Bandwidth Sharing FAQs + Troubleshooting

[peak terrace]

now it's just rose 1

[frigid reef]

legit restarted my pc like 50 times all rose 1

[peak terrace]

i have not had anything other than rose 1 for about 2 months now

[upbeat shuttle]

idk about roses, i just know uk-2 is shite

1 and 3 are cool

[gleaming shell]

Same with us 2

But us 3 is also shi

But literally no one gets us 3 so it doesn't matter

[thorny imp]

lucky mf, sgs-daisy server (sweden) has been nothing but static pay + very small BW jobs (less than 300mb per 3 hours on Glasswire)

31.5gb in the past 24h 👍

[gleaming shell]

I just got no bw jobs for the first time in a long while

daffodil gateway

[idle quiver]

same man

rest of the time i had 100% guaranteed sgs but now after the stupid libreshit update it's down to 0 ;-;

athelas gateway

[gleaming shell]

yeah i only got like 50ish cents in the last 24h, which isnt bad, but is lower than usual

ohh libreshit

[green lantern]

meanwhile indians with good speeds getting nothing

[runic cargo]

Smoeone help me with 300mbps not getting any bw job 0 cent for the past 30 days

[upbeat shuttle]

Have you read through the pinned posts yet?

[runic cargo]

@upbeat shuttle i have read it just now
which folder do i choose for the firewall exception
it must be due to the firewall

[upbeat shuttle]

both

ah if you're in India, it could also just be because the supply/demand ratio over there isn't great for users

; bandwidth sharing jobs can be more rare than in other countries

[runic cargo]

can i get gpu container and bw sharing at the same time

this was the last log on 22 of decem,ber

here the upload speed was 0mbps

early december 6-7 i used to get 1 dollar per day

[green lantern]

Pinned where???? in this channel??

[runic cargo]

Yea

[green lantern]

Can you please share it? My pinned messages are not loadinng

[runic cargo]

here

[green lantern]

Thanks

Ohh that message. I thought something new

[upbeat shuttle]

well they do get updated occasionally

The pinned messages contain basically all of our knowledge on bandwidth sharing, so it's better for people to read through that, than have us go through the same troubleshooting every day

[upbeat shuttle]

Yep

[peak terrace]

tasty ip address you got there

[civic fern]

yum yum

imagine wanting to ddos someone random just because they wrongly shared an ip address

[peak terrace]

it is not something i would want to imagine

it is silly and a waste of effort

[hollow vortex]

Then why so many mods if they just say read pins. I mean a bot can say that w/ key words 🙂

[peak terrace]

🌝

[idle quiver]

[upbeat shuttle]

could setup something like that but ehh

[civic fern]

Spend hours to automatize something that takes a few seconds to copy and paste

Approved

[green lantern]

Any cool bw sharing tricks u guys got up your sleeve?

I am bored waiting for bw 🥱

[peak terrace]

yea

patience

and checking ndm logs every boot

[green lantern]

bro upload and download are good. ping is the only problem

Any tips on reducing ping? @neon blade

I have 143 and ig if I get 20 or something I'd be able to get a job

[neon blade]

ping doesnt really matter but its recommended that its kept below 100ms

[muted yarrow]

How to check ndm logs?

[neon blade]

as salad promotes <100ms pings to customers

[muted yarrow]

and how to confirm if it is ok

[neon blade]

with your eyes :D

[green lantern]

Sooo how should I reduce it?

[neon blade]

see if your download rate and upload rate are above than 10

[green lantern]

And upload and download need to be > 10 right?

[neon blade]

ethernet

get a new connection

:)

[muted yarrow]

First I need the first step how to check it 💀💀💀

[green lantern]

ethernet?!? hmmm

ill try

[neon blade]

you open it

[green lantern]

salad > top left corner > logs > ndm

[muted yarrow]

Thanks

[green lantern]

that was a joke

lol

do what prateek says

[muted yarrow]

Prateek is like
Someone's leg broken
He: How do I walk
Prateek: With your legs!

[neon blade]

I was under the assumption that you knew where a ndm log was

[green lantern]

I was joking btw

[muted yarrow]

I don't :|

[green lantern]

that is how you check ndm

[muted yarrow]

Okay Thanks both of you

[green lantern]

is inline 4 supposed to be an engine?

or something else?

[idle quiver]

you know what this thing is i have never seen this before after the update of salad it just showed up and that thing has some random ip too @neon blade

[neon blade]

well that does say wsl

and its some virtual

leave it as it is

[peak terrace]

do you use wifi or ethernet

[idle quiver]

yes indeed i haven't been getting sgs after the update while before 1.3.3 i used to get 100% guaranteed sgs i wonder if this is the thing which is blocking cuz it has some random ip address and it only shwoed up after the update

[neon blade]

that cant be related

wsl and bandwidth sharing are different things

[idle quiver]

ok

[safe loom]

you can use ethernet to an extent

but the rest of ping to the speedtest server is physical

i have 9 ping to my isp and 0.3ms to my router but obviously ill still have 200+ in the US

[green lantern]

wifi but connected to ethernet now to try

[green lantern]

makes sense

Im still getting 140+ ping. I need some other methods. You guys got any?

[safe loom]

no other ways to decrease than ethernet

once you get ethernet its a location problem

[runic cargo]

IS there minium system requirement to run bw

[green lantern]

10mbps+ upload and download speeds
<100 ms ping

[runic cargo]

system requirement

hardware

wondering if a veryy old dual core processor would work

That si your ip adress dont show

[runic cargo]

@upbeat shuttle i have excluded sgs in the firewall do i have to restart now

[green lantern]

where

[runic cargo]

This

someone said mine was

[green lantern]

There is no IP there bro

[runic cargo]

oh aight in mine there was

[green lantern]

u got trolled

ok then

@charred sparrow

[serene grotto]

salad has been cooking this week, what did they do 😭

from $0.40/day to $10

[gleaming wraith]

uk?

