VM?
i thought salad doesn’t work when u rdp
RDP isn't VM
try and use anydesk, it should work
no it's a host
Remote Desktop Protocol
it works fine
they're just accessing their other PC from their main PC
yes ^
when someone uses RDP it is generally inplied that it’s a VM
Depends what kinda people you usually talk to I guess
strictly speaking, scelli is right
but I've also seen people refer to (cloud) VMs by that too
running on the same network?
isn’t it basically impossible to have two sgs clients running on the same network
or has it changed
it depends on how many sgs gateways exist in your country
the number of gateways = maximum number of sgs clients per network
so how many are in the uk?
^
it would be like totally hilarious if salad pauses itself on my server tonight
bro sgs hasnt even opened since i updated it
how do i get it to open
or how do i roll back the update
does it work in inida guys
ohk
I lost the job last night, then didn't bother running my laptop. But when I turned it on this morning, it's pretty good
around 40-50
is that for download and/or upload?
how to get a job man
need help getting one irl
wait until you see my lifetime balance 
new ones,
France - borrel
Czechia - Czechia
the updates have nothing to do with the backend and job availability
correlation isn't causation
I used to have like 13-14 hours of consistent earnings for 5 days straight
And after I updated to 1.3.1 salad's been doing the wonky on me
So coincidence? I think not -_-
It was an easy 40-50 cents per day and half now it's zero ever since I updated. No containers, no bandwith no nothing
wait a bit longer 
it is a coincidence
stop overthinking the backend of a vegetable app
Alr
yes approx
i just had 4 of my PCs restart because of windows updates
my street went out for like 10 seconds
lmao
it's so stupid
no one else in my entire area, only my street
gives me a chance to update my computers and salad though
🥲
bandwidth sharing Poland when? (joke)
aer lingus almost made me die
10/10 airline
stay stuggling
it will take a day or two but it will happen
How can I increase my earning? I'm getting very less earning after update
And also not showing 24hrs earning
*next
Salad cannot predict Bandwidth Sharing earnings
I'm using GPU and cpu both rtx 3050 and i5 12th gen
exactlyyy
that’s not related to bandwidth sharing
how do i make the bandwith speed test consistent
mine always just decreases
when everywhere else it stays at a consistent speed
you're not the only one, dw
though the only way to stay within the TOS for workarounds is just to keep restarting saladbowl until you get decent results
Borrel what is that name
bovril
Wth did discord remove pins?
yes
waiting for bandwidth jobs is hell
salad decreased rates to 0,25 to italy too now.. wtf
i think i'm gonna protest by uninstalling the app once i reach the paypal goal
static pay fell lmao
but not so low i see
for me went from 0,50 to 0,25
fuck salad, gonna uninstall when i reach the 6$
not worth anymore
- leave bad review
because we are not talking about traffic, it's static pay
im not sure if they removed static pay in the us or something is broken on my side, but i dont get static pay anymore
honestly beggars can't be choosers
it's literally free money and if you are relying on it for anything you already have big problems
0,25 is too low, electricity costs more than that
finally i can turn off the pc overnight
you ignored the point
static pay could've very easily been removed a while ago
I'm surprised it still exists at all.
It's called bandwidth sharing, not sitting as an idle node and getting paid
static pay exists for countries with little or no traffic , oh wow just like italy
is not my fault you're in uk and have a ton of traffic
and can't understand how important was static for me
i havent signed any contract, if i don't accept the new pay rates i leave, no one can say anything
You're taking this way too seriously and are still not understanding the reality of the situation
the reality is that if i don't accept getting paid too low i leave without any but
there is nothing to understand
Whatever, you are more than welcome to leave
ozua seems forcing
i do not feel this
i uninstall when i reach 6$ for paypal
and even if they did force you why should you care
i'm at 5.86
i never cared xd
wtf why earnings are that trash rn
static pay rates decreased again
uninstalled
okay
me when the not reliable free money generator becomes slightly worse
how is she forcing
also can't really blame salad for there not being as much demand in italy compared to other countries
the bandwidth has to be used by someone
bandwidth sharing and containers heavily rely on demand from customers
"protesting" by deleting salad isn't going to magically increase demand
i was complaining about static pay
this is given from salad not customers
it's better than absolutely no earnings at least
less supply :>
Nah, cause if he don't normally leave his PC on , its kinda a waste. He was just being clear that it's not worth it leaving it on. Where to I I leave mine on 24/7 so makes no difference how much or little I get. However if there was some kind of protest , I'd surely join 🙂
Well you won't get more static pay so not really more for you. However 1 less chief to take a job when there is one available ...
