How do I access Torbox in India?

To access Torbox in India, particularly the version that facilitates faster BitTorrent downloads, you need to understand the specific setup and requirements involved.

Partnership with ISPs

Torbox.net works in collaboration with several Indian Internet Service Providers (ISPs) such as Alliance Broadband, Excitel, Syscon Infoway, and True Broadband. These ISPs have peering agreements with Torbox, which allows users to download torrents at higher speeds by connecting them to local peers within their own network13.

Checking ISP Compatibility

To use Torbox.net, you need to have an ISP that has a peering agreement with Torbox. If your ISP does not have such an agreement, you will see a notice indicating this. If your ISP is compatible, Torbox will direct you to torrents with peers on the same network, significantly increasing your download speeds13.

Using the Service

• Visit Torbox.net and perform a search for the content you want to download.
• If your ISP has a peering agreement, Torbox will return search results ordered by the proximity of downloaders, ensuring you connect to local peers.
• The downloads will go through a regular torrent client, but the traffic will be optimized to stay within your ISP's network, reducing the load on the ISP's external connections13.

Note on Content and Legal Considerations

It is important to note that while Torbox.net provides a technical solution for faster downloads, the service may still be subject to legal and regulatory scrutiny, especially given the ongoing issues with piracy in India13.
