Hey,
I was wondering of there were other people with the same problem I am facing.
Whenever i'm downloading with sab, I get speeds up to 1.4MB/s but never faster and when this is going on, my wifi doesnt work anymore, it just times out.
Could this have anything to do with the amount of connections I have? ATM i've got 8 servers... seems not so much.
I'm a Belgacom customer and have a BBox2 and an 100Mb network but nothing further. I'm planning on getting a Gigabit network though.
The LAN network stil works but pretty slow. I'm afraid that sab cogs up all of the bandwith we've got.
Anyone got the same problem or a solution?
Cheers

Re: Connection Problems
8 servers? Or 8 connections to 1 server?
Anyway: easy to test your hypothesis ("amount of connections"): lower the number of connections to 1. If that stays stable, increment with 1, and so on.

Re: Connection Problems
I have 1 server with 12 connections I can use but i have set 8 to use.
I'm trying your advise as we speak and it seems promising but when i set 1 connection the download speed drops to 900kb/s

Re: Connection Problems
Are you using WiFi or a cable for the system on which SABnzbd runs?
WiFi is easily saturated with sustained downloading, especially when distance
and walls interfere.

If wired ethernet isn't stable either, consider a firmware upgrade. If that doesn't help, you could get a new modem.
Re: Connection Problems
The problem is that i have a modem from our provider and we cant change that. But i will look in to a firmware update and try to update it. Furthermore i have set my connections to 3 and i am getting my 1.4 MB/s back without gobbling the whole wifi. Is it greedy to ask for a greater speed? :-D thanks for the help guys. Much appreciated
Re: Connection Problems
No, not at all. And your ISP should provide you a stable router.Wazaa89 wrote:Is it greedy to ask for a greater speed?
Re: Connection Problems
Yeah it crap from belgacom. We need it for digital tv. But maybe there is a newer hardware version. We rent that piece of crap so i can bring it back and ask a newer model. Thx