that's what they want you to think
when decrease it again and again, i'm out
because.. it is?
you can also just only run Salad when your PC would be on normally
and not run it 24/7 just for Salad
sgs takes 6 hours to start, not worth at all
better keep uninstalled
why are Virginia librespeed servers flipping me over 
Especially on the 24/7 bandwidth laptop
Which I do need to dust that thing out soon tbh
It got both a minecraft server and a salad bandwidth on 6gig of ram it’s being worked
I would never trust my laptop with sgs to have another app running aside from glasswire to monitor it lol
It's gonna choke out sgs or some shit making it die faster than it already dies by itself
(from my experience)
True
Especially if it isn't too worth it
Lol I run SGS with a bunch of other stuff 24/7
Idk…. With both a server and a SGS connection hard limited to 100 Mbps I might need to relocate the minecraft server
Minecraft shouldn't be using much bandwidth .
Added some countries to the supported list - Some of these were already supported, but in the 'in testing' list because they weren't officially announced yet. I think there'll be an official announcement of some kind about this soon.
- Canada, India, Japan, Netherlands, South Africa, Switzerland.
added borrel, are you sure about czechia?
did you mean eucalyptus?
anyways I've updated the pinned posts a bit
reworded some things, updated some things
bandwidth doing godly things
I've had a thought - maybe, in some scenarios, your router could be limiting how much bandwidth you can share, just by being too weak to handle all the throughput.
Anyone here that seems to be hitting some kind of limit with Salad using your bandwidth - that isn't an ISP set limit - and has a router that lets you see its CPU utilisation, are you able to confirm this?
i can confirm this just by transferring big ass files across my local network with my gigabit LAN connection through my ISP provided router
that's a good point
it is full speed for a few minutes and then slows down to like 700mbit, and i am fairly sure this is just the router as no hdd cache is filling up or anything
though the web interface has no cpu monitor
if it slows down after a bit of time, that probably sounds like thermal throttling?
I don't think mine manages to overheat, it's built with decent surface area
probably just too weak
i have not opened mine up but i bet it's just a metal shield that keeps the soc cool
change thermal paste

isp routers don't use thermal paste usually
most of the time it is just thermal pads and heatspreaders
What? I've done tests . My router is good 🤨. More the. Likely your equipment can't handle the speeds.
Sounds like isp throttling .
Sounds like your transferring files too or from a HDD
Ssd are fast but remember they read faster then they can write
And also small files will be slower transfer speeds over big files
hence i specified "big ass files"
one is on sata 6g, the other is on nvme
the overall bandwidth available is more than enough to saturate a gigabit lan connection
i know computers as well, do not worry
UK ISPs, at least, kinda can't do that
I know mine isn't too powerful, I was just wondering if anyone else saw the same thing
My routers good up to 2.3 gbs wired - 1.6gb wireless
per port or overall?
Added two more countries:
- Argentina, South Korea
in other news, Twitch has pulled out of South Korea due to exorbitant bandwidth costs
should've used salad 😤
because in south korea the ISP can charge both the sender and receiver of packets instead of just the receiver
I believe overall , only have two ports , so that 1 gig per port plus wifi still pretty good for free . Cause I run a hub after my fiber box and run my wi-fi off my hub so really don't even use my router for anything other then wifi , just an extra hop when I pull straight from the hub.
@safe loom
I checked my logs today, and apparently there's a third gateway for Australia now
yes!
i noticed yesterday
or well
yesterday morning
i pinged ozua but ozua cba to edit the pins 
i am going to shit yourself
Is there a way to maximise my bw earnings
Reduce network traffic from your device / other devices, run Salad more often
that's about it
Oh and you could also be on hard wired ethernet, not wifi
at what amount do they cap out at?
and do you notice Salad's bandwidth usage hitting your internet speed limits?
0.0034
Not really sure about weather there hitting since I'm not at my pc
Is there any way t check
probably with task manager, or some bandwidth monitoring app like glasswire
its likely because you're being paid out static pay
theres no current demand for you node but since its online and ready for demand you're being paid a static amoutn per 15 mins
like this
Alright
sometimes you wont and it will be static
some days you wont even get static
its really just patience
Italy static pay increased back up yet?
