utilising off peak download

Posted: Sat Aug 27, 2011 6:09 am

just a thought to isohunt and was wondering if they could create a function which allowed me to allocate a time of day my computer is able to download at a specific time and also stop downloading at a specific time eg. start download at 12pm, end download at 7am so that i could utilise the off peak download amount allocated by my internet provider which i want to use more of, this would allow me less of a chance of paying any fees if i went over my MB in peak time.

I don't know how it works on other torrent clients, but utorrent has an option in "Preferences" to set up a scheduler to do exactly what you're asking...

It really would be more a thing for your torrent client to take care of, or another piece of software perhaps. I don't think that Isohunt could actually do that for you...

what they said.isohunt is a global indexing site.use the options in your client and set up the times you want it too download,etc.

As Bek says, use uTorrent's scheduler:

Then you can let it run automatically. Job done. Wink
