Unhappy Connection just slowly dieing on me and other questions...

Hi.

I just wondered if this is something any of you have experienced:

Almost every time I get a download going now, it starts out good, but as time moves on, the download just slows down more and more, until it grinds to a halt; 0.0Kb/s.

It doesn't disconnect though, it just sits there doing nothing.

If I hit Abort, then Resume, sometimes I'm "hooked up" again, but other times I immediately get the "They are busy..." thingy, or "Request timed out".

I've got ADSL, 1024Kbit/sec down and 256Kbit/sec upload.

I HAVE had quite a few successful downloads as well though, but when this happens it's just annoying.

This even happened yesterday, when I had a download going at 23Kbit/sec when I left the house, and it would take about an hour and a half at that speed. When I got home, the download speed was at 0.0Kbits, and it had stopped at about 59%.

Not disconnected, just hanging there.

I have turned off every Power Management on my PC, so it never sleeps or turns off anything, and I don't use even a screensaver.

Anyone had this or know the reason?




Another question I have is about the "Allow incoming" tickbox on the "Hosts" page.

I thought that by unticking this I would give no uploads?

I do this from time to time, when I know I'm not going to be online for any length of time, and am just going to have a quick search and then go offline again.

But today, even though the tickbox was empty, a guy using mactella got access and downloaded from me. I share files all the time, so it didn't really bother me, but I would like to have SOME control over this myself?


AND - why is it that when I allow incoming, the available hosts shrink from 4 to 2(if 4 is what I have entered to "keep up")?


Thanks in advance.
