Ok because Iinet suck balls and have shaped me 2 weeks into my monthly allowance of 100 gig, Im not sure how though as I have like 5 gig of HD space left and I couldnt use 10 gig in a month when I had unlimited usage.I only assume they count saying "internet" out loud as a good gig of data and thusly remove it from my monthly allowance,anyway, I digress.
I still have a good chunk of off peak data available, but as getting up at 6am and downloading as many torrents as possible in a 2 hour period is a pain in the ass, I was wondering if there is a way to que torrents up and have them run through the entire off peak period, which Im sure is 2am to 8am.
cheers pingpingpingpings

What do you use to download them?

utorrent and vuze both have schedulers inbuilt, takes 10 seconds to sort.

I deleted it and went back to vuze, but it definitely has a scheduler - look under your options.

even without scheduling, since your shaped anyway just leave it on downloading at pathetic speeds. once 2am hits it will crank up to normal off peak and away it goes.

Yeah found it TJ, cheers man.

EXCESSIV - I tried that, but it is so fucking slow that I actually started going back in time.

Sorted though.
