ehsan_zt Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 Hi,I wasn't sure if this is the right section of forum for posting this, so I have to apologize beforehand for any inconvinience. anyway, as said in topic title, whenever I start to download a torrent, a certain tracker adds to the tracker list of my torrent:http://tracker.sabanet.ir:55551/announceand if I remove it, the next time I resume downloading that torrent, this tracker automatically adds to the tracker list !I'm from iran and my isp is sabanet : www.sabanet.ir I want to know if this has happend to anyone with their ISP's, and if there is a way to get rid of it ? thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsoran Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 Is it included in the .torrent? If it's not, it might be added by BEP 22 support, which lets an ISP reduce bandwidth costs and (hopefully, if done correctly) increase their customers speeds: http://bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0022.html Is it causing you trouble? There's a setting in advanced, isp.bep22. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehsan_zt Posted August 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 thank you, that was a very helpful link, and I disabled isp.bep22 and the tracker was gone As you said "...if done correctly..." , but I doubt it because my download speed is half of what it used to be !I'm curious, if this option is done correctly, and I'm downloading some torrent that I'm sure other people are downloading in my area, shouldn't the peers of the tracker that have been added by isp, be more than 1 peer ?

Kitsoran Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 An ISP might use it to specify a cache server to speed up popular torrents, or if there are any other potential peers they may not support BEP 22. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