(no) idea
probably not, dunno why you care so much though
wizard of ozua
because if they changed back i reinstall, but at this point i doubt they will ever increase back
you are one in a krillion
i don't think they care if it is installed on your computer or not
there are many other italians who would run it and not care
90% of italians has 10mbps upload or less
i have a very good internet, they loved my 300mbps upload
Damn I've only been getting static earnings no jobs
Is the only way to know if there is demand for your node is through increased earnings
I've been running salad for about 6 hours today and it's not downloaded sgs-client yet. I'm in Sweden if that helps which should have sgs-client available.
However, my friend in the netherlands got his sgs-client in the workloads folder in a few minutes
Is bandwith even profitable in australia?
no idea, I'll ping @safe loom since he probably uses it, and idk why other aussies here
Since bandwidth sharing demand is on a per country basis, it could just be that the Netherlands is in higher demand from Salad's customer(s) than Sweden is currently.
Just in case, I'd recommend reading through the pinned minimum requirements post to make sure that you do indeed meet the minimum requirements.
You could also check out the other pinned posts to maybe try some troubleshooting steps or read some FAQs that might help :)
Alright, the only issue is that my IPquality is somehow considered to be a 65 out of 100
i dont use VPNs at all so idk why it says this
hm
could've just got unlucky, and your ISP gave you an IP that was previously used by someone else for some sus stuff
i think the pins include a guide to refresh your IP address
if not, there's guides online
I've gotta sleep, hope it works out for you :)
👍
Alright thank you
bw sharing usage should show up under 'sgs-client.exe'
if it isn't there it means the bandwith sharing hasn't started yet
that's probably static earnings and cpu/gpu container
i had gpu disabled
whats your gpu
damn
how long do static earnings even last for
i've had them for a while
like 10 hrs
oh they will stay
yesterday it took me like 18 hours to get sgs-client to show up in glasswire
alright
how much did you earn from that job if you dont mind me asking?
i got this little spike here
does that mean i had a job for a bit?
wait hover over what?
the spikes
mt static pay is 0.003 same for another guy in here
how much did you earn from the job you got
like 2-3 cents every 15 mins
that was bandwith sharing so like a couple hours till my pc decided to crash lol
damn
so you probs earned liek close to 50 cents?
yea
alr
Before it was only usin 0.1mbps
now its using 4.1
does that mena i mightve got a job
^^ @grizzled hedge
Does bandwith stop working if i play games?
It shouldn't really
unless if your game is pretty bandwidth intensive, or maxes out your CPU
should sgs start back up after or do i have to stop mining and do it again
It'll start by itself when it wants to, just leave Salad running :)
Alright thank you
Is there any way to get SGS to use anymore of my network
so i can earn more
sorry if thats a stupid question
it'll use as much as it needs to
can take up to a few days in my experience, just keep it on
Are you less likely to get jobs at night?
hm
I suppose other people in your country probably won't have their PCs running overnight, so you might earn a bit more, since you're not sharing some of the pot with them
i have not noticed any patterns relating to time of day and getting jobs
Star chef only applies to containers
though it can be earned from chopping with anything enabled
is static earning stopped in india?

What's star chef status
What is a Star Chef? Star Chefs are a cut above, as they represent the most trusted Chefs in the Salad Kitchen. These users have proven their reliability on our
Let’s go I restarted my laptop and sgs isn’t starting wohoo 😐😐
(I’m ranting here cus every time I do so sgs will come back)
any update king
works for me nowadays

Hey bro I know your from Australia how much do you earn on average from bandwith mining?
nah
For me static pay is now like $0.24 a day
yea same for me
Wtf hy do you have such good static pay
my bandwith crashed
and still hasnt started up still
why'd this happen
it just stopeped
all of a sudden
heh it's gotten a bit rougher over the past few days
it's died on two of my PCs of non Salad related causes (bsod + blocked by router) and hasn't really came back
at least, until last night
i haven't checked it this morning
hopefully it's come back on those PCs
stealing this
where can you check if it has been blocked by router?
that was just a me issue
Hi, please dont post pictures/talk about this program anymore, It has been told to be taken down by salad
ok
👍
why did they say to take it down?
it breaks tos
it 'technically' breaks the tos
hmm weird, i guess ill "delete" it from my pc
they dont want you reading logs 😱 (this is only an assumption)
it's likely because it might enable someone to reserve engineer Salad easily
Lol smh .
If they don't want anyone to read log files they should encrypt them .
Log files are created to be read. Am I wrong 🙂 you're not modifying anything.