[serene grotto]

yeah it just shot up

[gleaming shell]

probably uk bandwidth or a good gpu

[serene grotto]

bandwidth

[gleaming wraith]

what’s ur bandwidth speeds

[narrow tiger]

good usa bandwidth when

[gleaming shell]

when eva

[narrow tiger]

💀

[gritty kestrel]

will bandwidth sharing work with VPN?

[gritty kestrel]

bro which part of he UK are you from?

[safe loom]

new years

[upbeat shuttle]

no

[gritty kestrel]

i-

i tried it and its working for me rn

[upbeat shuttle]

the option may show up, but you won't actually earn from it

[rancid python]

how about with a dns?

[upbeat shuttle]

no

[rancid python]

Lol

[green lantern]

actually?

[tropic vortex]

i have both and i still get crappy earnings 😭

i wish someone would tell me what im doing wrong

[gritty kestrel]

yea

the small bars r 0.00125 in india but in the UK theyre 0.0025

which is double

so like yea

idk if itll spike with a vpn tho

[green lantern]

uhhhhhhhhh ok

[gritty kestrel]

also does bw sharing depend on

download speed or upload speed

upload ig right?

[sinful lark]

How is bro using a vpn

[gritty kestrel]

idk man its working ;-;

[gritty kestrel]

do uk if bw is based on download or upload speeds?

[sinful lark]

No idea bro I'm in Australia

[gritty kestrel]

;-;

[upbeat shuttle]

both

also I'd not recommend using a VPN

[sinful lark]

Let me know if you actuallu get a job

[gritty kestrel]

yea i just took a free trial for today

which ends in 12hours

soo yea

just wanted to test

[gritty kestrel]

||any specific reason? ||

[upbeat shuttle]

because Salad doesn't want VPNs, they want real, residential connections

[gritty kestrel]

ohh okok

yea anyways it ends tomorrow so ill be back to normal ;-;

[ember shore]

does the earning increase after time ?

[gritty kestrel]

nope idts ;-;

[gritty kestrel]

sorry for disturbing you again, but do uk which countries have the most BW worloads rn?

just wanna know if spikes n worloads happen with VPN before my free trial runs out

[upbeat shuttle]

seems like it

[gritty kestrel]

do uk which country has the most chance rn?

for a BW workload?

[upbeat shuttle]

seems like it

[safe loom]

based

he meant you know not UK

[upbeat shuttle]

:)

[gleaming wraith]

@serene grotto

[serene grotto]

oh 900mbps down 120 up

and like 8ms to london

[gleaming wraith]

damn

i’m 70 down and 20 up

i once hacked school pcs to abuse salad bandwidth sharing

was amazing

got caught after like 3 months

they got like 2gb both ways

[safe loom]

that’s like gotta be illegal

[civic fern]

It is

[gleaming wraith]

yeah obviously

but i knew i wouldn’t get in much trouble cos of my age

it was pretty fun and interesting as well

i’d say it was worth it

[gritty kestrel]

did you get any spikes today?

[gleaming wraith]

got excluded from school for 5 days + they called police

but like i said, i didn’t get in much trouble

just don’t do it in somewhere like college or sixth form cos you’ll be finished

[runic cargo]

r/thathappened

[thorny imp]

99% of schools have really bad IP score so salad wouldn't work anyways

unless you school has like <10 people going in it.

[hard moon]

i am more than 150 ping i will get bandwidh job or not

[gritty kestrel]

n still no jobs for almost a week ;-;

[green lantern]

speed does not matter much

[gritty kestrel]

bro my friend has been getting so many jobs lol

[hollow vortex]

more then likely not.

[hollow vortex]

ur ping jumps to 139 during upload which is kinda high eh.

[runic cargo]

Can I bw share with just the cheapest used laptop

[sinful lark]

@safe loom have you been getting high demand in au??

[gleaming wraith]

• they don’t have residential ip

but i found a way to make it residential with a bit of ssh tunnelling and packet rerouting

[hollow vortex]

And there goes your ping

[gleaming wraith]

actually i made a decent amount

like 5 cent per 15 mins

[upbeat shuttle]

you'd probably want a quad core at least, otherwise you probably won't get great speed test results

[safe loom]

yes

over 1.30 a day

[hollow vortex]

My quad core 2nd laptop barely hits 300mbps both ways , with 8gb ram. CPU stressed the entire time window runs eh.

Maybe I should try a debloated windows on it. It freezes currently

[sinful lark]

bro

ive been gettign hot ass

like 40c a day

[safe loom]

what speed?

[sinful lark]

50 and like 10 up

so 50 down and 10 up

idk why internet it so expensive bro

its like 75 dollars for the plan

honestly is bs

should be cheaper

this is what im earning of bw

[safe loom]

i have 750 down 40 up

[safe loom]

cause it’s nbn

nbn is a fucking scam

get fibre

or cable

[sinful lark]

bru

i cant find where to get fibre

from

[safe loom]

i’m lucky that iiNet exclusively does fibre in my city

[sinful lark]

if u dont mind me askign what city r u in

[safe loom]

so i get fast as fuck speeds for 80 a month

[safe loom]

usually i don’t say but it’s big enough now so it’s fine, Ballarat

[sinful lark]

fuck bro

im in melbourne

[safe loom]

😭

[sinful lark]

and this dumbass nbn shit is oso fucking expensive

[safe loom]

melbourne internet is criminal

[sinful lark]

i get salad to run on fuckin 25/5 sometimes too

[safe loom]

i think iinet does fibre in only geelong ballarat and bendigo/maryborough i don’t remember

every city name there was spelt wrong according to my phone

[sinful lark]

damn

[safe loom]

yeah the minimum here is 5/5

[sinful lark]

for band with??

actually?

