Now customers find the problem as follows.
the download performance of Buffalo BitTorrent Download Manager, part of Buffalo LinkStation features, is very very slow. I just made a comparison downloading a movie (mp4 format) file of 816MB with this Buffalo Download Manager and a standard "Vuze BitTorrent Client" on my Macbook:
Performance Comparison:
- Buffalo BitTorrent" 20+ hours !!
=> even stopping sometimes to download in between, had to 'Force Start' to continue downloading !
- Vuze Client: 26 minutes for complete download of 816MB
I'm using for both downloads (at the same time) the same Internet configuration, a 14MB/s by TrueOnline Services. Download performance tools confirm the download speed capacity of 12-17MB/s constantly !!
Configuration:
Buffalo: LinkStation LS-CHL-V2 Series
Capacity: 1TB (1560GB in use of 1847GB => 84.4%)
Firmware: 1.68
GUI: NAS Navigator2, Version 2.76
Computer: Apple Macbook
OS: 10.9.4
BitTorrent: Vuze Version 5.4.0.0
Attached the screenshots of my Buffalo BitTorrent Download Manager configuration for your review.
Appreciate your technical review of this configuration and technical advise how to improve the (unacceptable) download performance !!
