Restart connections after throttling

[tonycollinet]

HI  - sorry, noob questions.

I have a download ongoing which has stopped due to ISP time based traffic management. Should it restart autmatically, or do I need to trigger it.

How often will it try to connect to servers? And is there anyway I can check that it is retrying from the web interface.

Thanks.

SABnzbd is very persistent in retries.
Check the Connections page to see what's going on.
The timeout you set for the server will determine how often it tries.

Does your ISP block you completely?
Not just a lower speed?

It is supposed to be just a lower speed - but normally it is a throttling close to zero speed. However, Agent normally stays connected, but just a very low speed. SABNZBD seems now to be disconnected (both servers are showing zero connections) and I cannot see any activity at all.

Which SABnzbd release do you use?
0.4.12 may have some issues with this situation.

Once the connection is up, pause/resume should be enough.

I am on 0.4.12, running on synology nas, using Merty's package.

Pause resume did not get it going, but shutting down the service, and restarting did.


Edit: just as I looked, all the connections timed out - I suspect they will not restart again.

EDIT: I was wrong - they did restart.
