Upload Speeds
July 26th, 2016
You can only upload as fast as your net connection allows combined with the speed at which the host can accept.
What is your advertised connection speed on your net plan?
50 mb?
That would be the download speed. Upload is normally much lower.
For example, a Broadband 50 plan offered by a company in Canada has a 50Mbps download but only a 3Mbps upload.
50Mbps = 6.25 MB/s; the upload is only 375k/s (or so)
The guys doing the significant uploads are not using a residential connection and are transferring between ftp servers.
So for you (say if at 3Mpbs), you get about 1MB per minute. If your upload is 1000MB, that is about 1000 minutes or 17 hours or so give or take.
Someone using a T3 line, the speed is about 1.6MB/s so that same 1000MB file would only take 625 seconds or 10 minutes. It would likely take longer as the host speed would become a factor.
There is an big difference in 50 Mbps vs 50MB/s brother. Hope they come to the US… My best speed atm is only about 16.5MB/s.
rick already explained the conversion. If your in the US and using Comcast. Your plan would be 50/10
Roughly 6.25MB/s in download and 1.25MB/s in upload. Which mean you can upload about 4.5GB/hour. Give or take. As for those who upload about an hour after being released. Let me tell you a secrete. They dont download it to their computer and then split or re-rar it its done on servers which is very fast. It can unrar and re-rar it with password of my choice and upload it to multiple host. Extremely fast
Gotcha. So is there a way I can do it the way they do it?
Get a T3 line? If you have an extra $3000+ per month to spend (plus the cost of equipment). A T3 line is generally an aggregation of 28 T1 circuits.
The simple answer is, “not going to happen at home”.
EDIT: even if you had the $ to spend, it is unlikely an ISP has the physical lines in a residential area to offer the service to you. You could pay them to upgrade their lines to the area, but YIKES, I wouldn’t even contemplate that if I had just won the big loto prize lol
So ppl like leader and hd3d do this?
^nope, they use servers.
And what are examples of that?
Google is your friend.
they don’t have good home connections most of them so they use servers to do their downloading and uploading.
@chip: Umm.. a server is connected to something and it’s not a home internet package that is used
@chip: Umm.. a server is connected to something and it's not a home internet package that is used
Thats basically what he said no?
An server is what people use. It will download and then uncompressed and compress it again with what ever option you want like making 20 rars instead of the original 10 rars. Add your own password and such. Then the server will uploaded it to multiple host.
@chip: Umm.. a server is connected to something and it's not a home internet package that is used
??? that’s what I said, read it again.
I think we are talking cross-purposes:
a server is connected to the net using some type of connection. You can have a server at home and will still be limited to your slow upload speed. It is necessary for the server to be connected via a ‘commercial line’ (for the lack of a better term) to get fast uploads.
I think what you are speaking of is related to when you get the file on the server with the fast upload. Upload one file and then split there. Frankly, I see no benefit other than maybe organization of doing this after or before the upload.
The key is getting it to a server with the upload bandwidth. If you don’t have that ability, then it doesn’t matter how fast the server is .. your upload will always be maxed at the slowest point in the process.
..sigh.
obviously it’s not a server at home, really? lol.
it’s a server that is connected to a high speed network to use whilst downloading and for uploading. again:
they don't have good home connections most of them so they use servers to do their downloading and uploading.
where did I say it’s a server at home????
no more.
And how do you get your file to the server Chip? That is my point. They don’t start at home; they start with a computer (be it a server or just any computer that has the upload bandwidth.
So back to the OP, he is at home with no access to any high speed connection, alas, impossible to upload the same way as if you will, ‘the big boys’.
This means that you are left to redistribute what has already been uploaded (or be patient on your own upload). Once a file is up on the file host, you can transfer (if you have a premium account and depending on the host) another upload over to your own library and then go from there.

