Finally! This will finally solve the upload speed problem!

IMHO all resellers should have rule that they MUST seed latest versions.

I am seeding!

these are same files as in our download page, just distribution method is not HTTP but torrent, so, if you install it - all the usual licensing applies

Downloads should work fine. However Torrent is more flexible isn't it ?
As it does not depend on specific download mirror location, when there are a lot of seeders, you may get torrent file from multiple locations.

Raaait....

Now what about users who's ISPs does not allow Torrents on their networks???? Just a thought.

Email states:
MikroTik RouterOS version 3.0rc11 released!
Changelog:
http://www.mikrotik.com/download/CHANGELOG_rc

Download the new RouterOS release over the torrent network:
http://www.mikrotik.com/download/routeros-3.0rc11-ALL.torrent
Where can I download rc11 now considering Torrents are blocked? Or am I not a important enough customer to use your software?

Please think your decisions through clearly before making rash decisions and changes like this...

please read further in the email before quickly replying:
MikroTik RouterOS version 3.0rc11 released!
Changelog:
http://www.mikrotik.com/download/CHANGELOG_rc

Download the new RouterOS release over the torrent network:
http://www.mikrotik.com/download/router ... LL.torrent

This download method will be a lot faster than HTTP download.
You will need a Torrent client program:
http://www.utorrent.com/

Regular HTTP download:
http://www.mikrotik.com/download.html
tell your ISP that torrent is not always a bad thing.

As someone that runs quite allot of networks, big and small... I definately do not agree with that. Not a discussion that's relavent however, so I'm not going to get into that...

limit number of connections and download speed, not available services. I, as a customer, would choose an ISP which offers more services, even if they are controlled.

It's just the regular download as a torrent, of course you have to buy a key.

Likely no sources?

The previous post was from ~12 years ago, the OP was from 2007.

What are you doing that you need/want ROS v2.9 or ROS RC v3?

Ok.. But v2.9 from 2007? You are a trainer, so you are aware that you can't install a version before the 'factory version' it came with.

Wanting to install and use it would be similar to wanting to install and use Windows XP.. The question is still, why?
