Bandwidth usage by me ….

NeXoSE

I don’t know if is right to talk this “Administer Related” here, and im really don’t know what happen.

Worfeh just send me a message to ask me why i have allmost 10gb bandwidth usage on TSP,Thanks for give this chance to explain, but i have not do any badly (Like DoS, Bandwidth attack) things.

Here is something i got from my Routers and Computer, hope this can provide some useful information to help i know what happen.

AND I ENSURE, I HAVE NO FABRICATE THE FOLLOWING INFO

And Sorry, all unenglish words is Chinese, You can let other people who know Chinese to see the evidences.

hmm did your router stop working somewhere on saturday?
You had to reboot the thing because you couldn’t access the internet anymore?

Let met post something from our data base.

lid uid ip_address timesdl datedl

23 0.0.0.0 1 2009 19th August

727 0.0.0.0 2 2009 21st August

728 0.0.0.0 270 2009 21st August

729 0.0.0.0 1 2009 21st August

990 0.0.0.0 14985 2009 23rd August

Ok, the “lid” is the download.
the “uid” is the user id wich is you.
“timesdl” is the times your IP downloaded it.
“ip_address” should be simple… and i added a date.

lid 728 is download name: FactionEditor1_2.zip
lid 990 is download name: FLScan_1.3_Installer.msi

Im not saying you did it, its just that this IP hits a lot of time, and we got a lil worried.

I do want to believe you, and we do believe you for now. But i realy think you should check your security a bit.

Can you might delete the IPs from the public and send him a PM about those?
IPs in public forums may cause some trouble somewhere later.

Yes, i remember i have download those files, but in friday, and i have fail the download because server reset my connection. Actually, i have recorded a gif for it, and ready to report to a admin, but i dont know who is boss of TSP.

You may take few sec, i will boot my computer and upload that gif.

Edit – OK, Here it is:

OK guys, Now is 3:31 AM, i must sleep… I just want to make you know, im not a trouble maker…

Edit – I check my LAN, only 3 computers in this network, and all of it is safe. I think that is the Stat problem of IDC, i just guess.
All Routers in my LAN is …Junior… i mean that so basally…do you know the TP-Link and HuaWei household products… all of it is low-cost…So no one can hack my routers and change the statistical data

w0dk4

download manager with multiple streams… its very likely that the webalizer software caught this as 1000 downloads whereas he only downloaded it a few times
(most web logging programs dont log the actual traffic that goes through the line, but only look at apache’s access logs, therefore counting every started download as a valid download)

FriendlyFire

Then where do the 10gb worth of bandwidth consumed come from?

That’s what Worfeh said was taken in just a single day, while we usually only have 2gb/day.

w0dk4

Im saying that, if the bandwidth comsumption data is fetched by only looking at request-hits on files, it is simply wrong. Not every started download is a completed download.

Worfeh

Very true, if you look at our DB…

Than again the hits is a lil much as well, but thats a different discussion.

I got my initial info from the Apache log files. And that measures data flow as well.

And the download manager will stop at 50 connections, and will get a full block from the security software we run here.

So its a no no to download managers 8-)

EDIT:

For me the case is closed, we now know where it came from and looks like i have to enable a different data flow watcher.

Removed all IP related info.

My excuses go to Nexosu.

NeXoSE

Hey FF, Im back. Strange, i trying to connect TSP at daytime, but DNS respond Unknow Host….

So, thats mean im Free, im feeling good

Edit – If TSP only have 2gb/day i suggest remove download to other service or place, i think p2p share is a good choice.

What he said was that we are on a average of 2gb bandwidth a day. We have unlimited bandwidth, but i don’t like it when one IP uses a lot of bandwidth…

My 2 cents: may be his provider uses NAT like mine in which case many users have the same IP.

I have my own IP only inside provider’s network and i go to the outside through one of about 20 NAT-servers and share that server and its outer address with many other network users.
