Downloading torrent with hotel wifi

You will be downloading a file from your Google account while Offcloud will download the torrent file to your Google account. For example, I have purchased GB space with Google Drive and I use it to backup all my photos, documents, work related files and everything else except movies and videos.

I have installed Google Drive in my computer but the folder I have selected is the one of my external hard drive 1TB capacity. This is because I want my external hard drive to contain all the documents and files, just in case I may need them to use it on another computer. Now decide the location of the folder which will sync with Google drive.

What is the total amount of files you will be downloading. However, if you would be downloading lots of movies, games, songs and other things on a regular basis, then you should choose the external hard disk. Once you have setup Google Drive in your computer, create a free account with Offcloud.

One Google Drive is authenticated, you are ready to roll. You will be able to see the status of the download in your Offcloud account, when it completes. It usually takes around 8 hours for the download to finish and the file to appear in your Google Drive account. Once the download has finished, just open your Google Drive account and you should be able to see that file there.

The last step is to simply let the Google Drive client run in your office, school or workplace where you want to download the file. I tested it out in my workplace and it took me less than an hour to download a movie file from Google Drive to my external hard drive through Google Drive sync. The premium plan of Offcloud has no such limitations on file count and bandwidth usage. You can not fake transfer volume or number of connections.

You could rent a server for Bittorrent and just download to your hotel laptop. Otherwise, you might try another hotel, or look for a Starbucks with internet access. You really should limit your global connections to something very small like 10 or 20, to minimize your negative impact on a shared network. And also limit upload speed max equal or below your download speed max, as it's likely the upload side that is the real bottleneck on the hotel's internet.

In the past, I've gotten a few hours of unsquelched downloading before service was cut off I can live with that. Start new topic. Recommended Posts. Posted July 11, Thanks in advance!
