"imagine" hehe
i could never
"ImAgInE"
What's your last 24 hrs?
in the starting gap exists cuz i didn't run salad during that time
My uptime is 8 days uninterrupted, I’ve had no speed tests.
exactly, it won't initiate a new test unless saladbowl has a restart
We've got proof?
Aight 👍
Well it does not log in ndm
It does test.
Lemme share you the proof rq
Clearly stated in Salad Blog
It’s on a machine that runs 24/7 with some other services on a dedicated 1gbps connection
Noice
30 days
me too xd and i wouldnt be an user
and btw trustscore too exists.. dont trust the staff
this is the new thing added?
That says infrequently using 5MB to test latency and quality. It does not mention a speed test. what speed test you running using 5MB😂😂
To me that sounds like they’ll run the latency/quality test using the stated 5MB to test your connection is still ok to use,
I read this before the update
idk
@harsh badge Me wrong?
I can download at 125megabytes per second. That test at 5MB would take a fraction of a second
more accurate ping test maybe? xd
Ye
I’ve never seen a speed test outwith my initial. I could be wrong of course but I do monitor network traffic,
no its not speedtest, its ping test
Yeah I thought that. That’s nothing though, my ping to salad servers are 4ms 😂
me 2-3
:/ me with 13ms
but italy traffic sucks so doesnt change much
wha
@naive lava
that's rlly good
Whats urs
i barely get below 100 ms
My trustscores like negative for sure
India
aah
not getting bw for like 1 week now
We’re not on about the NDM log file. Go to your processes, check the gateway your connected to’s. IP and ping that. Not those crappy libre servers
Germany :/
accha
brazil has sgs? from when
how do i do tht tho
oo dayum
cheeky stuff
what should i do if i am not connected to sgs LOL
Task manager>open resource monitor>network>look for SGS-client.exe>IP address then ping it
Eh no clue, i get SGS the second I begin to chop 😂😂
uk moment..
italy gets sgs very hardly
Trustscore was active in dec 2022
lucky mate
ah 5-6
I bet if i get sgs now I wont let it go.. maybe tie to my monitor or smth
wait where the hell did u get this
Internal Stuff hehe
not in blogs tho
@naive lava
If you share ur sgs I will let u know
Deal?
no
:/
i thought it was in Tb/s
took u very long
169.150.222.196
the india sgs ip
170 from italy
i get like 120 in italy
you're from italy what
230 from the uk for me
i get like 130 for uk
Hopefully be better when the 8GBPS gets installed on Wednesday 😊
are you even going to pay?
with salad?
u barely make 2 to 8 bucks day
still 7k
you
I run many different things…families plex servers myst, some websites etc and have 3 1gb lines atm so will keep 1gb and then get the 8gb👍🏻
would be funny
All their connections are symmetrical using XGS-PON in the uk you must advertise actual user seen speeds and “minimum guarantee speeds” , so they underestimate it to remain within the margin of error. My 1gb says 900 but I get 950 all day, that’s why you don’t get any gigabit services in the uk, just 900meg, unless it goes over or virgin does 1.1gb up then 50 up with it 😂😂
i usually get a bit above, i get minumum 600, and get 640. But then upload speed 46...
which is not even half.... so... :(
virginmedia fuckin sucks
their gig1 plan is 52mbit upload
Yeah it’s crap… it makes no sense. I had their “fibre” and it’s fibre up until the box then coax… why??? Oh so they can sell telly 😂😊
cityfibre laid cables last month for zen, who do actually have symmetrical proper gigabit speeds
Yeah i get fibre to my door then coax up my wall
Even BT is better with 110 up but they’re releasing symmetric soon, or supposedly,
my friend has zen, they got 600 both ways, and it's fibre into the box (well, a little adapter to cat-6 which can handle more than gigabit soo)
wtf where did you read that lmao
Yeah fibre>ONT>router
It’s in trials currently,
They still haven't figured out what they're gonna do with elderly people who don't wanna get rid of landlines
think those are for businesses and not consumers atm
Man I want to t93hr92h94h2 oh 2u503y4o49r oh 9r ok ru0rh4
Yes for the moment but switching from G-PON to XGS-PON will eventually mean roll out. Not that it bothers me, I get great speeds 😂
SGS client only starts when you get a bw job
usually it starts up right away
all the time i've been using it it's been this way
only now is it snagging
Well usually it starts up to do the speedtest then stops, unless you get a job.
