Re: Horrible download speeds, I think I've tried everything.

and it's something with SAB for sure as when I run the same file on NZBGet my speed is constant and maxed out. But I much prefer SAB I cannot explain. The only time I see "wild ranging" is when I use WiFi instead of wired. I reinstalled Sab with fresh setting and now it's fine? I haven't ...

Re: Horrible download speeds, I think I've tried everything.

When the speed goes back like this, it's usually the server. Or the ISP throttling news connections. Workaround: VPN. Giganews seems to offer VPN functionality ... Would throttling cause it to go from 800-900KB/s up to my max and back down....it's all over the place. yeah it's not my ISP and it's s...

Re: Horrible download speeds, I think I've tried everything.

I agree but it is still working as of now...I've got all 7 connections on both servers working and it's maxing our around 10.5MB/s. I would love to get my full 17/18MB/s but I can live with this.
EDIT: Ok nevermind back down to 1MB/s >:( This is getting frtustrating....

Re: Horrible download speeds, I think I've tried everything.

Honestly I think I probably just fixed it. The one thing I hadn't tried until right before I posted this was turning off ssl for the servers and switching to normal ports. Speeds are now acceptable around 12MB/s. I can live with that. Thank you for the quick reply, but I fell it is taken care for no...

Horrible download speeds, I think I've tried everything.

My internet is 17MB/170Mbps and speedtest actually pings out around 190Mbps...Sabnzbd is downloading at barely 1MBps :-\ Cache is set at 200M with 8GB ram in the system. Usenet server and astraweb are my servers (not on SSL) and connections on both are set at 7. I've tried force disconnect, repair, ...

Re: Re-Occuring Errors - Everything seems to check out.

All fixed thank you. For some reason it wasn't resetting after a restart of SAB. Had to restart the pc for the changes to occur.

Re: Re-Occuring Errors - Everything seems to check out.

Let me add a portion to my first post in apologizing for my obvious oversight and lack of paying attention to what the hell I was reading...when I looked at the "warnings" and saw API missing I was just assuming their was an issue. I understand that not every file is going to be on one spe...

Re-Occuring Errors - Everything seems to check out.

Ok, I have several usenet providers set up in server area under config; all setup with SSL enabled and test successfully (giganews, usenet, astraweb, and Blocknews). Only one setup as a backup is the Blocknews account. I restarted SAB and am still getting these errors in the log but everything seems...

Re: Every sickbeard download showing out of server retention

Think of it this way: You need 10 parts to make a whole file, and a par file can make up any single missing file. Usenetserver has parts: 1, 5 and 9 Blocknews has the same parts because they're the same company: 1, 5 and 9 Giganews has no parts because they deleted everything: 0 Astraweb has parts:...

Re: Every sickbeard download showing out of server retention

sander wrote:You should read "out of server retention" as "not on your newsserver(s) (anymore)". And that could very well be caused by DMCA takedowns.

A blocknews account won't change that; same DMCA takedowns.
Then what is a block account even good for then?

Re: Every sickbeard download showing out of server retention

Theoretical, yes, but Giganews has a high and fast rate of complete DMCA removal as well. So anything older than a few hours would probably be affected. If you want to stick with a US company instead of using a European one like Tweaknews, then you could buy a block from Astraweb and give that a sh...

Re: Every sickbeard download showing out of server retention

Blocknews is now owned by Highwinds, which also owns Usenetserver. Therefore it is not a realistic backup since it won't find anything that Usenetserver doesn't already have. Try someone on a different branch like Tweaknews: http://www.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/providers Good luck. That makes sense....

Re: Every sickbeard download showing out of server retention

Downloaded an ubuntu test as suggested. It downloaded fast and perfectly fine. So, conclusion: your SABnzbd/Newsserver download setup is correct. Next conclusion: DMCA for the other things you want to download. See https://forums.sabnzbd.org/search.php?keywords=dmca I understand that, it's the natu...

Re: Every sickbeard download showing out of server retention

Did you download an Ubuntu post, like I advised you to do? Trying to, it's sitting in my SAB queue and status is waiting. Which I've never seen before. And any idea why I keep receiving this error? API Key missing, please enter the api key from Config->General into your 3rd party program: ::1>Mozil...