[safe loom]

yeah

i tested

[sinful lark]

i thought it was 10/10

[safe loom]

it is in most countries

but others can vary

[sinful lark]

is there no special mention?

of it being 5/5

or is it according to ur tests?

[safe loom]

only in some articles that say what the minimum speed is they’ll say “Minimum speeds are 10 down 10 up but in some regions it can vary from 5 up”

[sinful lark]

ah so we're just luck asf

to be one of those regions

im gonna test it out rq

on my old pc

with my phone wifi

[safe loom]

new year’s eve and day i got 2.40

[sinful lark]

for some reason

my demand just keeps on sucking ass

[sinful lark]

whats the best node for us

?

is it the singapore one

[safe loom]

i think all 3 gateways are hosted in singapore

[sinful lark]

ah ol

[safe loom]

but i have seen any difference in earning from the 3

[sinful lark]

so you theres no difference in earnings

[safe loom]

it’s probably different in other region but acdc hyacinth and whatever the fuck they called the 3rd is fine

[safe loom]

nah

i believe the earnings here are based on your internet speed

[sinful lark]

hmm alright

[safe loom]

if you have a high speed you’ll have constant demand, if you have a slower connection you’ll mostly get the static pay

[sinful lark]

really? On 25/5 i used to get like 0.0800

constantly

now its died down

but yeah

i also swear here i get sgs almost instantly

[safe loom]

well when my tests were 350/10 i would get mostly static pay, once i got 550+/40 i got a ton of demand

[safe loom]

yeah

[sinful lark]

damn bro

fuck me

[safe loom]

it’s almost like sgs is always open here

[sinful lark]

ive gotta get better internet

this dumbass government wont even invest in the internet

[safe loom]

there’s the nbn upgrade coming soon right?

[sinful lark]

not sure

[safe loom]

supposed to be by like 2025 the average speed would be 250 down 25up

[sinful lark]

Yoo wtf

where does it say that

[safe loom]

and the caps would be lifted from 1000/50 to 2500/250

[safe loom]

heard it on the news a few months back

[sinful lark]

you reckon theres any articles on it ?

[safe loom]

my favourite part was when they said “it will allow you to install the newest instalment of call of duty in less than 40 minutes”

[safe loom]

probably

[sinful lark]

NAHH NO WAY THEY SAID THAT SHIT

[safe loom]

i’ll try to find one in a min

[sinful lark]

bet

send me it

[safe loom]

we live in a time where the old people know these games are huge

have you seen that trevor IT guy on the news?

that guy pisses me off

he doesn’t even have degrees related to computer science

[sinful lark]

wait send me a picture

[safe loom]

he just yaps

[sinful lark]

i might know him

[safe loom]

my phone won’t let me copy images off google for some reason

but google “Trevor Long”

the second you see his face the blood in your body gets hot

fuckinng hate that guy

[sinful lark]

hey fucking even looks goofy bro

[safe loom]

😭😭

my 12 year old sister knows cybersecurity better than this fucker

[sinful lark]

bro thats sad

howd even get hired bro

[safe loom]

when optus went down he caused the speculation of it being a cyber attack

[sinful lark]

💀

[safe loom]

he’s had radio and tv experience for like 20 years but he hasn’t worked in the tech industry in like 20 years

he used to design websites in late 90s

now he taps daily about data breaches even though he’s just reading a teleprompter

it’s so annoying

just hire an actual cybersecurity consultant

they used the head of cybersecurity at monash like 4 days ago

do that again man!

[sinful lark]

they prolly just broke af bro

[safe loom]

he has like a 135k salary 😭

[sinful lark]

HOLY SHIT

im gonna do CS for unii

[safe loom]

basically makes what cybersecurity consultants actually make

[safe loom]

my VET is with fed uni

i’m learning cybersecurity, networking, programming and basic hardware

even though i know 3 of those subjects

[sinful lark]

yeah

im only doing cs

[safe loom]

but i get a certificate to say i do atleast

TREVOR DOESNT HAVE THAT

THE FUCKER

[sinful lark]

because i alrready know how to code and you make bank of it

[safe loom]

real

the class is basically tafe

but free since it’s vet

the whole point really is to just teach the industry then get you hired in the industry so you can drop school early

[sinful lark]

bru i gotta do everything here i gotta even get my atar and shit

to go to uni

dragged much

but

[safe loom]

vce vm unscored 🙏

i don’t need an atar

[sinful lark]

lucky ahh bro

why is

fuckin

librespeed so ass

it wont even let me get 5 mbps

[safe loom]

real 😭

[sinful lark]

it jsut gets stuck at just below 5

[little saffron]

hey there was an external app coded by someone to watch the logs right ?

btw i got fi ally sgs traffic again

[hollow vortex]

Yeah, and it's also been told not to talk about it any more by the mods

[little saffron]

oh sorry about that

i didnt know

[robust creek]

explain why and how when i was still using this app there was an update every week now that i left there are no updates at all xd

[upbeat shuttle]

christmas :D

[robust creek]

1 month christmas?

[upbeat shuttle]

it's been a year since the last update!

[robust creek]

woo

[upbeat shuttle]

~3 weeks

[robust creek]

100% if i were using the app there would be at least 2 updates on those 3 weeks

[upbeat shuttle]

1.2.6 - 28 Sep
1.2.7 - 12 Oct (14d)
1.2.8 - 26 Oct (14d)
1.2.9 - 2 Nov (7d)
1.3.1 - 1 Dec (29d)
1.3.3 - 12 Dec (11d)
present - 4 Jan; 23d without update

trend looks to be a bit more time between updates

[sinful lark]

Is it possible to have sgs client running on the same ISP?