What country are you in?
UK
i am well aware
librespeed-cli does the speed test, not sgs-client though
different thing
Hmm, same... I haven't had salad running much over the last few days. Are you earning much?
no not really
this was just static pay
until i rebooted my pc
and now it won't start
Hmm.
Don't really know what to do, sorry. Maybe wait for someone else to come online. Prateek is usually helpful but it's about 3am over there now.
oh you seem to have a point, this time it was salad doing this
maybe it is testing something
lots of tests
wait this is the container
It does a download then upload speed test on their shitty speed-test server. You need to have at least 10mbps (on the shitty server) both ways to be eligible for bandwidth. You can see the results in the latest ndm log. Go to the salad app, then click the circle, show logs, open the ndm folder, find the latest one, open it.
this is different
this is usage from a container
I'd guess the diagnostics job, but it could also be an actual job
it's firing right up on my laptop
running salad 1.1.9
doing its thing
might just downgrade tbf
1.2.4 has been causing issues
I'm still on 1.2.3 since I've got a nice container job
probably still on like 1.1.9 on my laptops
i am annoyed with myself
i voluntarily updated to 1.2.4 while i had a low paying container job
because in the release notes it said it'd ensure there is a more stable connection to the server i thought sgs-client.exe would stop dropping dead like a fly
but it doesn't seem to have changed a thing other than cause vmmem to run constantly and always use 1gb of ram even when a workload is not running

I'm pretty sure the oldest version that's actually usable still is 1.1.6
the latest one i have downloaded

just been using the auto updater
should stop doing that
i like archiving old salad versions, makes it easier to roll back if you need
can you buss me 1.2.3 fam
safe
:)
oh shit didn't realise they had everything on github
i have my main mc, my old laptop and my server
so it's actually worthwhile to download it once, upload that to my NAS, then download it from there from each PC
my main pc and laptop run my main account and my server runs my friend's account


man
if i was still in school i could bandwidth share with their gigabit connection
where is year 14 i want it
likely wouldn't work anyways lol
which by the way is classified as a residential connection for some reason despite the ISP being RM
homeschooling
no i finished school
tryna get a job rn
it workey on laptop
but no workey on desktop
i find it amusing how installing salad refreshes loads of drivers
so my logitech mouse thing pops up as does my rdp banner
I didn't get a job from 8 hours 😕
Hopefully I get it today
Uk was good and now died
I fully reinstalled salad 1.1.9 and it is working again
Pales in comparison to last month… sad times
hold on let me integrate this graph to figure out how much you earned today since salad doesn't show it on the website anymore

Is the sgs client meant to not be using any rescores in task manger at all like 0 mbps 0% gpu and cpu and less then 10mb of ram?
or is it just that task manger dose not show its usage at all
Sounds about right, if you're receiving no jobs atm
so just wait |:
Yep
WHAT another update?
no ok is old update
Can SGS not run when the next 24hr calculation is shows and visa versa? As the other is never working when the other is. I have CPU/GPU and BW enabled
No, sgs can start even if you have a next 24 hour displayed. As soon as it starts running, the next 24 hours will load indefinitely.
Ok so SGS stops is from showing GPU predictive earnings.
Do you know if that's a bug or just a feature?
Hasn't been specified but I believe an issue
hmmm ok thanks. Sure wish i had asked that last night. I've spent way more time restarting my rig to try get both working 
Github
salad automatically downloads the new update if you downgrade and bw doesnt work on older versions so its honestly useless
wow
damn
False I got it to work on 1.1.9 I installed this morning
to you works then , me no
they force me to update
my salad updates itself automatically... but not in a way that it starts automatic, nono it stays stuck on "installation complete!" and you need to click the finish button
this is why i was trying to search a way to block the download of updates
hm that's definitely not normal
but it happens, always
hpw do i block the download?
have you contacted #official-support about it yet?
no
in the next update if this happens i will send a photo
and @ you
oki
I have no way of turning BW off
it should be in resource preferences
wait nvm?
idk i haven't updated so idk the new ui
ahh ok
i think if you choose to configure the workload types manually, that's where you disable it?
So unticking them i guess
but then also
kinda maybe not
at the same time o.O
Actually, thinking about it, It really doesn't matter anyway, as i've just gonna do a fresh install of my OS. So can just change it the normal one on initiation of the installation.
Thanks though 
I need to enable cpu mining to get a container job?
