 vetto join:2006-12-14 Oakdale, CT | Thanks, but now I can only get 3 of 4 connections...This used to be expected during high usage times, sometimes dropping even to 2 connections. Is there a policy (written or unwritten) change regarding number of connections? and is the server still a Giganews server? |
|
 | We now allow 3 connections, at 256k each, instead of 4 connections at 128k each. So, overall, you should see a net increase of 256k per user |

 vetto join:2006-12-14 Oakdale, CT | So total is now 768k...I am seeing 450KB/s total. is this the "k" and "K" or "b" vs "B" translation issue? |
