Hi, everytime i try to download any NZB over 5GB (an estimate) my download speed tragically drops from 600 kbs to B/s!

Windows 7 64-bit
Latest Sabnzbd update
All settings are still the default ones

Thanks!

Drops to what?

Bytes! actual Bytes per second! Not even 1 kbps!

Try another program (Grabit) to check if its not something in your infrastructure.

The strange thing is that a 2GB NZB worked just right, and also i found this other thread http://forums.sabnzbd.org/viewtopic.php?t=5995&start=0 which has a similar problem but has remained unanswered.

The old problem you refer to had a specific cause, which was resolved quite some time ago.
It affected only very large downloads, not 5G ones.
It also wasn't really a problem on modern PC hardware.

So grabit had also a problem with that NZb, however i happened to find a similar download using it's browser and it couldn't download that one either. However a completely different 16GB download did appeared to work. But i tried a third time with a 29GB download and failed again.

Define "failed".
Other than that, welcome to Usenet...

Failed: as in the previously described problem happened again ...After that one i ran out of "free searches" so i couldn't try with another NZB pulled from Grabit's search engine.

Thank You!