.
read my message, but again
If someone wants to reverse engineer , they will do it regardless . I don't think they're going to talk about it knowing it could be legal troubles .
I don't need to .
imagine banning log files reading scripts
Its more they dont want third party programs of salad that they cannot keep confirming if its safe or not
by this logic, i shouldn't even use Snaketail for log auto-update and reading then
thus, i shouldn't read the logs at all
again, its more because they dont want a third party program going around that they cant double check is doing anything sus
again, How can they make sure its only reading a log file and not doing something else aka cookie grabbing etc
if they dont have the time to check it
that's... actually a good argument
eh
either that or i don't wanna keep going with this
so personal use is fine, just don't share anything
exactly
still waiting for sgs 
how do you know your router blocked it?
~
its own ddos protection thing kicked in
which is very dumb
it only checks for if different types of traffic exceeds its limits
Most routers if your logged in, it will say rejected or denied requests - along those lines - high volume # is likely they're blocking
we're back bishes
first time i don't care about the update
I haven't got one in ages you have great luck
lol i never cared about the updats , cause they cant fix libspeed or the gpu mining.
mine still hasn't come back
mine just crashed and i havent even been getting static earnings
Would deleting the bandwith folder even help
no
How long did you have tk wait
a bit over 2 days
For me, static pay in sweden hasnt booted back up in 2.5 weeks, i got a 32 ip score aswell using the one linked in minimum reqs, it was 65 before i restarted it a few days ago
Hi all
If your ping flexes a lot , it could be 1 reason.
If you have cable - your ping will indeed flex doing anything on your PC/home. FYI.
salad rn can just be put in the trash bin, they became greedy
im not getting static pay anymore but very little of the time i get no jobs so whatever
actually my static pay stopped a long time ago
you guys got skill issue fr
im averagng about 2 tb a month give or take a lil
new times roman lookin ahh
it's dark reader I'm pretty sure
I've been using cable the entire time
cable as in ethernet
what is a good app or website to see how much bandwith salad has used so i can see if my bandwith is workin?
A lot of people here use glasswire
not everyone lives in uk
technically yeah
they said they were gonna actually have an announcement for these countries that were 'officially' supported, but not announced
but that hasn't happened yet
oh
and basically the 100ms ping requirement can't even be reached in india :/
i got like 80/80 speeds still no sgs
wdym bro
india has crazy good internet
it's not a requirement
maybe I should reword my minimum requirements post a lil
the 100ms thing is just inferred from Salad's SGS promotion material
it does
but there's a 1000 routing issues
and even sgs isn't coming up
even though i reached the speed requirement
this has been an issue since beta :/
Damn when I was in india I had no issue I had like 300 up and 70 down or something crazy like that
Internet is also mad cheap there
it is
5g?
see the internet is usable but stuff like packet loss and ping spikes and bad routing are a common problem
which never get fixed
and to get those fixed, you need to give like a 100 things
Nah fiber
Fiber has been reliable so far
From jio
Why js the bandwidth sharing jobs so bad in Australia
Because no one in Australia wants to buy their service ? Or many from there
Aigjt
Well i can't remember exactly the speed but it was rlly close to that
It's was like 300 download tho
Kinda forgot upload but close to what I said
What state r u in
in the west
they measure ping differently from the speedtest server
and ping doesn't matter
same it's been two days still no sgs after i changed my pc
I got sgs but no containers
i have sgs and one surprisingly profitable container
waiting for sgs on my server to start up as well
For some reason it would appear as if sgs is transferring lots of bandwidth but I am not earning anything, only static pay

i have been earning the same flat rate for the entire night and looking at glasswire shows that a lot of bandwidth has been used over the night
it is very strange
I am getting just sgs static pay
But glasswire and task manager shows sgs has been sharing a lot of bandwidth for the past couple of hours
behold
sgs not earning anything anymore
you can see at that big block with the container where sgs just stopped earning me anything
maybe salad is compensating for that big ass container I got that used no resources?
it's weird
if it's not fixed by this evening i will email support
no, containers and bandwidth sharing are entirely different things
what gateway is that?
Rose
Tbh don't look bad compared to the 24 hr graph vs what you shared on SGS.