^are you trolling or being serious?
that's the best part of a server, you don't need to upload to it. the "server" aka RDP or whatever you want to ~ censored ~ call it does all the uploading and downloading for you.
how do you think these "encoders" release bluray remuxes? they use a server aka RDP or whatever you want to ~ censored ~ call it and encode and upload the release and spread it.
like I said to the OP when HE asked what other uploaders done; they use a server aka RDP or whatever you want to ~ censored ~ call it and this does the downloading/encoding/uploading for them on a high speed connection thus you don't need your home connection to download/encode/upload.
we're just going off topic. but you're not right, end of.
OP: if you're having trouble uploading big files, get yourself a high speed server aka RDP or whatever you want to ~ censored ~ call it and you'll be sorted.
you can get them for free if you know the right people otherwise it'll cost money.
see ya.
You don't need to upload it ...
WOW. It needs to get from your computer to the net – this is called an upload. Whether you are on a server, a computer, or using a carrier pidgeon, you upload a file through your connection whatever it may be. If his connection is the normal home package, the speed is limited to that upload bandwidth – it doesn’t matter how you connect, the bandwidth available is the bandwidth available. Period.
The guys that use “servers” have their servers connected through a high-speed commercial service, not a home one. Diagram:
your computer (whatever it maybe) ==connection to net==> file host / server ==T3 lines => other file hosts
The first connection is the issue … getting it to a server. The big uploaders have a T3 (or the like) ==connection to net==. Our OP does not.

now I know you're trolling. sorry to say but MOTM? lol.
yes, you read correct; you don’t need to upload to a server/rdp. it does all the DOWNLOADING AND UPLOADING for you. all you need is an Internet connection to connect to it.
I shall say no more. Post text hidden —
the OP asked how leader etc done it, I answered. end of. you’re the one making a big issue about it.
Whats the best way to get it to a server?
The only way is to upload it somehow. That is where the upload bandwidth problem comes into play for you. Without direct access to a computer/server that has a fast upload speed, you always have the problem of getting the file to a server with the upload bandwidth.
The “server” which is not connect to your home connection in anyway. It will download the files REMOTELY and store it REMOTELY then you can do all kind of things. Like giving it command to uncompressed the rar, delete whatever file, re compress with how many .rar you want to have and with your own password then upload it using the server speed which at LEAST 10 fold your home connection. etc etc.
Its not an server you host yourself on your own residential or commercial connection. Both have ~ Lovely ~ speed. Have you ever use an seedbox for torrent? If you do then its basically the same process but with tons of more option. You can have an dialup connection and be able to download/change the rars option/upload within an hour or so.

this.
don’t listen to others, they’re just confusing you.
you don’t upload to the “server” it does everything for you.
: Just to clarify for the OP, using a remote server works when the file is already on a server someplace. Redistribute a file that is already on a file host:
So if you want to redistribute a file that is already on a file host, you download at the enhanced speeds provided by the host directly into your host account and from there, you can send that file around in a hurry. So if you are redistributing a file, the OP just needs a premium account that allows remote downloading and voila!
Your original upload
If it is an original file on your computer, that file needs to get uploaded first to a file host …. this part takes the time. So using the torrent analogy, this would be like the first person downloading a file from the seeder. The downloader’s speed would be limited to the upload speed of the seeder, until more downloaders come on board.
Once the file has been uploaded, you then use your file host account to upload it to other hosts – at the server to server speed.
This is not a case of Redistribute. It does the same thing as you would have if you download the files/rars to your own pc.
The OP has to download the files from somewhere. Its not like he is going out and buy an movie then rip it himself to upload. He’s asking why so many people does it extremely fast and his is not. Just here to explain why most of the uploader get their files up so fast. Also you are wrong about the redistribute part. Remote download is DIFFERENT from an “server”. All those host premium remote download or what it call.. All it does is “convert” an link to link the OP can use and/or distribute. But we are talking about downloading for example… 10 rars with as rar password. Plug in the setting. It will unrar then re-rar in to 15 rars or 20 rars etc with an different password. Making it completely different from what was download. You can also delete and add content inside an rar
I think I understand what your saying but its not the same.
Anyways. @OP good luck bro. Google and search brother. You will learn a lots.
We are on the same page … my explanation could have been clearer.
If we scroll all the way back to the original post, “So I am uploading a movie (2 parts after split)”, the OP is not ‘redistributing’ but is trying to get the files up for the first time.
From what I am understand this is a software I have to purchase?
No software is needed; however, you do need to purchase an account with a host; and it has to be one that looks the other way when it comes to the type of files you have stored.
End user agreements are pretty clear that if you are using their service for illegal content, your service will be terminated without refund. The key is to use one, like I said, that just doesn’t look.
Any recommendations?
