

[safe loom]

just sacrifice a job big dog

[upbeat shuttle]

no

[hollow vortex]

That 5$ isn't ganna hurt ya .

[hollow vortex]

Besides u have the other ISP to hold u over.

[safe loom]

im 90% sure they'd get the job back afterwards anyway

fresh asa daisy

which gateway is daisy

[frigid reef]

its hosted in Sweden

so one of those places near there

so denmark, norway or sweeden

no one from there wants to give me what gateway they use so i cant narrow it down

[safe loom]

[pulsar arrow]

why is this going down to 7-13mbps every 2 seconds

then sometimes jumping to 42

this is so annoying

literally dog earnings ever since this behavior started

[frigid reef]

could just be how the traffic is that is being sent through your internet

at the end of the day task manger isnt the best place to look at for this kind of usage

what does it look like on something like glasswire

[pulsar arrow]

this is the 5 minute chart on glasswire

[gleaming shell]

my sgs ded

[pulsar arrow]

glasswire shows the same thing

[gleaming shell]

waiting for it to download again

[pulsar arrow]

jumps to 5MB/S

then goes down to 300KB

[frigid reef]

hmm, yeah could just be your getting lots of low jobs

[pulsar arrow]

yeah thought so too

but never have i gotten a high paying job this whole week

[frigid reef]

btw is this thing all the way on each side

as im used to looking at the graph like that

[pulsar arrow]

its that

yes

[frigid reef]

hmm yeah, thats my only explanation, other then that i got no idea

[pulsar arrow]

contacted support bout this and havent gotten a reply

also about a week ago

[foggy mica]

Damn

99/100

At risk

[upbeat shuttle]

i don't really like ipqualityscore

their scores and whatnot are based on nothing

[white knot]

avg. jp bw be like (i guess):

like who would believe dat such small amount of traffic could earn u like around 70cents per day

u will get a spike here every 5mins which i think its about the paid off

by taking a closer look on those tiny traffic with a microscope

[pulsar arrow]

ig you have static earnings

[white knot]

yes

but quite a nerfed aus bw earnings

[pulsar arrow]

your ip is exposed

[white knot]

imagine using vpn

[foggy mica]

?

Ohhh

i wish i could live there sooner tho

[hollow vortex]

shocked - had to wait all day - reboot sgs popped on again.

[pulsar arrow]

bandwidth is stupidly shit

it's definitely not my WiFi card issue as I've suspected

changed it out and it's still awful

like how short are these goddamn jobs

I don't get why they end so quick

[gleaming shell]

I'm waiting for sgs to download here, I regret reinstalling salad

[pulsar arrow]

rip

[gleaming shell]

Sgs gone
Xmrig files gone

[pulsar arrow]

xmring too?

[gleaming shell]

Yep

[pulsar arrow]

reinstall again

if your running CPU

xmring is discontinued

so makes sense

if you enable GPU it should download some sort of crypto miner

[hollow vortex]

I think the job " is a long as the client is connected and your set to there job - so if they are just using it here n there it will be spikes - as if they are streaming or doing some heavy uploading /downloading it will be a nice flow

[pulsar arrow]

well it doesn't make sense how I've gotten the same client like every single time I've restarted lol

other people are getting continuous iobs

[gleaming shell]

Me when discord

[hollow vortex]

is it the same " job " listed every workload for sgs? have you compared?

[pulsar arrow]

I mean as in like

spikes of Bandwidth

it's the same thing over and over again

[hollow vortex]

so they prolly just using it for facebook or some shit .

[pulsar arrow]

it likes spikes for maybe 10minutes

then no activity for like an hour

then maybe the next

[pulsar arrow]

that's BS how I got chosen for that job alone lol

we need multiple jobs at once then

[hollow vortex]

i get what your saying - could be emailing, facebook social meidea messages etc.

[pulsar arrow]

yeah could be

[hollow vortex]

remember it could be a bunch of ppl from one company i believe not 1 person :

[pulsar arrow]

your right but this is making me think it's not worth it

the time

[hollow vortex]

I know spoke to erika about that its not possible lol. it is what it is.

[pulsar arrow]

80c a day while I used to get over 3 all these months ago

I'm grateful for it but yeha

I thought it'd atleast pay for my internet bill and some others

[hollow vortex]

the only thing i can say is the longer you stay connected to sgs you'll get a job , if they finish disconnect from you - you'll get the next job - as to " not having sgs running " you wont get it cause you are already connected to SGS n waiting for that job

[pulsar arrow]

right

[hollow vortex]

I did read that higher Bandwidth get first dibs but other factors in it. So if i was in ur country considering im 600/600 and etc if ran salad the exact same amount of time and etc chances id get it cause of my speed

[pulsar arrow]

oh is that so

I'm getting an upgrade soon

so I'll see

[hollow vortex]

meaning same trust score , ran the same amount of chopping time exact same stats expect our net speed .

[pulsar arrow]

Yeah

hopefully this stupid WiFi card would be able to handle all the extra bandwidth lol

[hollow vortex]

so speed does matter to an extent of trust score and uptime and all that. " reliability " for jobs

[pulsar arrow]

it's WiFi 6 so I assume it's got atleast 600mbjt of throughput I. jt

in it

[hollow vortex]

idk my wifi like caps out at like 400 mbs , but i use ethernet - new router is wifi 6 but i dont have an updated wifi card in my laptop LOl

[pulsar arrow]

I hate that WiFi 6e needs windows 11

Microsoft being stubborn again

[hollow vortex]

lol i use win 11 , i like it better then 10.

[pulsar arrow]

I'm quite the opposite

hate the Ui

[subtle condor]

what the hell is going on with bandwidth sharing lately ??

[hollow vortex]

lol. im hoping my new router dont crap out on me like last time i had sgs running decent. i want to see if i can get a good paying bw job in a few days.

[hollow vortex]

lack of jobs.

[pulsar arrow]

same

but a little better

[subtle condor]

also the logs keep saying "cannot receive data"

[pulsar arrow]

that must be your internet dropping somewhere

[hollow vortex]

that is an error you should be reporting your log to salad offical

[pulsar arrow]

like sudden drops and all

[subtle condor]

does that mean that there are no more jobs available or something

[pulsar arrow]

or salad issue

[pulsar arrow]

not necessarily

I don't have that error

[subtle condor]

other people have experienced it too in the UK

[hollow vortex]

report it .

[pulsar arrow]

strange