Yes because that's the container carrying me
Sgs should show up as small bumps on that long flat section but it is not
Look closer , it's not flat
sgs running finally
been seeing a few people saying the same thing
I better get this back I swear
I'll ask about it
I've emailed support about it with my logs so hopefully they'll know what the problem is
I don't wanna stop/reinstall Salad because I'm consistently getting bandwidth jobs
could you send a screenshot of glasswire's graph view, with just sgs client selected?
the graph view
@safe loom Hey bro i know your from australia is there only very little paying jobs here?
bru wtf how you using 126 mbps mine uses only 7 lmao
7 maximum
cause I'm in the UK
thats the highest ive seen it go
could you check what gateway it's currently using
like uhh
right click it in task manager and open file location
😭
imma check my earnings real quick 
uh oh
oh :(
😭
okay yes it is please fix ‼️
hopefully the Salad support can just top up my balance for the used bandwidth lmao
They have to pay for the 3090 giveaway somehow. Lmao
I can't promise we'll get our compensation, but I sure hope we do
;-;
They're basically not paying you for a service you agreed too, they absolutely should
my sgs only uses like 20kb in 5 minutes time and it doesn't go up or down, been like that for the past 3 days
NL bandwidth sucks
That's not really true, Salad has the right to not pay you since it's not real money technically.
I guess you signed up for nothing I take it
?
Sign up to earn - offer your hardware for salad balance , your not getting your balance for them utilizing your hardware/internet.
Salad isn't doing it on purpose bro
legal obligations and whatnot aside, let's just hope they stick with what's morally right
^^ which they normally do, I trust Salad a lot
I'm going to leave all my devices running normally, I trust they'll manage to fix it before the weekend, and get us our lost earnings back somehow
Maybe this could just end up being a very long payout delay :)
hopefully Salad support will get back to me too
gotta keep thinking positive
yeah
50 dollar bandwith spike on fix day
cause I thought it was the app API lagging lol
that'd be funny to see
with how much bandwidth I've shared since it stopped paying out, mine would probably be at least a couple dollars up until this point
too busy with no built pc to have this issue, just get good
real!!
I was so tempted to take out my GPU and dedust it while Salad wasn't earning lol
turn on ray tracing it will incinerate all the dust
fan starts spinning to 3000rpm
my sgs died 
it's still not working?
My sgs was fine this morning when I looked 😋🤓
motherboard is doa, even the q flash that should work without any cpu+ram dosent work
rip
Boards are fairly cheap
there’s not high demand, but when there is you’ll notice it
whats the highest you've ever gotten
man i cant wait till i get fibre
the max ive gotten in a day is 50C
currently i get 30¢ a day
one thing i notice after high demand is that once the demand dies down sgs just doesn’t run for like 2-3 days
then it goes back to 30¢ a day
Skill issue
me who earns almost nothing on bw
wasn’t complaining?
i was pointing out that how salad explains bandwidth sharing is actually how it is?
some days you’ll have high demand and high pay and then you may have nothing for the rest of the week
Yeah that's happened to me when was the last time you got high demand
like a month ago
Damn
like exactly 30d
Aight mine just died and now it's finally back
will probably be higher coming upto christmas
Is their little companies that use it here?
streaming always jumps at christmas
little companies big companies
Yeah so is it mainly streaming companies that use the bandwith
i’m not sure if glasswire is entirely accurate but i often have netflix as an ip when sgs-client is running
Hopefully I actually earn more now
salad doesn’t disclose clients who use saladcloud unless the clients are open about using saladcloud
Alright
to avoid the situation aws had
What happened to aws
they disclosed big brands using aws, and those big brands didn’t want them to do that so they got sued
don’t remember which companies but you can just google it
Or around that time
wasn’t released
Alr
in australia*
Hopefully we can make some bank
australia bandwidth released in march iirc
Do you use tpg?
used to
was sick of the downtime
and the shit speeds
so i switched to their parents! iinet
80 a month for a minimum of 350/40 realistically it’s 750/40
there’s ups and downs with them but nothing that potentially a new router could fix
just gotta find one that supports coax and we’re off to the races
have an issue where the wifi will randomly restart, then come back online at capped speeds
ethernet is rarely affected though, only when there’s an hour or 2 of isp/zone downtime
Yeah I use tpg but internet is so expensive here
Damn I pay 35$ for 600/600
damn i didn't ask 🔥
hopefully with the new nbn and fiber rollout with the new standard prices will drop
theres no need for 25/12 to be 50 a month
like are you serious
I can get 1500/1500 for 70$ 😲
it is, the bumpiness is just variance in the static pay. If it were working you would see very visibly bumps of where sgs kicks in and bw sharing works.
so real
Broo wtf where I am it's 70 dollars for like 25/5 with tpg

Australian isp's be like
Hi, since the latest update was released both of my PC's have failed to initiate sgs-client.exe for bandwidth sharing. ( I've attempted a complete uninstallation of both salad, and WSL, shift+restart, and then reinstallation of salad+WSL and still nada)
Support have been quite unhelpful and just providing me with a copy&paste responses to my questions and closing my support tickets.
