Not having a keep2share subscription, I’m stuck with downloading videos at ridiculously slow rates...
If I didn’t download anything for a day or two, I get 50 kbps, but immediately after that, it gets even slower with 30 kbps or less, so I can download a 3GB video file in 36 hours or more...
from work, I have access to different internet servers, where I can simply make a SOCKS proxy, and connect my local computer to that, get the starting page of keep2share, and get the download URL, and then log in onto that server, and download the file with
wget -O outfile.mp4 "...super long link from the browser..."
I need to first stop the download in the browser, otherwise I’ll get a 509 http error, but after that, wget happily starts downloading.
But still, as I didn’t ever download anything from keep2share from these specific servers (located all over Europe, the US and south east asia), it already gives me the prognostics of taking super long 40hrs or so. Any idea why this is? How does k2s already give me the 30kbps penalty?