Fuck

I mean Ip

Never mind got it to work

If I have 2 running do I get more static earnings?

[upbeat shuttle]

might do

[peak terrace]

yes in my experience you will

[sinful lark]

Okay thanks

I got 2 different gateways

So yeah

[upbeat shuttle]

which ones?

[sinful lark]

I got hyacinth and eucalyptus

Also the speed test requirements are so low

Here

[peak terrace]

psivewri approves

[sinful lark]

I'm gonnna make jackshit compared to you though

UK bandwidth is crazy

[peak terrace]

funny you say that

i haven't had sgs for about 48 hours now

[sinful lark]

Bro here it's instant

Also my status earnings did infact go up

[peak terrace]

it is sometimes instant for me, sometimes it is not and it takes a week

[sinful lark]

Static

[peak terrace]

at the moment i am just vibing with my containers

[sinful lark]

Brk I ain't ever getting no container

I've got a 1650

[peak terrace]

i have this plus a $0.10 container on my server

[sinful lark]

Is 10 cent the max cpu container?

[peak terrace]

i dunno

[sinful lark]

I remember

[peak terrace]

but i have never had a higher paying cpu container

[sinful lark]

I used to get 70 cent ones

When it first came out

[peak terrace]

this container is on an i5-3470 system

[sinful lark]

And I used it on a like 10 year old system

Wait not 10

But old 6th gen cpu

[upbeat shuttle]

it's not the max

[sinful lark]

I5-6400

[upbeat shuttle]

it's actually the minimum lol

[sinful lark]

What's the max?

I've never really gotten somewhat highpaying ones since it came out first

[upbeat shuttle]

could probably figure that out at https://salad.com/pricing

[peak terrace]

i got a $4 gpu container for like 6 hours one day but nothing as high as that since

[upbeat shuttle]

for 16 vCPUs and 30GB of RAM, that'd be $2.26 a day

[sinful lark]

Alright

I see

Hopefully I get a bw job

[upbeat shuttle]

you already kinda do

[peak terrace]

hopefully i get sgs at some point

[upbeat shuttle]

it's just bandwidth throughput that you're waiting for

[sinful lark]

Wdym? Like demand

Or someone to request?

[upbeat shuttle]

waiting for one of Salad's customers to need your bandwidth

[sinful lark]

I see

I mwan

At least if no one request my static pay is alrightb

I think it's 0.00600

Is what my static pay js gonna be

If I'm not wrong that'd like 60 cents a day

Of static pay

[peak terrace]

here in the UK it's $0.25 a day lmao

used to be $0.37

[sinful lark]

Nvm

It might be a bit kore

I think it might be 0.00800

Static

[sinful lark]

That's the same as what I get there

37 cents

[gritty kestrel]

any idea what this is?

[upbeat shuttle]

#français message

looks like it's just a CDN

looks like this CDN in particular, though, has been brought up before

i thought it sounded familiar lol

it looked like there was suspicious stuff hosted there

[sinful lark]

Ay is this alright ivd just been getting static earnings

[upbeat shuttle]

looks like it

or that could also be a container job

[sinful lark]

The static earnings Is 0.0670

[sinful lark]

Nope isn't I've got 2 sgs running

Just double static

I haven't even gotten no job

[upbeat shuttle]

could you send a screenshot with the axis thingy on the left

[sinful lark]

Ok

[peak terrace]

that is not static

at all

wayyy too much for static

it must be a container + bw at least

[sinful lark]

Nah my static is like 0.00350

[sinful lark]

Nope no container

It's just 2 sgs running

[peak terrace]

actually nevermind i misread the graph

[sinful lark]

This is static for one

[peak terrace]

that probably is static

[sinful lark]

Yeah

[upbeat shuttle]

yeah that's static

[sinful lark]

I haven't gotten a job kinda annoyed

[upbeat shuttle]

seems they also misread/mistyped lol

do you have jobs

two

[sinful lark]

What's the bet I get it running in 3 machines

[upbeat shuttle]

what you don't have is bandwidth throughput

[sinful lark]

Could you tell me whst throughput is again

[upbeat shuttle]

bandwidth being shared

'put through' your pc

[sinful lark]

Yeah I haven't gotten any todau

Just been connected to the node

[light isle]

i dont know if it was mentioned already but have you tried downloading glasswire and looking at what is using your network?

[sinful lark]

Yep

Only using 8.3kb

[dusty abyss]

Ma static is 0.0005

[hollow vortex]

I just got my 2nd laptop running sgs. Last time wasn't worth it. Doubt it still is. Will give it a shot over the weekend again.

[runic cargo]

Virtualization is not necessary for bw sharing or is it?

[upbeat shuttle]

virtualisation shouldn't be necessary for bandwidth sharing

[hollow vortex]

Is not necessary .

[sinful lark]

@upbeat shuttle

You think thus is a workload

Well I mean job

My usage didn't go up at all though

Network usage

[safe loom]

it is

static pay in australia is 30c for slower speeds 45c for higher speeds

[sinful lark]

I get alright static I get like 37 cents

Off static pay

[safe loom]

depending on the test for me, but i’ve been running bandeidth sharing for like 30 days now and have been from 0.70c - 2.45$

currently it’s like 1.15 a day

[sinful lark]

Aight I gotta get better internet my shits fucked

I'm only earning good static becusde I've got sgs on 2 machines

[runic cargo]

Do I have to download sgs client seperately?

[upbeat shuttle]

no

[sacred mason]

Im only getting earnings for a few hours a day and then its like my salad turns off for hours. any fix? nothing changed at 2pm for it to stop

[hollow vortex]

I just got the same gateway on both my laptops ! what ! thats a first

Didnt that that was possible. @upbeat shuttle

[frigid reef]

one of them will die soon

[gleaming shell]

youre getting jobs on both of them right?