Also, being from Brasil, i have lower chances of getting a container job or it doesn't efect?
thanks
woah
most profitable day ever for an italian bw user
I unfortunately can't tell since I don't want to add up each individual bar
LOL
If i was to turn salad BW on and then logged out, salad would stop right?
i saw only italians complaining here and also talking with them in dms
@civic fern summoning
gay
sgs went f0rjorh30tb3r3o on
also dead flatlined (I live in the us)
decreased, but left me in surprise today
deceased
you shared me i thought i typed wrong
shitty windows host prcoess (my precious job)
woah its doing something
mine is kinda dead now
Chugging along today!
showed me the middle finger...
mine flatlined
days ago
no middle finger here lo
a
unreal
leon did it
on which server yall get bw in the US? It's so hard to get bw here in east coast
it's the Norwegians
its a sign
sign of leon
len
my pc rebooted overnight and i lost the sgs..
Why don’t you have that disabled? 😂
i disabled windows updates everywher but my pc still updates itself
i dont know what else to do
now sgs is not starting
I have windows 10 pro on the machine so was able to permanent disable it via group policy editor.
i did it, i did 3 things to disable them
still nothing
what else? block win updates domain via pihole?
If you disable it via win+r>services.msc>windows update it will eventually turn back on… have you tried from the registry editor?
Win+r>regedit>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\ look for “no auto update” and change the value to 1
I disabled it from even downloading shit without me hitting the button

Su...
That’s the 2 steps i just said, worked for me.
lets try this aswell
after all of this, the sgs still didnt came back
Sucks waiting
welcome back sgs
hows this app called i forgot
glasswire
oh you're italian! xd
look dm
u too?
si
how do i check how much internet is being consumed by bandwidth sharing
Go to open network and sharing center in windows and click on data usage there will be sga client.exeband your usage will be shown there
its not there
I mean right click on your wifi icon and click on open network and internet settings
.
install glasswire and look the traffic being consumed by sgs-client.exe
?
I mean is it available for windows
Or only mac
But why to install this when u have inbuilt windows feature
you cant check the daily usage only monthly
Yes
you can use both combined , why not
Is there any other benefits of using it
you see the graph
.
Yes
and daily usage
Ok
where do i find this
you installed glasswire?
ye
what happened to earnings being 0.15 😭 now i get like 0.6 at most
https://upload.kannadev.com/u/firefox_Hlx3bXv0AH.png
good things never last forever
yeah
Mine still going above.
Uk dead huh
still probably the best earning country though 
🇮🇹 not much high
yo guys any tips for earning through bandwidth (like turning this or that setting on)
There's not really much, other than making sure that you meet these minimum requirements ^^
You could try to reduce your bandwidth usage on other apps, like pausing or limiting steam download speeds, or lowering the video resolution in YouTube
huh weird, i dont have any 'sgs-client' working in task manager
but the app says bandwidth sharing is enabled
whats going on
sgs client will only run when you're actually chosen to receive bandwidth sharing jobs
and no one has choosen me in like 3-4 hours !
talk about bad luck
What’s your speed and latency? They also affect eligibility.
about 300mbps and 60-80ping
what country?
India
^^

Upload? If so then that’s ok, you’ll just have to wait
that could be the problem, upload's 15mbps
Anything over 10mbps makes you eligible
it seems to be fluctualting between 8mbps to 15💀
so silly when you can just download it from github. wasted time
I'd rather not hog up my 450-500mbps limit, which could interfere with bandwidth sharing
plus my NAS has 2.5G
how can i get a bw job?
Have bandwidth sharing enabled, meet the minimum requirements (^^), and wait
i got the requirements
but i have 147ms ping
@upbeat shuttle
hello?
man this server ded
I probably didn't word that part right.. We don't know for sure if ping is actually a requirement
ahh ok
It's just inferred from Salad's advertising/promotion of SGS to their customers, saying the average latency is below 100ms
why do my predicted earnings drop or increastr by 10 cents?
ah that's just normal for container jobs, for some reason
ok
you acting like it takes so long to download 1 gig . I just really find that a lot of wasted time in a day to do that.
idk how you survive , having to watch what you do with your internet
cause you dont want to take a few seconds of BW from salad. so silly
i dont think salad uses 500mbit of up and down at the same time
so you can usually just throttle your downloads to use like 300mbit
it will add a bit of latency to your sgs traffic
but eh
who cares
Nah ping is for sure a requirement. I bought a 5g broadband router just for salad but it never gets sgs. Sadge.
