-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
how much (extra) bandwidth is needed for a seed node? My connection has a static IP and my Server is up 24/7 without any forced 24h disconnects... But I can't spend all the bandwidth for freenet. That’s why I would like to know how much extra traffic is generated through being a seednode. artur Am 05.02.2011 19:39, schrieb Matthew Toseland: > We need more seednodes.
