Download never dies

Here are few things that one need to do ensure that one utilizes as much bandwidth of our broadband (these step are applicable only if your place has power cut and your bandwidth is not so high that you can get stuff for whole day in an hour):-

Step 1 : Set your BIOS to boot up after power outage this can be done. In BIOS go to Power and set your After AC failure to Auto(to return to previous state before power failure)

Step 2 : Step set your computer to auto login on start. you don't need to have your password as blank to do that. Use the second method which does not involve registry editing.

Step 3 : Add your torrent client say utorrent in startup by simply putting the utorrent's shortcut in startup folder.

Step 4: Also configure utorrent's web UI so that you can monitor it remotely.Get an OpenDNS account so that you can get your IP when you are away(applicable only if you have dynamic IP). You may have to do port forwarding on the router to make this work.

Alternatively you can use logmein 's free remote client service to login and do things remotely.

So, Now you are all set to download non-stop and you will be able to monitor and add torrents remotely.

Are yaar, do you know how to setup LAN with a switch. We are using Sify broadband which need authentication each time.