Just wondering if this a common thing with this update or not 🤷♂️
What country are you in, and what internet speeds do you see in the latest log file at C:\ProgramData\Salad\logs\ndm - They'll be the final 'Download rate' and 'Upload rate' results
UK - 120Mbps up/down (ndm/librespeed-cli always misreports as 120down/70 to 80Mbps up though) Where as any other speedtest service shows my full connection speed.
Note: The only program developed by Salad is the official Salad app (http://www.salad.com/download)
We aren't able to provide support for any others, and we can't guarantee that they're safe to use.
It's been working great the past couple of months. other than a 6-12hour wait for sgs-client to initiate after a reboot or salad update (and by working great, I mean several terabytes per month in bandwidth usage)
but since the last salad update a few days ago it just doesn't initiate.
My salad apps says they're chopping, but my total hours chopping doesn't increase on the earnings overview webpage 🤷♂️
nope, I am on static IP with a positive IPscore rating
no 😄 it hasn't initiated on either PC since the latest salad update was released.
Three days ago if memory serves
hmmm
I'll just keep waiting and maybe it'll start 🤷♂️ This is by far the longest I've had no sgs-client running though, it's a little irritating
it's usually fantastic, anywhere between $2 and $8 a day just for bandwidth (very rarely do I get CPU containers - I don't allow GPU usage what so ever.)
yeah it's usually really good in the UK
it could just be down to supply and demand
I highly doubt it
I'll also note that there's currently some payout issues with Bandwidth Sharing in the UK and India, so keep an eye on if sgs client shows up in task manager
I've been watching for it lol, that's how I know it hasn't started 😄
YES TRUE
waiting for 2 weeks
the issue ozua's referring to has only started ~ 14 hours ago
but in India after 4 dec sgs is so rare
theres prob something wrong
fellas
🔥
lol thats a nice chunk of change
nothing here cos that damned sgs-client hasn't started for days 😂
wth
salad paid it
?
like the bandwidth we dint get anything from
ye
It's apparently almost fixed
i agree 😄
Kind of an open question, but what's the longest have you had to wait for sgs-client to start?
Mine usually starts within 12hours of telling salad to chop indefinitely.
Now I'm up to 3 days (very nearly 4) 😦
i have never seen your earnings graph empty before lol, this is my first time seeing dead earnings from you
(the earnings are from mining)
over 3 weeks in sweden (finland, Hetzer server location)
holy shit
That's a terrifying prospect >..<
aye
so basically killing sgs was a massive mistake and i should've let it run despite it not seeming to work right
yea. GW said it was working so i left it
so now i wait for sgs to start again lmao
aye lol my pc runs 24/7 and i leave it running
Looks like the us still has dead bw earnings (at least for me)
I still have to send Ericka my logs once I get home
good luck, 4days i've been waiting lol
i have usage, just the graph is fked .
i sent everything ages ago and i think it is being sorted out now
looks like they checked logs server side, seen what people are owed and are paying it out as a top up to balance
it would appear that is the case
within 24 hours, fast working
ericka approached me about it about 4 hours ago and i sent off all my logs and stuff
am not active much anymore, but i still run salad, i just thought BW job stopped
lucky bugger 😂
now i wait for workloads
I'll be off to bed soon and hope sgs starts on day 5 🤷♂️
The Bandwidth Sharing payout issue has been resolved btw
i got a 3 cent spike
thought it was a cpu container
because a cpu container started right after
how tf you get a cpu container bro
Lmao it’s been 4 days sgs still hasn’t started
im him
NAH
how do yuo know if you even get a cpu container
Where in logs is it
you search predicted earning report or docker.io
and then go up so it goes to the bottom of the log
and then you can just use common sense of reading logs
which log folder is it in
main logs
is bandiwth sharing avaible in canada?
yes
uhh its mid
every now and then when some events pulls up it spiked
spikes
oh ok how would i know if its working?
If sgs-client.exe is running in task manager
thank you very much
👍
What's the most you've made off it?
In a day?
