Hi, im new to downloading with nzb's and was wondering if port forwarding would help for more consistent download speeds? I don't really know much about f]port forwarding either but i do know the basics. My download speed seems to be very inconsistent so im not sure if it's just my usenet provider (astraweb) or what it is exactly.
thanks!

Port forwarding cannot help with downloading. It's only relevant for connections initiated from elsewhere on the internet to a system inside your local lan, i.e. when connecting to sab's web interface from the outside.