It won’t be a residential connection so will not be eligible to receive bandwidth jobs. It’s also behind a CGANT…
Latency isn't the sole factor you're changing with that...
There's likely something up with its IP address
oh good to know ig. I'm not an IT guy so I have no idea what a CGANT is lol
afaik residential connections get assigned 255 IP addresses. thats the extent of my knowledge.
uh could you clarify what you mean by that? Like static/DHCP kinda deal?
^^ It could be that your IP address is just marked as non-residential, or IPQS thinks it's fraudulent
It could also be what Iruhaku mentioned
CGNAT is carrier grade NAT, it’s like your home router but to help with IPV4 limitations. ie your assigned an outside ip but it’s like 103.x.x.x:120 the 120 identifies who you are so packets can be forwarded to you. Just like when you’re connected to your home router on 192.168.1.0 etc, it’s becoming a lot more common now a days,
ipquality score?
yeah
Uh I'm UK based so I should be supported. up/dwon is 270ish/30-70. Ping hovers around high 50s to maybe 100
Wow how is your ping so high?
man i know you did you best explaining what that is but this just looks like techno babble. lol. I'll look into it though seems interesting i guess
😂😂😂 yeah it’s a bit dry
I win! 😂
Does this look decent? Ik ive heard about the london server being good. DId i get the right one?
They don’t use SpeedTest, go to librespeed.org and test to London.
Um is it bad if it says my IP followed with "-Unknown IP"? I just have my laptop connected directly to a 5g router with a vodafone sim
Nah that’s ok, it says it with me on and off, must be some sort of glitch.
That just happens when the librespeed server you use can't figure out your ISP for whatever reason. Salad doesn't require it
No that’s not true, 255 is subnet used for different things. Residential IP’s can be any IP’s. Ie my ISP is really new (under 3 Y/O), when they first started they had a major issue because all the IP’s they bought were from the us so they’re customers were being geolocated there which meant you couldn’t load local content. They’ve since fixed it but it’s just a case of the ISP registering with themselves and stating connection type.
Registering the IP with themselves, location and type*
ARIN (American registry for internet numbers) RIPE APNIC etc record IP transfers, routing tables, etc etc.
Wait afaik each device in the network gets assigned a local IP controlled by the DHCP server on the router. Am i understanding it correctly?
and that teh router is then set by the ISP? right...? bruh networking is so confusing
Most IP’s are assigned using DHCP via the ISP yes. Which can be static, dynamic or CGNAT, soon hopefully we’ll all be chilling with /24 IPV6 addresses
ipv6 is the new one yes? cos the boomers didn't think that ipv4 would run out?
Yeah, we’ll only ever need so many of these…. 😂😂
If you know any free courses on these kinda things lemme know man it seems interesting.
I had tried to learn networking back in highschool but found it too difficult and gave up lol
plus no money to buy equipment
No clue about free 😂 getting in tons of debt at uni to learn it.
yoooo you in uni too?
Yeah electronic and electrical engineering
you UK based man?
Yeah Scotland.
ahh nice. I'm in Manchester.
My family is all from their, dads side is anyways.
UK unis are whacko istg. Lectureres go on strike like its a game of bowling
Yeah and damn Covid
Online learning BS
nice. how you finding it lol?
a lot better now we’re back in it 😂
Yeah its even worst for me cos im an intl student and they're having me pay 25k/year for ONLINE COURSES.😭
negative ROI
Yeah I kinda have beef with the UK gov now. What makes it worst is that they boast about intl students funding the country. Its like pouring salt into a gaping wound.
sadgetastic
Yeah that’s pretty crap, a few in my year that are in the same boat.
yeah. hopefully salad can make up for the cost lol.
sgs doesnt use ports specific , so being behind a cgnat shouldnt matter.
infact im behind a cgnat and i get sgs. just to prove a point.
💀
all i've ran is salad
yikes
it went up by 6 after i sent a report
💀
its now 89
LOL
when im signed in it says its clean
but when i look it up while signed out it says its high risk
LOL
what a shit company
wait
read the blue box
Fraud Scoring is based on our basic blacklists. Signup for a premium account to view the true fraud score and access advanced data sets including residential proxy blacklists, botnets, and private VPNs.
