Bad downl-g, good upl-g

14 posts in this topic

ApexDC 1.0.1. Link is 1 Mb/s. Hubs connected about 30. Many files for downl-g.

Problem: for each day Apex are downloading about 20-50 MB, but uploading more then 1 GB! Why?

On first shot, your sources might be slow. Have you tested in a LAN hub, to start with?

Your sources are slow!! Whereas it will be uploading as fast as users can receive. Thats the way DC works, so enjoy :)

Another reason might be bad setting of limiter, by negligence...

& Satan

I have traditional connect: my comp - <100Mb> - home router (D-Link) - <100Mb> - building switch of provider - ...

Speed of all links are correct. My inet-limit - 1 Mb. I see that down/up speed is about 1-5 Mb in DC-hub our provider.

If you mean remote sources, then I don't understand - all of sources are slowly?! Even so, I see in my window (in DC) of running connects: downloading connects, as rule, 0, more rarely - 1-2 (setting - 8); uploading - in compliance with settings (7).

I multiple inspect my settings. Though, I don't understand all of them (not found in Guide).

What settings must I see?

Have you got your ports properly set up and your forwarding on?

I use passive mode... :) And use it all time that I use DC.

In the past this problem was smaller then last 1-2 month; I had more then 100, 200 MB for day. E.g., for today downloaded only 3 MB (1 file)...

And another strange thing. When DC is working, downloading stream about 20-100 kb/s (DC isn't downloading at this time!) - but other inet application (IE, GoogleEarth e.g.) are working very slowly (though busy only 10% channel!).

Sounds like an ISP problem, contact them to see if they are having network difficulties.

Also, you may need to run a speed test on your connection to check the current thoroughput on it.

ok, thanks.

I discovered one interesting things...

Usually I added files to downloading and them I didn't do anything. Gradually growing my problem (bad downloading).

Now I search alternatives for each files manually - and downloading somehow is up.

BUT:

1. Apex don't search alternatives automatically??? However, if it doing - why it ineffective?

2. I might to search alternatives for each file? I have a hundreds, may be, thousands files in downloading list...

This option should be on by default, but if necessary turn it on in settings.

It's tricky to sort, it need's hard coded, I feel that the dev's can't do it. No Offence intended, DCPP can't do it either.