Yeah
What time of year
And what state are you in if you don't mind me asking
Okay
Hmm. no jobs either since upgrade now that I think about it. Then again I'm in Canada so it doesn't matter much.
💀
banwidth
what the actual f
i extremely doubt that could happen to me too if i was still using salad rn
it was a error with salad not paying out peoples earnings, it’s just built up over hours
It’s not they have been running it for 15 minutes and got that
ah ok
is this fixed?
Yes
and this happened with 1.3.3 users?
and did it happen only with bandwitdh ?
or with container aswell
it was bandwidth only
how long did it take u guys for sgs to download
at this point i've given up with salad and switched to GPT websites
UK
up to half a week
my sgs was starting after 6 hours with italy gigabit connection but after they decreased the rates i'm not contributing to he network anymore, i'm still here in discord just to look at other people reaction and hoping for a increase back
oh you're not just running it while your PC is running anyways?
nope, spite against salad, you pay low? you dont receive hardware
i see
@safe loom have you been getting high demand too?
Hulu and Disney+ aren't working anymore
they say I'm using a VPN
"However, we have seen no evidence of this happening to our Chefs." my ass
I'm going to unistall salad, they lowered the static pay and the SGS client slots to 0,25$ and now it isn't barely worth, SGS starts after 3/4 h, if you are lucky, when you get SGS it last for max 2 days then it die.
This company is slowing dying, why someone would give you their gpu, CPU if it isn't worth anymore to keep on their PC Just for getting 0,24$/day and few cents for destroying their hardware, also there is no traffic for bandwith in others country execpt UK.
This company went from one of the best passive income to now, one of the worst.
In my opinion if the company won't increase the rate everyone will leave salad.
Do you think it's fair having 2 TB/month of bandwith in UK and in other country 0?
2tb? that's low for the UK =/
try 10tb
but yeah bw sharing is weird, you can have decent bandwidth in uk and be passed up for someone with low bandwidth in the uk
it's been kind of weird since last week
I Hope so everyone will leave salad
well thats a bit much, i do understand your frustration though
Have you seen for how much they sells your GPU in salad.com?
Something like x30 what we get paid
Try to answer the question by Imaging to living in Italy or other country in EU and getting 0 traffic, static pay of 0,24$/day max but SGS Will start After 4h and last few hours
Imagine how I feel being in the UK with 120mb up/down, and then not having sgs-client start at all since the release of 1.3.3, where as a friend with 50down 25up gets sgs-client started a few hours of installing salad 😅
so i really do understand your frustration
Unistall salad
salad can be grabbed and put in the trash bin rn
And sells at least for x10
more xd
I pay £15 a month for 120mb up/down, salad earns me like $80-100 in a good month
im happy with that, capitalism does suck but money is money lol
They earned 2k from you
we earn 7$ a momth with salad, then take the 1$ fee and see the conclusion
I doubt it
back in a mo, my coffee machine just beeped
If everyone unistall the app, they Will higher the rate and you Will get 300$/month
Yeah I've experienced smth like this, but a while ago lol
My main unstable laptop that got bad speedtest got SGS instantly and my second laptop that had a good speedtest took days to start lol
Dosent seem to happen anymore though as I get it instantly
i cannot pay back internet bill, i cannot pay back electricity back, i cannot pay a idk netflix subscription for example, is completely useless now salad in italy
just before i go have coffee, I use an app with the initials HG - it is a bandwidth sharing app, it earns me maybe $20 in 4-5months? 🤷♂️ anyhoo back after coffee
they use your ip for shoes scraping lol uninstall that
Me with 4 bandwidth sharing apps
Earnapp, pawns, honeygain, salad
And this grass app but it's still in beta so no currency value
poor ip
Yeah lol, gotta plan on restarting my router sometime soon
Right
my ip is perfectly healthy even with salad, hg, pawns, earn, p2p, i just wouldn't recommend content delivery in hg, if you think salad is a rig then you'll loose your head when you see how hg do things
have you checked the ip quality score?
yup ^^
25 score
I Guess Is that value
you ip changes?
even have an account with them so i can check regularly as they only allow x amount of lookups
my ip is static
nope i also have static ip
tf
at least your ip has been detected as residential proxy on ip2location?
