Re: Need Help - Slow Download Speed

It someone wouldn't mind having one last look for me... I am running Blk XP... Could that be a problem? Am I missing python-yenc and if so how to I check it, install it, etc?

Any help very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Re: Need Help - Slow Download Speed

Downloaded Grabit... set up... actually running slower??? Hovering between 52kbs and 58kbs.

It must be some sort of setting on my computer somewhere or the modem. Again, my ISP is not limiting me in anyway at all. This is driving me nuts :o

Re: Need Help - Slow Download Speed

Hi... thanks.

I only posted what speedtest said.

I have tried Altbinz with the same slow results. I will try Grabit and respond with results. I pay for a usenet account so that is not the issue.

Could it be my ADSL modem???

Thanks again.

Re: Need Help - Slow Download Speed

Yes...Sorry :-[ - you are correct. Just did it again and got the following...

4.35 Mb/s down
0.46 Mb/s up
35 ms ping

Sorry for the confusion.

It indicates that a movie of 800MB would take 25 min.

Just did a speed test at Speedtest.net

Download is 4.33 Gbs, Upload is 0.43 Gbs, ping is 34ms.

Confused???
