rolf Why doesnt my download go faster then 5kb/S ???? I am paying for 256kb = 30 kb/S ! (Please dear God, please blow up the IDM headquarters please God, blow them up (but dont kill anyone) come on guys, pray with me...)

mir lol at you rolf hehehehe first u should pray for a miracle , later for a disaster to happen let's do a hunger strike for a better connection in lebanon and cheaper prices ? Who wants to go on diet and loose some weight for the summer :P time to change ur ISP rolf ? i am surprised u didn't do that already Lot of ppl hate IDM around here :P
teodorgeorgiev Darkstar, if he is using some tunelling protocol like PPTP / PPPoE / L2TP you have to consider that protocol overhead. 256Kbps over pure Ethernet will give about 30KB/s, but not with one of the above protocols. However, the ISPs should also consider that overhead and compensate the customer. Also, one have to check his download from several fast-speed sites before claiming that he is not getting his real bandwidth. Though I doubt that Rolf has not done it already.
mahdoum doesn't it make u feel bad that i'm paying for 128 at idm and my download rate is a constant 14 :P
teodorgeorgiev Mahmoud, 1. If these words were related to me - no, it does not makes me feeling bad. Almost nothing in this life can not make me feeling bad since years :) 2. Probably your account is a dedicated one, whilst the one of Rolf is a shared one.
mir Hello rolf.. just to piss you off.. this is the connection speed i got from the cable guy Donno what was going wrong that day, but here is the pic No photoshop skills included
mir well i don't pay the company pays lol it is something around 35$ i guess halla2 this speed is without download accelerator yesterday, my frnd here got something around 900k but with a download acclerator it is not always that way.. the regular speed is 12-15. but in lot of time during the day it gets faster or bit slower
rolf Maybe that's because this file has already been downloaded before and you're downloading it from the proxy? I usually get 20-30 K but when I download the same file a 2nd time i'll get 1mb/s because it would be cached on the proxy that I have set up for my LAN.
mir Maybe that's because this file has already been downloaded before nops.. did not download the file before :P
karxix to tease u all : i have a free soho broadband connection with avg at 25kb/s, max=32kb/s :D idm, never had any probs upload isnt the best though, 4-5kb/s
rolf karxix wroteupload isnt the best though, 4-5kb/s If you have soho, it will top at 3.5 -4 kb/s unless you take drugs. ;) no offence meant 32/8 = 4, that is not counting any network overhead (!) and assuming that you have 100% of the bandwidth.