💀
you have to pay them to see what it actually is
reboot the modem to change ip
no
thats not how it works on cable
im given a set ip with a set bandwidth threshold
i can't change them
i get sgs fine though
and its the only thing that would false flag me as fraudelent
anever been blocked from anything so maybe ipqs is ctually just full of shit
oh ok so it basically means nothing unless if you sign up then
i might just remove ipqs from my pinned post then
brother i used to get 0.06 and now i get at most 0.038
even when my bandwidth is saturated
the $/gb went down
in the time i used salad
is there supposed to be something about the sgs client here?
it's also not in _downloads
Yes if you get selected your pc will download the folder and you’ll see something like the picture.
Depends on your location?
Can anyone tell me why my sgs-client is crashing, and why does it start working again exactly 2 days after the crash? This is not a coincidence, it has happened to me multiple times. I might have proof because I used to take screenshots when it crashed and when it started working again.
Have you checked the logs? something should be mentioned there?
3 sep, 2023
5 sep, 2023
see the time, crashed on 8:40 am, and got again after 2 days after 8:40 am
I don't know how to check main logs, but if you're saying about bandwidth log there is nothing mentioned, it just randomaly stopped
this are bandwidth logs
logs for 14th september where sgs suddenly disappeared, if you find anything let me know
I don't have logs older than this because I reinstalled salad, but I got screenshot, which I have sent above
@upbeat shuttle do you know anything about this? sorry for the ping
I'm not on my PC atm, I might check it out later though
ok thanks :D
it crashed again, is there any issue from my side? :<
@upbeat shuttle you on pc?
@weak river where?
read from here @shrewd terrace
Hola, yes as a technician I confirm there is a problem
u will have to call an plumber to fix ir
💀
I want female version of him 💀
uhh idk
Can I make a statement
yup
Is there a female version of him? 💀
@neon blade
hi
hello
well i dont think we can help you with this
so whom should I ask for help?
i would say its a coincidence but you can contact #official-support and see what they say
because official support is not replying
.
yes
hm
Have you tried fully uninstalling and deleting all data then reinstalling?
Of Salad?
It doesn’t seem to have for me?
$4.89 in the last 24 hours, around 440gb uploaded in the last 24 hours so about 1c per Gb of egress data. Or there about a
yes I did
Sheesh
That’s disappointing, I wonder what the issue is.
yea, I have emailed the official support, so I just have to wait for their reply, no one here is able to help either :<
Yeah there’s no real members of the support team on this.
@upbeat shuttle sorry this is my last ping, if you can convey my message to lead mod or whatever, I would appreciate it :>
💪
?
No a very good flex there 😂😂
It is compared to what I've been getting this past week
I would show you but salad made the 7 day graph absolutely stupid
yeahh it makes it much more difficult for me to tell how good my earnings are
Salad is changing things that didn't need to be changed
eventually they're just going to remove the salad app because of oversimplification 
I wish salad kept the old UI for the earning summary page
And just removed maybe XP and the vegetable things at the bottom
Stuff that isn't used anymore
I hope they take action on the feedback that many of us have given, and not just ignore us and hope it'll go away
those were still cool
How good have they been with community feedback?
lol
I liked them yeah
it's like asking for the alpha testers role colour to be changed
or posting at #salad-feedback-old
Aww that’s crap then…
it's still 'free' money so who cares

'8KB/s'
got tricked to sign up because of that 💀
whatever you do DON'T make a second IPQS account
it utterly destroys your fraud score for weeks
yeah i made 1 account
and it thinks ive made 5
the company doesn't detect shit 💀
gotta love CDN connections bless em 
🥺
@frigid reefyo
if i get 1gb/s data speed plan
will it boost my chance to get a BW job?
@neon blade
It would theoretically maybe make you get jobs faster and salad will be able to use more data.
fr?
Without a doubt!
The promised land of BW sharing 
good stuff, US here and looks like your post rubbed some of that demand for me lmao
but those spikes never last long where I'm at unfortunately
literally just caught it
and it's gone x)
I have not seen it like this in months
in Resource Preferences, set the bandwidth preference to 'Maximise earnings'
or in the new UI I think you choose the workloads manually, then enable bandwidth sharing
jp bw update: (31.5gb today)
i do MB's/day
nah bruh sgs client doesnt even show up anymore
before it showed up instantly, as i turned it on
not always are u gonna get sgs client immediately
i did normally
"not always"
we li we lo we lia tututuuuuutuuuutuuuutuuuuutuuu
weli welo wli dududududuududududududuuuu
what
im wondering 
its at 100 anyways, so even if the "is this moni" is true, no real effect would be there since it's already at 100
logic at its best
cashapp glitch
is 80gb per 24 hours good or bad
good
Depends on your location and upload speed, for me it’s low, for others high,
i dont even get that monthly
i think my 1.6mb is very good
i have uploaded 300gb in the last 24 hours
I’m uploading at about 230mbps right now.
