Hey, I was hoping you guys could help me understand the behavior of my H@H client.
About a year ago, I was running my H@H client off of a privacy VPN for port forwarding through the service PIA. This iteration of the client was located out of Vancouver Canada and had an average quality around 8000 with 400ish assigned static ranges. The cache is on a 2TB Sata SSD.
After experiencing one too many network interruptions (VPN caused) where the trust and quality nosedived, I ditched the VPN. The client now runs off of my ISP provided IP and port 443 in the United States. The quality sits around 9500 with nearly 100% uptime (power outages/Proxmox updating). It is assigned 70-80k KB/s upload speed, 2TB of cache space (18.61% used) and is around toplist space 500 for the past month.
My question is why isn’t the client getting assigned more static ranges? It has been at 644ish total ranges, with 255 HC, for the better part of a year. There has been some upward movement of the ranges towards P1 in the last year. But no new ranges have been assigned. I assumed when I relocated the client from Canada to the US and gave it twice the speed it would pick up ranges, but it seemingly hasn't. Are total static ranges an irrelevant metric to gauge client performance? Is this a result of the US being over-served by clients?
“The following ranges are currently assigned: P1 = 147, P2 = 149, P3 = 134, P4 = 214, HC = 255”
Thanks for reading this!
*(1.5-2 years ago the client had 6000 static ranges. However the SSD died, so I had to wipe the cache and start over. (IMG:[
