Hey @websquadza, do you think it is possible to setup a mirror for a few linux distros; like Ubuntu, Debian, Kali, ParrotOS? (The last two desperately need a ZA mirror lol)

Does it have to be connected direct to CPE for Vuma to monitor?
This is from my router:
They don’t accept router tests. So they check the MACs against known routers then ask to repeat.
Sounds like a great idea!

Would you mind running a few tests for us? Starting with this one? How many connections have you set IDM to use? Default I think is set to 16... downloads>options>connection... if you not familiar...
TIA

hetzner.de isn't a local site, so would only get 200Mbit on it (though the download does fluctuate between 20 and 40). IDM Defaults to 8, and I've found increasing that causes more issues than downloading faster.

Umm, You mind if i steal this? Want to use it as my wallpaper
xD@websquadza could be interesting to look at setting up a game cache server for platforms like origin and uplay, where the platforms don't have a presence in South Africa

Yeah, I'm most intrigued by the 200Mbps rate limit cause all indications are that it isn't. I would expect that download to plateau at 30MB/s. On my gigabit account, that isn't rate limited, I don't get much more than 45MB/s, average is probably around 25MB/s.
You Vuma aerial or trenched?
And could I ask you to run the download with just 1 connection?

Over wifi, close enough?

Quite surprised that this isn’t served up by their local cache. We’re peered with Valve locally. Will look into caching this as well.
Steam is fine for most things, averaging 50MB/s.
Was talking about Origin (EA's platform), and uPlay (Ubisoft's platform), which are independent of valve and don't have local presences.

Xs? Router? That's the best I've seen over wifi on a mobile device.
