Developer Zone: Trading Storage - What's New
Trading storage is now as simple as ever: The only requirement you have to fulfill is that you are online for at least four hours a day on average. Just go to Tools > Options > Trade Storage (Win/Linux) or Preferences > Trade Storage (Mac), set the check box for trading, and specify how many GBs you want to trade.
Here's my special suggestion for the new version:
What's New
You can now trade storage, even if your connection is not optimal. We introduced three connection types 'A', 'B', and 'C'. 'A' means that your connection is optimal and you will earn storage very quickly. 'C' means that your connection is just ok for trading storage. You can still do it, but you will earn storage very slowly. In this case you should consider
improving your connection.
improving your connection.
Here's my special suggestion for the new version:
- Activate 'trade storage' in the preferences
- Enable the option 'Start Wuala when I start my computer' (in your preferences under 'General') so that Wuala is running whenever your computer is switched on
By trading storage, you will automatically become a Pro user and can take advantage of our two new features: backup and file versioning.

Is connection type B special, or just in between A and C? Any specifications on what parameters determine the connection type?
Great work in any case :-)
'Connection type A' accepts incoming connections, so Wuala can connect to any other computer. 'B' is a special type of router, which can open a connection in many cases but not all. 'C' is a very restrictive router, with the result that even fewer connections can be opened. (http://www.wuala.com/en/support/faq/c/16#id001619)
I really like this blog post, it has some great info. Thank you and keep up good work.