(and from how much time are you running those app?) because takes time to update the databases
24/7 for several years other than salad lol
impossible
There are few IPS that cannot be ruined by ip quality score, if you pay ip quality score they can put your ip in a White list, i think your ISP paid for getting all the subnet in White list or you have a bug with il quality score
after 1 month of running pawns my ip had 99 score and iwas banned from surveys
after 4 long months i stopped using it, the ip quality gone to 28
and never gone back to 0... it was 0 before running those apps
I had one warning months ago due to a misconfigured email server i had up and running
i had to use my 4g data to access surveys it was a pain..
oh man that sucks 😦
my isp refused to change my ip unless i paid them 20€ tf
other isps changes ip every times you restart your modem, this isp no
I gave up on surveys when I was completing them to fast and not being rewarded
i never asked static ip
cant you ask them to put you behind the CG_NAT that they should be running?
prolific is good paying survey platform and doesn't give you the error "you are not eligible for this survey"
Customer service doesn't know what Is NAT
i'm not running under nat as i can open all the ports i want
you running windows firewall?
no
what you running then?
and im surprised your isp support doesnt know what a nat is 😅 that's just tragic >..<
my modem has moderated ports blocking for security but why asking me this?
we are talking about my isp forced me to stay with static ip for some reasons
They know, but not the normal customer service that reply to your calls but that one of higher livel that reply to tickets
That's Italy, you signed something writen in little in the last Page of your contract
..< I'd try and get past public facing support workers
try and get them to forward the request to the engineering department or something
about gpu, i have a 3070ti and 64gb of ram, i tried to give to salad access, they was paying me 0,70$ a day XD you really think i will give you my card for that low money? and they was using it 100% too
I wouldn't either lol
I run salad with gpu disabled as it's too expensive to run for mining
you can block the miners and leave gpu on to wait for a container
for the power consumption and heat and noise my pc produces, i want to get paid at least 20$ a day if you want my card, otherwise i keep it for myself and turn it off overnight
is what i did
Little point, I am rocking an AMD RX 6700XT
oh well yeah that explains it
😄
$20 a day sorry but no lol
0,70$ a day guys. very trash pay rate
then i don't give it away
i get $2 a day average
no problem
no thanks
i mean salad dont say that your going to make a fortune
the ones making a fortune is themselves xd
companies exists to be millionaires anyways
if you look at the salad cloud page you will see what your hardware is worth
but i don't accept they becoming millionaires with my hardware
i cannot see for how much they sell my bandwidth, they say "contact us"
look im not defending salad yes i think we should get paid more but its just how it is
absolutely
i do what i want with my internet and hardware, this is how it is
should read the ferengi rules of aquisition sometime, it's a pretty decent cheat code to this capitalist system
I think we should get paid the double of what we paid now
then dont run salad and dont complain
i'm not running it, read my name xd
yeah at least
ok cool
Idk about that man, i saw the payments and we get around 60% of what they sell hardware for
A little farfetched imo
but bandw is something misterious, we don't know
"contact us"
That's just how it is. The customers have their demands, and there's nothing we can do to change it. They're the one paying, after all
True, but kinda not my problem lol
For reference, StorJ pays 2$/TB for bandwidth. They say this cloud bandwidth is cheap that competition forces price down. Not sure how much salads pays per TB, but probably can't be that high.

Then we unistall this shit
goodbye then
What's StorJ?
i honestly cannot be asked to argue against someone that's already made their mind up
you're not going to change your mind, no matter what I say
damn that's savage, are you ferengi by any chance? 😄
Paid to store data on HDD with 99.5% uptime required + bandwidth. (aka much more difficult than Salad to use)
i stay in the discord hoping for updates about paying higher, but i barely talk, now is a coincidence
or perhaps romulan? 🤔
How i can change my mind if they are paying me 50% less of what i get paid 2 weeks ago
Imagine pulling a Star Trek
Ptah

Klingon ftw
its just the customer demands
mIw HIvje' 'ej nIteb
static pay is given by salad not customers
is a bonus to thank you about you being running salad
Imagine now you as a comunity helper get paid 200$/month, but suddently you get paid 100$/month.
So you Will leave and go somewhere else to do the helper, no?
I'm not actually too sure about this now btw
static pay was given with 0 traffic
bad analogy
Well the choice is now $100 or $0, unless others offer better (probably not). So your pick.
you get static till a job starts
i feel abused keeping my pc running 24/7 for just 6$ a month
I'd need to confirm this, but I think it could be that the customer might pay this static rate, kinda like a baseline cost for having this node immediately available
But that's just a theory
Indeed. So you're probably not the right user for these things. It's often only worth it if you're already using it + get extra. Or for heat in winter.
a game theory