That’s much bette than what you were getting isn’t it?
oof
I wish I hit the peaks of 6 weeks ago! 😂 390mbps up
might get gigashit™️ though
full duplex gigabit fibre to the premises

shut yourself
i am going to shit yourself
Glassware has a nice UI but it’s a bit resource hungry
that was not referring to glasswire
Oh I know, just what I’ve experienced, only seems to be around the 500-600+meg mark has some cpu spikes doesn’t happen when GW not running
my internet is extremely slow now but when i run a speed test it shows my full speed
My mines using 54mb
i see that
Really booming tonight, virgin max 50mbps upload is pants
you may not 😠
yeah demand has dropped for me too
7gb to 1tb
man wouldn't it have been really nice of openreach to have symmetrical connections
They will eventually, they have a very clever business model. Fleeced the government for ADSL2 implementation, fleeced them for that stop gap known as “FTTC”, now fleecing them for an inferior FTTP product then they’ll fleece them some more for XGS-PON. Very cleaver IMO.
Meanwhile, city fibre, you fibre, rural north, and many others offer symmetric for cheaper. The uk has a weird market 😂
10mbps min 20mbps max
Well let’s say you have 15mbps then. 15mbps*24hours=162GB and 80GB over 24hrs=7.4mbps so nearly 50% utilisation isn’t bad.
if you have 15mbps you shouldn't really use salad imo (i want more jobs)
lmao
nvm its like 62gb i got 80 from the last 3 hours being 9.8gb
damn my earnings went from 8 cents all day to static pay
no log errors
also the log files look different
wifi 
it's says 5g (
if mobile data)
too far from router 
(by too far i mean 3 meters and i dont have 3 meter ethernet cable and i dont want to use my salad balance to pay for it)
5ghz
It's an old WiFi name and we haven't changed it
We don't even have a 2.4ghz option
I'm not too far from my router but I'd have to route the cable through my room and icba
250mbs up/down is alright for WiFi
we used 5g before it was cool 
I just despair over the latency and higher potential for packet loss
ik wifi has more error correction and whatever, but it's higher than hard wired
oh nice
And I have only experienced packet loss when I max out my WiFi speeds
yep not sure if its just my wifi card, but it drops occasionally
i might use my shit pentium laptop for bandwidth sharing
but its old tho so the wifi adapter might be a bottleneck
use salad to upgrade salad its exponential incom
It’ll be a combined 2.4/5G signal: mist routers do that now… although I don’t like it and split the signals with their own SSID’s

my bt router no longer has that feature
I had to do the same because my quest liked hopping on 2.4ghz, so oculus link didn't have enough bandwidth
I would really love it if I got a good 2.4ghz signal up in my bedroom rather than a crappy 5ghz than my phone keeps clinging onto
It does, just go and turn off 5ghz, it disables it though and it’s only for backwards compatibility as somethings can’t connect to the joined signal. Or you could on my home hub, latest gen,
i don't wanna turn off 5ghz lol
Well yeah but incase 😂😂 I had to turn it off when I was with BT to get my smart plugs to connect.
I need it when I'm downstairs downloading big shit or even streaming from my TV
streaming as in uncompressed 4k content from my laptop not Netflix
Buy your own router, problem solved 😊
just get an AP or just another router ;)
I will, but currently I ain't annoyed enough by it
my place is rented and I can't add holes for an ethernet cable to go through the walls because doors and stairways
Netgear d7000 are pretty decent, if not the best now but you can get em for like £10-£20 on marketplace
My house is new and had all these ducts and stuff for aerials etc so was easy to run Ethernet.
oh so you just use wifi on your pc?
I got a spare laptop for bw that sits right next to the router and it's hooked up via ethernet
it's also my media center
i just mean your main pc
Same setup as me then 😂😂😂
naw that looks just like mine 😂
15 meter CAT 6 cable from ONT to router, cat 6 from router to laptop and one to my switch, 😊
I tried plugging in the fiber modem directly to my laptop for the funnies, but they wouldn't work
well duh
Ah yeah you’d need to set the laptop us as a router with some form of DHCP etc.
