Recent drastic slow DL speeds...

I'm sure this is covered in FAQ however I'm mystified as to what's going on with my downloads using SABNZBD. I've never had to post any questions to this forum because I just joined the forum a few days ago seeing as I've never had a problem with downloading any files… until recently. I've been using this program for at least three to four years now and just in the last three or four days my download speeds have reduced from anywhere between 50 MB/s to 15 MB/s. Is quite frustrating seeing as I enjoyed excellent speeds up until most recently. I've looked at the Wikipedia entry for SAB to tweak the settings for fastest speed. I've taken a look at my firewall and I've noticed that there are already incoming exceptions placed into the firewall by the program itself. I've even tried changing my default browser to see if edge would work better than the one I'm using (Vivaldi). I've also tried using the program after quitting Malwarebytes and turning off my virus protection program (ESET NOD32). I've attached the status and interface options. Any help would be welcome.

Have you tried a different usenet provider?
And tried enabling ssl to see if maybe your provider is doing some throttleing?

Could you show/copy-paste the results from Status and Interface settings diagnostics?

Something is clearly going wrong, your internet speed is listed as 1.8MB/s. When you go to fast.com, what speed is shown there?
Either Sab is being blocked/slowed, or your whole device is.
Additionally, your Complete Folder speed is 20MB/s so downloading at 50MB/s would just then be blocked by a much slower unpacking.

Hello there… I'm hoping you haven't forgotten about my query concerning the SABNZBD issues I have. I could really use your help.

Sorry, not much I can see.. All seems fine, all that I could expect is your service provider maybe throttleing usenet traffic. Or maybe it's accidentally using IPv6 suddenly, not sure.. You can try in Config Switches to set Load balancing to Prevent.

in the servers tab I discovered that my number of connections with only set at 10. I reset it to 30 in my DL speed shut up to the 46 MB/s.

...and it was using IPv6! I change that to First IP address.