[hollow vortex]

its a bummer, one did lol.

[frigid reef]

yeah as salad notices that there is 2 on one network meaning it will stop one of them

[gleaming shell]

damn

[hollow vortex]

yeah fr lol

[elfin grove]

Bro the new lib-speed update is so shit

[upbeat shuttle]

wdym

[peak terrace]

no sgs for 4 days

this is new

[hollow vortex]

just wondering why vmn never runs anymore lol not that i get containers

[upbeat shuttle]

Bandwidth Sharing FAQs + Troubleshooting

[hollow vortex]

Didnt ask

[upbeat shuttle]

:/

[peak terrace]

this interaction is very sodium chloride

[hollow vortex]

01-06 20:19:40.395 -05:00 [INF] {"level":"error","ts":1704590380.3944662,"caller":"ingress/api-client.go:141","msg":"Cannot connect: dial tcp 212.102.58.146:443: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused

log looks like nothing but this ehh.

[gleaming shell]

ive also gotten that before, but i reinstalled salad before so the log is gone

i think ive gotten that multiple times

[hollow vortex]

thats on the us sgs 2

[gleaming shell]

oh youre on us-2

[hollow vortex]

well this laptop is

[gleaming shell]

do you get any jobs on it?

[hollow vortex]

think other one took over daff

no, just those errors

[gleaming shell]

ah

[gleaming shell]

oh weird

[hollow vortex]

yeah, so idk. looks to be salad side anyway

[sinful lark]

@upbeat shuttle does sgs only use the max speed it tested and does it use more than that?

[lunar oar]

like seriously didn't got sgs file running on my pc......

[hollow vortex]

seems like only 1 sgs is working

[upbeat shuttle]

Salad only uses the librespeed result to check if you're above the minimum

It can use more than the result

[sinful lark]

aright

[sinful lark]

Also another question does more connections mean more earnings ?

[upbeat shuttle]

wdym exactly? like running more PCs? potentially
if you mean there being more connections, seen in glasswire or something, that doesn't really affect much. what matters is how much bandwidth is being shared

[sinful lark]

Im talking about like in glass wire its showing me that im sharing to like 5 ips

does that matter at all or no>

?

[upbeat shuttle]

read the second half of my message

[sinful lark]

ok

[naive lava]

bro what's the point of replying to a 3 month old msg xd

[upbeat shuttle]

3ms (mega second) latency

[shrewd terrace]

Bro I opened this after 3 months nd the a first thing I see was that

xD

[peak terrace]

this is canon for every bw sharing user

[peak terrace]

if it was mega the m would be capital, like mW (milliwatts) and MW (megawatts)

[peak terrace]

sgs takes ages to load but once it does load jobs come very quickly

this is my new observation

[upbeat shuttle]

sgs client shares bandwidth

[hollow vortex]

who asked

[peak terrace]

no one asked, they simply added onto my statement

[shrewd terrace]

yoooo

i didnt message in this server for so long

[sacred mason]

i just helped my mate set up bandwidth streaming on salad but hes getting no chopping hours at all and 0 pay for having it on for hours. Any fix?

[upbeat shuttle]

What country and speeds? Preferably speeds reported from the latest NDM log at C:\ProgramData\Salad\logs\ndm

[ember shore]

is that good? only bw

[stiff wedge]

Bro my sgs is still not here 😭

[stiff wedge]

Yuh

Very good upload

Very high earnings

[sacred mason]

if im in a low paying bandwidth job can i still be put into a high paying one

or do i have to finish the low paying job

[pulsar arrow]

woo

[gleaming shell]

havent seen you here in a while

[pulsar arrow]

yes

why are you on desktop, web and mobile at the same time

[pulsar arrow]

needed to feel something other than frsutration in my life so i deleted salad

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1128438432763482243.webp?size=48&name=ThumbsUp0&quality=lossless

[gleaming shell]

Damn lol you deleted it?

[pulsar arrow]

yes

[lone solstice]

Absolutely, Salad will dynamically change what jobs are running on your machine to pick the most profitable one. Let's say you have a container with $0.1 earning per hour, and a $0.15 per hour job comes online in our system, if no one else claims it then you'll get it
There are more intricacies to that system but that's the general function

[sacred mason]

okay thanks for the help

[sinful lark]

Can you get connections out of your bw sharing country?

Because I'm bw sharing in australia and got a connection to the US

[upbeat shuttle]

Yeah that doesn't sound too strange

[sacred mason]

how did u check that

[sacred mason]

Will using another bandwidth sharing app reduce my chances for bandwidth jobs

[upbeat shuttle]

if they start fighting for bandwidth, that's probably not great

[sinful lark]

Glass wire

[sacred mason]

how does that work

[sinful lark]

It just shows you the ips you're connected too I guess

And hiw much bw is being jsed

[sacred mason]

ok thanks

how many bandwidth jobs do people get in a day then

[sacred mason]

I havent been given a bandwidth job all day is that normal

[ember shore]

yep

last week i had 3 days without any bw job

[charred creek]

guys whats the minimum requirement for bw in india

[safe loom]

10mbps down 10mbps up

[charred creek]

i have 160 mbps still i got nothing today

[safe loom]

demand will always fluctuate

and currently india's demand has lowered

so i just to stay patient and just hope for high demand

[charred creek]

when?

[safe loom]

users have reported in the last week or 2 that they aren't earning as much as before if at all

[charred creek]

oh ok

[gleaming shell]

Someone should make a dictionary of all the SGS errors and show what they mean

[dusty abyss]

One day i got bw with 6 mbps download and upload

[peak terrace]

in logs?

