Locked How seedbonus is being measured

[ki_2004]

Hi,
I was just wondering how seedbonus is being measured when my IP changes.
my isp assigns me dynamic ip and i may also be behind NAT.
so while i am seeding if ip changes or I go behind NAT due to isp's ip allocation method beyond my scope, how is the system corretly calculating seedbonus?
if this is already answered somewhere do point me to that thread.
Thanks

Thanks.. I am explicitly talking about either ip changing due to isp dynamic allocation or me going behind NAT. Both are possible with my isp and effectively it means the ip with which i downloaded is not same as the one i seed. If this comes under isp issues, then it's ok. I have no knowledge of underlying torrent client's reporting methods.

Actually, it allocates to your account, irrespective of the IP assigned. When you download a torrent file, you get an algorithmically assigned hash for that file against your account_id. That means, that file and its corresponding server connection to teamos tracker against your ID, is calculated, and not via any IP. That is why multiple IPs are allowed. Of course, it also calculates the data sent and received as usual.
Hope, this explains the logic and answers your question, mate?

Oh great! Thanks for a clear explanation. This understanding was missing at my end and I was somehow assuming that it's ip based. Perfect. Thanks a lot!

torrent is bonded with your account no matter where u seed which computer u seed or which ip u use to seed u always get the bonus

Do mark "solution" to my answer, if that answers and resolves for you, mate.

Yes, done. In fact you may consider locking this thread now. It's clear!

How come that was solution?
That is clear fact how torrenting works!

It's a clear fact for those who know how torrenting works. I was completely unaware of this underlying concept. Hence for me now I got the clarity.
So far all I did is run torrent file and an app like bittorrent would do the rest. I did not know how it actually works.
This linkage with account is a new concept to me. Thanks

hi, i also need clarity on this, i always seed 3 days minimum as i was tolds or more but how is my ratio dropping?
