What is the crowd's opinion of BitKinex?

From 3.5 billion comments

As some have mentioned, look into some of our options for this..

Bouncers and re-route have been posted and will take care of most of the issues, also for really high speeds you need to combine that with something like bitkinex; http://www.bitkinex.com/ftp/client/bitkinex323.exe

Also note, when you are 1Gbit network, you might see congestion on our bouncer nodes as they are "only" hooked up with 1Gbit connections, but either of the bouncer/re-route solution will most likely solve this for you.

WebDAV Server Ultimate and BitKinex client. Just make sure you have a static IP or infinite lease if you're using DHCP and if you're using this setup with multiple devices you'll need a unique port number for each.

>My home downlink is 12Mbit and the server uplink is 90mbit

Sounds like classic peering issues. Your home connection's speed from your ISP or to the speedtest server down the street is irrelevant. What matters is how well your ISP deals with other networks (since your ISP likely doesn't have a network outside of Australia).

Try using a client that supports multiple segments. BitKinex for Windows is free and supports up to 50 segments. http://www.bitkinex.com

lftp via Cygwin might allow you to setup some scripted syncing with multiple segments.

Yep, I've used MediaCenterMaster for a few years and bought the lifetime license for $50 w/o regret. It has more functionality than I need on my home box, but it scans for the latest episodes for shows I want to follow or movies above a certain rating and drops the torrent file in a Dropbox folder. Being in Dropbox allows me to put whatever else I may want to d/l from any device. A simple SCP script as a scheduled task transfers it to my seedbox and clears the folder when done. Then I use BitKinex with a multi segmented SFTP connection to mirror my completion folder on the seedbox. Another simple script to tell me what's new and I manually copy/move the content after a quick review to make sure it's what I wanted. Too many grabs w/hard coded subs to leave it automated, but pretty much hands free.

Now I just need to create some custom xml files to handle some unique grouping now that I rebuilt my HTPC w/OpenElec and Frodo. (Do I put Aliens vs Predator with Aliens, Predator, or a combo folder for space monsters?)

It can be as simple or as complex as you need. MCM really solved a lot of my problems for scanning and scraping for new content, naming and fetching metadata for XBMC and BitKnex gives me a fast, secure, and automated transfer.

I can't find it on my options but I got mine to change to another drive. I believe it may be because I have requests but I'd look at this list and check out the BitKinex options, it might be under Requests (main) - see if it works without any requests on the program completely. http://www.bitkinex.com/ftp/help/html/dspropmain.html

Directory for temporary transfer files - This option specifies the location where temporary transfer files are created. If a path specification is invalid, it will be impossible to perform any transfers.

That sounds odd. How's the health of your computer's hardware? Are you downloading or uploading these files to or from your home computer?

You can use the /binary parameter to force it via command line. http://www.bitkinex.com/ftp/help/html/cmdline.html

Accessing files via https is covered in the whatbox wiki, there's a link where you can see all your files in an http directory in your web browser. And for the best speeds use a multi-segmented downloader, such as the downthemall firefox extension which should give you significantly faster speeds.

You can also probably get these increased speeds via ftp if you switch from filezilla to a client that supports segmented ftp downloads. Per /u/4eak 's suggestion I tried this one: http://www.bitkinex.com/, and i gives me significantly faster speeds than filezilla. filezilla was only giving me 400 kb/s - 1 mb/s via sftp and slighly higher via ftp(s), and it seemed to fluctuate quite a bit depending on the time of day. Using bitkinex I'm able to consistently get 3.05 mb/s via ftp(s) and 2.75 mb/s via sftp, much improved. I get similarly consistent speeds when downloading via https with firefox + the downthemall extension for segmented downloads. Segmented downloads definitely are the way to go for downloading from a seedbox.

BitKinex for windows.

• SFTP connections.
• Multi-segment downloads/uploads to make large files transfer as fast as possible.
• Transfer auto-resume - If the connection breaks, the software shuts down, the transfer queue is automatically resumed upon a restart.
• Direct server to server transfers (FXP)
• Free.

Frist the trial and then the paid pro version. And of course I mean 10 - 16 Mega*bit*, meaning about 1 - 2 Mega*byte*/s.

Also, a free alternative would be Bitkinex, although it seems to have a huge overhead when reassembling all the parts of a file.