[safe loom]

thats called reverse engineering

and thats against tos 💀

if you knew what all errors were you'd probably know how sgs works aswell

[upbeat shuttle]

huh

no

we literally already have it

it's the pinned troubleshooting guides

[safe loom]

ok then tell me what the spinner does, and why it fails to handshake :)

alternatively users could leave their logs alone and just let it run like it was intended

[upbeat shuttle]

brœther we are on about basic bandwidth sharing troubleshooting

for more advanced issues like that, we'd direct people to official support

[safe loom]

silent said

Someone should make a dictionary of all the SGS errors and show what they mean

of all

if he specified common errors yeah thats a no brainer thats a cerebronto

but he said all

[light isle]

someone should just fix it (idk what) but just fix it 💀

[charred creek]

guys pls help me im from india i had salad on from yesterday night and even now but i got no sgs and no earning

[hollow vortex]

#1021501189977813002 message

[upbeat shuttle]

I've heard others in India have had trouble getting bandwidth sharing jobs lately as well

could just be due to less demand from Salad's customers / more Salad users

this is not to be unexpected

[charred creek]

ok but u have any idea that when will indians get good demand and if i switch salad on and off will it affect the chances of getting sgs?

[upbeat shuttle]

just keep it running

you could read through the pinned posts here anyways

[charred creek]

and increasing the net speed will help me?

i have 200mbps plan but its 160 upload in the ndm

[charred creek]

should i increase my plan

[hollow vortex]

I wouldnt for salad, does not mean it will give you more or increase your chances.

[hard moon]

hyey

i am getting an error

[hollow vortex]

Ok

[hard moon]

this is thee erro

r

plls helpp

[hollow vortex]

Possibly bugged.

[hard moon]

how to fix'

[hollow vortex]

It's fine as long as you have the space .

[hard moon]

okk

[sinful lark]

Is running sgs on 3 PC's possible?

[shrewd terrace]

yeah bt hard to get job or ur isp to handle

[hollow vortex]

I have fiber , ez

[shrewd terrace]

Then it depends on bw job availability

[sinful lark]

Yeah I don't mind if I get static from it

Fine with me

[robust creek]

pay higher and i come back, easy xd

[shrewd terrace]

gl getting a container in italy

[robust creek]

they talking about gpu containers

i have 64gb ram with 3070ti, they would love to get that, but they pay too low and as i already said i won't give them access

the minimum i accept for it to be running 24/7 just for them is 5$ a day

[shrewd terrace]

getting 2.2 daily with a 4090

[robust creek]

lol uninstall it it's useless

[shrewd terrace]

im not using the gpu anyway

[robust creek]

me yes i wanna use for 3d modeling and gaming

and it was lagging hard while keeping salad running

[shrewd terrace]

sucks

[robust creek]

they was using 100% gpu for 0,70$ a day

tf

[shrewd terrace]

we just live in the wrong country xd

[robust creek]

they don't care where you live if we talk about hardware

if talk about bandwidth then yes, very wrong country

[shrewd terrace]

talking abt bw jobs

[shrewd terrace]

def "ciro esposito" not gonna use salad

[robust creek]

it's 99% of the time static pay here if you have gigabit connection

if you have less than 100mbps upload then you get 0 from bw

[shrewd terrace]

we just wait and pray i guess

[robust creek]

i uninstalled directly

i'm here waiting for them to ping me saying they increased back static pay

[shrewd terrace]

makes sense

[upbeat shuttle]

well they're not going to double gpu container earnings (thus doubling prices for customers) out of nowhere
and they can't do anything about bandwidth sharing, that's on their customers

[robust creek]

why make customers pay higher? salad just needs make less revenue with our hardware

they sell same price

[upbeat shuttle]

huh

[civic fern]

1.9 daily with a 3060

skill issue

[shrewd terrace]

im gonna touch you

[civic fern]

no

[shrewd terrace]

[civic fern]

also nice pfp

[shrewd terrace]

me in class raising hand like a nerd

ye teacher i know the answer

[civic fern]

🤓

[shrewd terrace]

👆

[shrewd terrace]

gg u talked

[civic fern]

HAHAHAAAHAHA

nice

[unkempt loom]

wait actually wat

is that an email they legit send

? blud what

[robust creek]

yes

[unkempt loom]

lmao

more like begging-

[robust creek]

begging is useless, they just need to pay higher and users comes by themselves.

[hollow vortex]

Automated email

[unkempt loom]

facts

i have observed one thing

dont get me wrong

but what they use to pay $/gb was better way back then but now it not better, rather less, i have that feeling

[robust creek]

really?

it was something like 0,005$ per GB last time i checked

and had higher static pay

[hollow vortex]

Where cause in US was .003 per gb

[robust creek]

italy

[unkempt loom]

man i feel it is way less today\

[hollow vortex]

Haven't did the math lately to see if it went up since .

[unkempt loom]

1000gb doesn't make u 5%

[unkempt loom]

5$

[unkempt loom]

before it used to

[robust creek]

i uninstalled salad a month ago, i don't know how things are working right now, i'm still here just because i hope they say they will pay higher back again

[unkempt loom]

yeah

i am keep hope rn

and amma continue for the time being

[robust creek]

this is what happened :

i joined, static pay was 0,80$ a day
after 3 months they decreased it to 0,50$
now is 0,25$
what's next? 0,05?

