How to download using the magnet Link: https://kat.ph/community/show/16878/

The trouble lies with Torcache and not Kat.
Kat use's Torcache for caching torrents http://torcache.net/
When Torcache goes down we can normally switch to Torrage another torrent caching service but the trouble is it can also be overloaded with traffic attempting to access the service http://torrage.com/ when the other goes down.
Most large torrent sites use the service of a caching site because we/they don't have to operate a tracker and store the torrent files.Cost is also a big reason as running your own tracker is not cheap and some might argue that this decentralized setup will reduce the legal liability for site owners since their part in the BitTorrent chain has been significantly reduced..
Meanwhile you can use the magnetic link, that horse shoe looking tab located on the left of the download tab.
It's just as easy: left click it, it will give you the option to chose opening with your download client such as bittorrent, or your browser. Choose the client. and proceed as usual.
Thank you for your patience.

Torcache is back up:
http://www.websitedown.info/torcache.net
and I just cached my last few uploads with torcache and the tracker is slowly returning stats.Could this be the end of torcachepocalypse?

I would really like to change my "please stand by" undies too, I've had them on for three days

whiner!!!

whats up with it saying i need to use a specific BitTorrent client???

Now that Torcache is back up and running we now need to get all uploaders to manually add the torrent file to the cache as its not happening automatically.Once they upload the file, click the download torrent button which will take you to the torrentcache page and then you can add the torrent file.A lot of users are using the magnet link but there are still a lot of "unable to download" comments as they use the download button.

thanks for sharing

As the saying goes... all good things come to those who wait... patiently!
These thing happen in this game.

Just made my first upload today, the torrent file cached automatically and I can see seeders in the tracker...fingers crossed we're back on track again

Yeaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's fixed. Now I can get my download on. All my favorite Sunday shows are downloading as we speak.

Everything seems to be good to me, but torrent downloads seem a little slower than normal. The magnet links, surprisingly, are working great and downloading quickly. Thanks, Kat Staff! You guys rock! Keep it up!
