I use VPN One Click. But every time I use it, the torrent app closes (UUTORENT) . As soon as I close the VPN service, the torrent app opens again. What is happening here? Is there a VPN service that is torrent friendly. I only need to use it for a month so… I’d like one that has a reasonable short term rate. Thanks .
I just answered that question here: http://www.forumosa.com/taiwan/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=133805&start=10#p1639094
I’ve never had any problems with astrill. Works great in China.
I use expressvpn. Doesn’t noticeably impact torrent speeds.
AirVPN Torrent are welcome 
The best VPN I used was PIA (Private Internet Access), most importantly I can watch live sport streaming which is amazing considering most VPN will slow down your internet connection. I can only recommend this one, and yes it works with torrent as well.
Astrill says they are the best VPN for bittorrenting so they are ‘Torrent Friendly’ but I haven’t tried it yet.
Is there any need for a VPN when torrent in Taiwan?
I would recommend Astrill vpn, been using it for a while now and pretty good.
Been using PIA here, seem pretty fast but I’m not a huge downloader of stuff!
Bar none, the best VPN at the moment is EXPRESS VPN. As I type this message I am torrenting using utorrent.
I’m sure the others that were recommended are probably okay. I pay yearly, but I think express is about 10 usd a month.
What speed is your internet connection and what DL speed do you get torrenting with EXPRESS?
I am currently in Mainland China. My connection fluctuates a lot throughout the day depending on the bandwidth usage in my building. However, the speed at which I torrent can still reach 500 kb/s to as much as 1 mb/s. It depends more on the seeds.
It does throttle the DL speed a bit. If I torrent without the VPN it’s clearly faster.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a VPN that will allow full google access in PRC?
I use NordVPN, but don’t torrent. Cheap price for 3 years on a monthly basis.
Question, as we recently got a stop downloading warning from our provider. Does this hide the IP, or if they really want to find you, they will?
Please excuse vast ignorance. ![]()
What is the warning specifically?
Is it warning about the download amount? Or a non-specific warning?
And, what are your typical download amounts? And this is Taiwan or other country’s ISP?
Some ISPs in the U.S. say they allow “unlimited” downloading, but then actually state they have a breakpoint of like 1TB per month, at which they actually start charging a fee. I guess they figure most people won’t surf/dowload stuff over 1TB per month.
How did you receive a warning? Email or phone call or something?
I’m in the US, NY. I believe it said our data shows that we were downloading illegal content…movies most likely.
Email.