[hollow vortex]

Maybe , but remember they don't have to pay you static

Just those who do get it should be lucky and thankful even if it's not much

[robust creek]

i was keeping my pc turned on 24/7 just for salad, of course i wanted to get paid, italy has close to 0 traffic, it lives by static pay basically

[peak terrace]

what is the contents of this email

[robust creek]

and the "keep it turned on only when you need it and use salad anyways" doesn't work in italy, because sgs takes 6-8 hours to start, i would earn 0,05 a day probably

[robust creek]

"come back chopping we have containers compatible with your hardware"

[peak terrace]

they are getting desperate

not

[robust creek]

if they pay me fairly of course i come back, but i would disable it when i need the card

5$ a day minimum if they want to use it 100% constantly

a 10 minutes survey paying higher than an entire week of salad xD you see how bad it is now

[peak terrace]

i don't make anything from surveys anymore

i gave up

[robust creek]

depends what service you use

this one is amazing, but they closed signups

[peak terrace]

all good things come to an end

[shrewd terrace]

gg

[robust creek]

2 years approx

but 2 years not constantly stay there and do surveys

[shrewd terrace]

damn

[peak terrace]

qmee used to be good

it's shite now

[robust creek]

rippe

change

[peak terrace]

attapoll as well

[robust creek]

then i'm glad that the one i use closed signups xD

probably those ones died because of too many people joining

[shrewd terrace]

is it that bad

[peak terrace]

yes

[shrewd terrace]

:(

[robust creek]

i can tell you the site anyways because it won't let you signup anyways

i use prolific

[peak terrace]

i know about prolific

[robust creek]

you're not inside?

[peak terrace]

i am outside

[shrewd terrace]

[robust creek]

rip

i got lucky apparently because i joined almost on the end, i invited a friend and he wasn't able to join anymore after only 2 weeks i joined

[silk ice]

i forgot about this

thanks for reminding me

[shrewd terrace]

[flint galleon]

are they ever gonna fix uae

[stiff wedge]

t

[charred creek]

same no earning in india bw

[idle quiver]

[winter latch]

1 MONTH NO EARNINGS WITH BANDWIDTH IN INDIA

[dim burrow]

What is this website?

[robust creek]

prolific

[thorny imp]

Have yall noticed a lower static pay?

wasnt it 0,0025

[idle quiver]

i guess it depends on region

becuase it's 0.00125 for me ;-;

[thorny imp]

oof

[robust creek]

LOL

uninstall that crap bruh they need learn

pay lower = people leave

[thorny imp]

Waiting for 4070 ti super to drop, expecting 2-4 dollars from it

If not then i swap to prolific

[robust creek]

that's crap

there are surveys that pays me 10£ and needs 30 minutes to be done

yes it's not passive and you need to do stuff, but the point is not the "i dont wanna do anything" but is actually getting paid by someone in exchange of something (getting paid good)

i tried to offer to salad an italian translation for their website and app, they refused

wtf?

and getting a job here where i live is near impossible

[thorny imp]

Salad is high-key stealing when it comes to BW, altough its better than stuff like honeygain

Or pawns

[robust creek]

i'm using prolific money to help parents pay bills, with salad right now you can't even think about buying 1 pizza a month with what they give you in italy!?

they basically want your hardware for lower and lower price, no salad you won't have my 64gb ram with 3070ti for 0,70 a day and you won't get my gigabit connection for 0,20$ a day

[robust creek]

i dont use those 2 either

[hollow vortex]

Intentions of salad i think are " if you leave your pc on why not leave salad run " not the other way around " leave your pc on and complain and whine , because its not really worth doing so " So if you dont leave your pc on - then simple dont use salad and you wont have a chance to make any money by doing nothing.

[robust creek]

i am not doing nothing

i am selling my resources to a company that will resell it for 4x more

[hollow vortex]

these options are here for a reason, Use them. " pause until idle " but however you dont . you just want to complain and whine .

[hollow vortex]

Its a business , Any busines is out to make money. Where have you been your whole life ?

[robust creek]

and as i said doesn't make any sense the "keep your pc on only when you are using it" because sgs takes 6-7 hours to start, are lost hours

[robust creek]

why should i keep my pc turned on 24/7 if produces noise and heat and is not even worth keeping it on

[hollow vortex]

It may take you , in your location 6-7 hrs. mine starts in 5 mins . So you cant say " all "

[robust creek]

they were paying good earlier

[robust creek]

i am referring as an italian user

[hollow vortex]

Salad doesnt say " keep your pc on " they're not forcing you to.

[robust creek]

uk people earns 999999999999$ a day

[robust creek]

sgs taking much to start seems a silent way of forcing

[hollow vortex]

well if its for you, or your country, nodes could be full , and not much demand. I mean theyre reasons.

[robust creek]

by keeping my pc on 24/7 i would earn 6$ a month right now, with the payout fees would become 5 because fees are exagerrately high, by using salad on those few hours that sgs started, i would earn maybe 1-2, what's the point? i prefer earn 0 and know there is not a company making millions thanks by MY resources

[hollow vortex]

I just dont see the point of coming in here once a month or , to continue to complain. 1. Write salad support some constructive feed back 2. Dont use salad 3. you'll stop wasting time complaining in there discord and get no where.

[robust creek]

1: i did a review, they just said "we are sorry but we won't change it back" or something similar than that in a more relaxed and professional way
2: i'm not using it from more than a month now
3: i don't waste much time, i'm waiting for my food to be ready and cooked, have nothing else to do rn xd

[hollow vortex]

Cool, you dont want to run salad cause it takes to long for you, and when you get a container you feel its not worth it . great. No one is forcing you to use salad. Cya .

[robust creek]

when food is ready i'll be gone for now

[upbeat shuttle]

how lol

[upbeat shuttle]

salad doesn't take anywhere near a 75% cut lol

[upbeat shuttle]

it's all in your head

[thorny imp]

They keep lowering the fucking wages to stupid low amounts, the only way to actually earn anything is to own a 4080 or above

[upbeat shuttle]

It's more like a 3060 and above

even some higher-end 20 series GPUs are getting better demand now

[hollow vortex]

Great , he was quiet -_-

[upbeat shuttle]

?

[thorny imp]

?

