internetwalker Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Same problem here. I have already downloaded 900MB 3 times but couldn't reach the end of x64 sp1 (1,02Gb). My connection is 4Mbits and I was getting a very variable rate, from 80 to 300 kb/s (my max rate would be about 500). Main problem I see is that the download manager start it all over everytime, since your server is explicitly setting the header "Accept-Ranges: none". Also it's limited to a single connection. Just to understand, do you have a reason for not letting people resume broken downloads and even making more than 1 connection? This scheme has already drained 3Gb of your (and my) bandwidth for nothing. Thanks!! Mr. Milk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xable Posted September 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Beleive me these restrictions are necessary, I wouldn`t be imposeing them otherwise. In fact if I didn`t impose them my host would because the amount of over exuberant download managers sending thousands of requests per file was bringing the server down. This is a seperate problem which I`m working to resolve. I thank you for your reports and your patience. I have just changed the storage method, testing downloads right now. Please let me know if you still have problems, there are a few more things I can try before kicking up a shit storm at my host. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please let me know if you still have problems, there are a few more things I can try before kicking up a shit storm at my host. Thank you Xable. You're doing a brilliant job, and for free!. Just asked about the limits because my thoughts were "if I can download faster I'll let room for others to come in." and also "if I could resume a broken download I would be unloading the server". Anyways, I managed to download the file through my dedicated server (and from there to my notebook with a more stable connection and resume). Your line is very good, I got a rate of 1,6 MB/s and the whole 1,02GB was downloaded in about 10 minutes. But I did have to give it a couple of tries since even the 10-minute download was getting cut. Thanks a zillion and keep up the good job man!
