Privacy is one thing that we all are concerned about. VPN software makes it easy to encrypt your internet connection and hide your real IP address. Without a VPN software, everything you do online i.e your entire online activity gets tracked, followed, and even spied on by your Internet Service Provider. All our gigabox plans include a complimentary VPN (Virtual Private Network) application to ensure that your private data is protected and you get complete privacy online. We support both OpenVPN & Wireguard.

Our customized and user friendly interface makes it relatively easy for you to manage your gigabox, monitor resource usage(i.e storage space, CPU usage), and much more. The user interface is fully responsive, which means the UI will scale and fit properly on mobile devices and on desktops at the same time. Moreover, It supports all modern browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, and the latest versions of Internet Explorer (IE9 and up).
A seedbox is a high-bandwidth remote server for uploading and downloading digital files from a P2P network. Seedboxes generally use the BitTorrent protocol. Each Seedbox has one or more torrent clients with a web user interface that you can log in remotely, via SSH, web control panel, or smartphone app. In the interface, you can load torrent files or torrent URLs, and once loaded they will start downloading the file(s) associated with it. After the seedbox has acquired the files, people with access to the seedbox can download those files at very high speeds to their personal computers via their home connection. Seedboxes let you download files that have been saved on them via HTTP, FTP, and SFTP.
Seedboxes on high-speed internet connections are typically able to download huge files within minutes, provided that the swarm can actually handle such a high upload bandwidth. Seedboxes are usually connected to a high-speed internet connection. These speeds range from 100Mbps (12.5MB/s) to 10Gbps (1250MB/s). The ability to transfer files so quickly makes them very attractive to the P2P communities.
If an ISP thinks you are using too much of their bandwidth, they will shape your torrent traffic effectively limiting you to a slower speed. A seedbox avoids this by not using torrent traffic on your home internet connection.
Most people who want to use a seedbox find it more cost and time-effective to just pay a monthly subscription fee and reap all the benefits of a seedbox without all the hassle.
A VPS Seedbox is a virtual remote server based on hypervisors like KVM, Xen, OpenVZ, etc, and can be used as a seedbox. Unlike a shared seedbox, a VPS seedbox is completely isolated and has a fixed amount of system resources.
Gigabox is not a VPS-based product. We have a completely unique system based on various native Linux features to isolate every user and their usage. The amount of resources e.g - RAM, CPU you can use is also very flexible.
In the BitTorrent file distribution system, a torrent file or meta-info file is a computer file that contains metadata about files and folders to be distributed, and usually also a list of the network locations of trackers, which are computers that help participants in the system find each other and form efficient distribution groups called swarms.
A torrent file does not contain the content to be distributed; it only contains information about those files, such as their names, folder structure, and sizes obtained via cryptographic hash values for verifying file integrity.
Gigabox is a SaaS product that allows you to install and access many useful applications on your cloud server without installing anything on your device.
A seedbox server is mainly used for high-speed file transfer within a P2P network. You can install any of the supported BitTorrent client(s) to use Gigabox as a seedbox.
Other Use-cases include the following -
Yes, you can install and use zoomuploader to upload files to your cloud storage or you can use rclone for the sync functionality.
We also offer a remote firefox browser that makes uploading files easier to any other unsupported cloud provider.