[peak terrace]

sgs has not errored out in a very long time, this is good

[sinful lark]

Where in logs did you see if sgs errored out

[peak terrace]

older example

[sinful lark]

Kk

Ima check

Because mine hasn't started in 2 days

[peak terrace]

this will only show if sgs is running and you have bw jobs

there are different errors for different things

[sinful lark]

hmm okay

is this a error btw?

or nah

[peak terrace]

not an error

just a heartbeat

shows sgs is running but there are no jobs

[sinful lark]

would restarting my router help me to get sgs?

becasue i got it instantly for the last 2 days

i mean

[peak terrace]

if you have a low quality IP yeah

[sinful lark]

before the last 2 days

[peak terrace]

otherwise just wait

it took me liek 5 days to get it at some point

[sinful lark]

now i just dont get it instantly

[sinful lark]

how do i check my ip score

[peak terrace]

"Your IP should ideally have a good quality rating.

You can use websites like https://www.ipqualityscore.com/ip-reputation-check to see your IP quality rating. If you do have a bad quality IP, you might be able to refresh it by turning off your router for like 10 minutes, then turning it back on."

[sinful lark]

is this okay?

[peak terrace]

yes

this means you just wait

[sinful lark]

guess theres just no demand thern

🤷

[hollow vortex]

got the same thing on sgs 2 in the us lol

[waxen pollen]

whats with salad auto forcing an update?

[upbeat shuttle]

Salad shouldn't auto update

if it does, that's a bug, and should probably be reported to #official-support

[waxen pollen]

Yeah Salad had updated around 10.30 last night and there was an accept installation screen waiting for me.

[sacred mason]

I havent had a bandwidth job in the past 5 days am i doing something wrong

[peak terrace]

nah you're just a salad user

[unkempt loom]

i actually just felt that salad pays $/gb depending on regions, in some regions it is buffed while some are starving idk but this is what I feel

[thorny imp]

How's UK bandwidth rn, heard that it is crazy

[peak terrace]

pretty good

my internet has been saturated with sgs for a week

[thorny imp]

how much per 15min?

[peak terrace]

like $0.03

[thorny imp]

Damn, sweden only has like 0.006-0.012 💀

[waxen pollen]

Mine was great up until around 10.30 last night when salad bugged out and forced an update on me and i lost my $9 a day earnings

[upbeat shuttle]

yeah, I think that's the case

[sacred mason]

anyone not got any bandwidth jobs in ages?

[sinful lark]

In 2 days

I haven't gotten one

Wait are the speed requirements in Australia 5/5

[upbeat shuttle]

probably like 10/10

[sinful lark]

Really everytime I've gotten it start at 5/5

Well download higher but upload is 5

And cyph said min was 5/5

[peak terrace]

i have had bw jobs all week

[sacred mason]

where bouts are u and whats your wifi like

[peak terrace]

uk

150 down 30 up

and i use ethernet not wifi

[sacred mason]

i got 500mb ethernet but when salad does the bandwidth test when i load up the end number is only 122

fixed it got 500 down 150 up just gotta wait for bandwidth jobs

[cinder prawn]

thats racist bro

💀

[rocky orbit]

Should have said Aussie 🤮 or Australians 🤮

[gleaming wraith]

gpt > salad

salad is more deceiving than lady macbeth

[light isle]

you can say that

[upbeat shuttle]

??

[peak terrace]

found the gcse english student

[gleaming wraith]

aqa english innit

[peak terrace]

[sinful lark]

Why did static pay decrease in au

[peak terrace]

it also decreased in the UK

used to be $0.25/day

it is now $0.20/day

[shrewd terrace]

[gleaming shell]

Static pay is gone in the us I think

Though that was a while ago

[sinful lark]

Yeah sMe here

[sinful lark]

it went from 35 cents to like 20

cpu container is more common than sgs for me

4 cpu containers in 4days

[gleaming shell]

cpu containers are super rare for me

[sinful lark]

Really i've been getting them so constantly

but only yhr 10 cent ones

so its kinda ass

i just want my band with back

i had sgs running for like 10 hours then my power cut out

and it stopped

[lunar oar]

idk maybe yeah

[lunar oar]

specs??

[sinful lark]

i5-11300H

[sinful lark]

Blud 5th cpu contain4r in 4 days no sgs tough

[upbeat shuttle]

^^

[safe loom]

he’s not wrong ozua

this is genuinely bad mobile design

you have to go to “Post settings” now

[light isle]

wild

[sinful lark]

Will bw sharing work on a cellular connection

[upbeat shuttle]

I wouldn't really recommend it

[sinful lark]

Yeah but would it work?

[upbeat shuttle]

no idea

[sinful lark]

Cause it says it'll only work residential

But I've gotten it to work on my data before

[upbeat shuttle]

I'd probably guess it wouldn't work well

[upbeat shuttle]

looks like i'm not updating the app any time soon then

[safe loom]

wasn’t like this a few days ago

so idk what the fuck their deal is

it used to just be tap the thread name then pinned messages

like it is for regular channels

wait

they replaced it with threads

it’s in the settings there too

asswipes

[sinful lark]

Yo cyph is the mom requirements dstill 5/5 here?

[sinful lark]

Catch ain't that the online store that sells shit for cheap

[safe loom]

yeah

Why bro 😢

I've got a data bank too

[safe loom]

i don’t

but i don’t really need it

[sinful lark]

Alright fair enough

[sinful lark]

aye did you have sgs today

also did they decrease the static pay for you or was that just me

[safe loom]

this is the speed

usually it’s like double this

but idc cause i use it to send discord messages and stream spotify

[sinful lark]

yeah i get around the same

but yeah its fine

[safe loom]

no didn’t have salad running

[sinful lark]

hmm alright

ive been getting like 0 demand

sgs wont even start up

[safe loom]

[sinful lark]

damn

my pc also kinda ass