Seen a few home made routers.
Yeah it’s not too difficult you just install “pfSense” , set up isn’t too complicated.
Any tips man? I can't seem to get sgs on my 5g router
holy moly 2015 user
I know it shouldn’t , it shouldn’t because salad establishes the connection from the host PC which has already been started by the user so NAT should be irrelevant. However my brother (Youfibre, 1gb up and down exact same as me prior to 8gig upgrade but he didn’t pay for the IP’s) achieved far less earnings than I. Very similar set ups, infact his laptop is more powerful with a GPU etc,
There's likely many more factors that's at play that we don't know of just yet
though they likely fall into the realm of being against Salad's TOS due to how much reverse engineering would likely be needed to figure it out
tldr curiosity will kill the cat
@summer hound
fair
ipqs sucks
I figured it may be CGNAT in the way that say 100 users are assigned that IP, 30 of them are using website x, salad is using website x, website x is restricting how much data can be sent to that IP. But who knows 😂😂
what
How accurate even is that site
none
valls me a proxy
😭
its the one salad uses too which is annoying
and i assume thats why i dont recieve bandwidth anymore
L salad
Wonder if there’s a way to change it
change ip
i can’t
static ip?
there is also just isps that give dynamic ips but make it really hard to change it aka have your router off for a week
for it to possibly change
mine is static
i have VDSL so
my ip is fixed
i could probably ask them to swap my ip
but i’m not going to when it only affects salad
so i’ll just stop using salad
Sgs stopped starting?
VDSL doesn’t mean your IP is static? I’ve had ADSL, VDSL (FTTC it’s called here in the uk) , cable, (DOCSIS) and FTTP, some static, some dynamic and some persistent dynamic. Internet connection type has no bearing on whether your IP is static. Google your ISP and it’ll tell you,
depends by the isp
consumer residential connections are almost always dynamic
only businesses really benefit from static IP addresses
It was mad yesterday and the day before
Fully saturated bandwidth
Made like $7
Now it's just meh
Mines has been ok today, not as great as yesterday but still good!
with all due respect, you don’t know how my network is setup
my ip is static
do u have antenna
I never said I did? 😂😂
is there any way to have more chances to get bw jobs? I have a bad gpu but good bandwidth so there's a big difference in the earnings of bw sharing and gpu mining
not really, just make sure you meet the minimum requirements, run Salad for as long as you can, and try to reduce network activity from other apps / devices while you're sharing bandwidth
would it decrease the chance of me getting a job if I disable both gpu and cpu and have bw sharing enabled? @upbeat shuttle
cause if it doesn't then I'd rather do that as gpu mining gets me 50 cents whereas bw gets me $1.5
I have both CPU and GPU disabled without any BW sharing issues.
Bandwidth sharing is an entirely separate workload to everything else, you can run it with or without anything just fine :)
:O that's good to hear, imma do that too
when bw sharing in Romania?
^^
Not currently
Bandwidth Sharing is not currently available, nor in testing, in Romania
The pinned post I replied to should've explained this pretty well, but we don't actually know what countries will be supported next, nor when.
All we can do is give our best guesses based on either hints sometimes given by Salad, or other things i forgor.
There have been no such hints, leaks, or rumours about Bandwidth Sharing becoming available in Romania, I'm afraid, though this doesn't mean that it'll never be supported.
The nordic(?) regions, for example, were a complete surprise to us, along with a few others too.
oh
i got it
also i have an issue
ever since i switched from win 11 to 10
salad never did anything
no matter how long would i let it run
im either unlucky with workloads
OR
something is fucked up
technically yes i do this
but if you are on a single account then it only works for a single gateway per pc
so if you have 3 gateways in your country then you can only bandwidth share on 3 machines on one account
and a network switck???
today was not a so good day for me
switck
When your ISP goes down and you lose your bandwidth job…. 😬

when you pick up a nice CPU container that doesn't hog resources
when you pick up a nice GPU container that doesn't hog resources 😛
3090
Next 24hrs is the GPU earnings, pretty much the rest of that in the last 24hrs is BW, BW sucks right now
ask ur daddy
forget containers
😑
oh the hypocrisy
New salad update but no mention of a better speed test.
oh no an update... again..
What on earth is that BW o.O

you wouldn't want a 3090 anyways, 4090 is around the same price and has lower power consumption. If you were so inclined in getting an Nvidia that is.
uhhh can you find me a 4090 for £600 i would love that
3090
4090
how did you manage to think that the 4090 draws less power than the 3090
ha good joke 😄
linux tech tips said it had good power consumption stats. Maybe i mistook what he meant
He might've said better power efficiency
maybe
wdym good joke, i have seen loads of listings for a 3090 for £600
really now. i best get one then and put it up for salad to use...
Id pay it off in 4 months at this rate
I love ebay
there was loads on there for 600 a day ago
guess someone brought alot
plerion
you could make that back in 4 months with salad lol
I'd take that bet if I had that sort of disposable income laying around
PayPal credit can come in handily at times.
Though i've got other things i need to sort first. Will see if salad stays around the same amount for the next month or two and then decide
Doubt that but, nice spending money per month
@frigid reef does salad accept business ips for containers
no idea
hm azure hm
Man, i don't want to upgrade to the new update. I have the silent low power GPU container right now.
I'd prolly make a loss on Azure vms
but will have to to say on the high earning containers
if it ever worked
I got a maxed out bw job rn
salad wont work, as at the end of the day, its a vm
oh right I forgor
yeah i haven't. Mines been really weird of late.
also yes, ofc you will, the whole point about salad is that its cheaper then azure
and other major cloud services
good luck with that. GPU sales are down
I recommend you all update… sheesh!!!!
no 💀
well yeah ofc
Outrage last night and hadn’t got a bandwidth job since, updated and within 2 mins have a job 🤔
the update is prolly for containers
same lol
Nope bandwith
my BW has been up and down all week, thats after not getting any for a week or two before that, and before that i used to get between $3 and $10 a day.
it's been weird
You can see my outage then my update which instantly gave me a job 😊
Yeah I used to earn 5-12 per day now around 4-7 but last few days it’s been 8-14
am installing salad knowing full well that i am not earning shit
13*
GPU containers have been helping me out. Handy having a 3090 😄
Yeah mine is bandwtih only
Transferred 1.3TB the other day (upload)
I only recently started allowing salad to use my GPU.
I have another IP coming next month to the salad network 😛 I'll have 2 from Virgin and 1 for Sky gig internet. So 3 devices with BW enabled and 1 having my GPU running too. Lets hope everything goes well
this happens to me sometimes but i cannot find a pattern to it, it seems more like a co-incidence than anything else
I have a UPS with my mini PCs and router on it. So i should always stay earning.
I think so
Yeah could be but I hope for the best! 😂😂
going on $8
GPU + BW
3090 and country doesn't matter
no i hasn't. Mines been bad
I kinda just hinted
yes the UK
why 0.02$ daily when I was able to make 2$ daily 😦
I’m from the uk, Edinburgh Scotland, make decent cash for bandwidth.
ill buy you a rx580
has the static pay decreased for anyone here in the UK?
hard to tell
my friend had a sudden drop in his static pay from ~0.0044 to ~0.0038 per 15 mins
no containers or anything
I wouldn't be surprised if they stopped the static pay outright tbh
did they improve US bandwidth recently? haven't checked in 4 month
4090 is NOT the same price
4090 is 3k aud and a 3090 is 1.2k
In the US a 4090 is $500-$700 more than a 3090
They range from about £250-£500 in the uk for a 3090.
One example but there are many.
yes, italy too
i need
It looks like it has for me. 0.0045 to 0.0035
I don't trust those listings at all
People could get double that if they just sold it on eBay, even with all their fees
they get seller protections and all that
It’s the same with iPhone too, on eBay £550-£600, marketplace £300-£450. Not saying it couldn’t be a scam but if you’re picking it up locally it’s easy enough to test,
there's any number of potential issues with it that can't be found with a couple minute test
and people basically never accept returns on fb marketplace, and there's nothing that can be done if the item actually isn't as the seller described
Well not here in the UK
yikes
but i’m not in the UK am i
yes i just noticed the conversion rate above.
the 3090 is cheaper than the uk though from the looks
i got a 3080ti from it :?
💀 I saw an obvious scam listing on eBay for a 4080 from a brand I’ve never heard of for $440 brand new
Their account is brand new too
Holy shit that is cheap even if it was an old mining card
that's just a scam
don't bother even entertaining the idea that it could be legit
Yeah I know
I wonder what they would send instead of a 4080 if they even send anything
how sad that they decreased rates for italy.. i'm earning half than before now
Meanwhile me earning 0.001$ per day
contry
India👽
