Here is a solution that worked for me..

Both my computers have Windows XP with SP2.

On my laptop i downloaded a "SP2 Download Fix" or something like that, sadly i dont remember the name and i havent got the computer here right now.. :uhh:

Anyhow. That fix worked. Now i have Normal download speed on my laptop using DC++ when my other computer stil gets speed drops and disconnected trying to download without the fix installed.

I'll write again as soon as i find out what the file i used is called.

I have the same problem. The speed appears as if it is dropping, but what really happens is that the internet connection is cut. It appears that it is dropping because the k/s ratio the program shows is like the average k/s of the last few seconds, i.e.:

(k/s@(t-3secs) + k/s@(t-2secs)+ k/s @(t-1secs)+ k/s @(t))/4

where t is the current time. So, for every t where the connection is cut, it will add 0 to the average, until all of the factors are zero.

How I know the connection is cut?

When it happens, I cannot connect or ping any web site. But I am able to ping the router and connect to the router admin page.

I the admin page, I can renew the IP. It is the same as when there is no router and you type 'ipconfig /renew'. But in this case, the router is requesting the IP to the ISP.

When I do that, the page is never refreshed.

To go back to business I need to disconnect and connect the power cable in the cable modem. With that the modem connects to the ISP to request a new IP.

The fact that it only happens for me when I'm using DC++ tells me that the ISP is monitoring something like the number of incoming socket connections to my IP and the amount of data uploaded from me. When it reaches a certain number it just drops me.

I don't think it is a limitation with the download, because I can download large files from the web at high speeds.

Now, I'm trying to find this documented anywhere on their agreement. I'm using roadrunner through brighthouse.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DC-Sudden-speed-drop-14744662 Sun, 06 Nov 2005 13:46:11 EDT Re: [DC++] Sudden speed drop http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DC-Sudden-speed-drop-14737017 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DC-Sudden-speed-drop-14737017 Sat, 05 Nov 2005 08:03:55 EDT Re: [DC++] Sudden speed drop http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DC-Sudden-speed-drop-14730685 --

I discovered having the same problem on both my computers, even my laptop gets disconnected using DC++, but it does not when downloading from http/ftp. There i have 1000kb/sec.

http/ftp downloads, from ex. ftp.sunet.se is no problem at all, there i get download speeds like 1000/kb/sec, only when im trying to download something in DC++ this problem accour.

Im running active on DC++ thrue port 1412 on my router (D-Link 624), the router and the network card on my computer has the latest firmware/drivers but nothing fix the problem.
Tryed deactivate Norton FW and also Wireless Zero Configuration in "Services" with no result.

Should also say that my home network is Wireless, but when i dont have a speed problem downloading/uploading from http/ftp this could not be the source of the problem.

Any ideas anyone?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DC-Sudden-speed-drop-14668938 Thu, 27 Oct 2005 08:20:29 EDT Re: [DC++] Sudden speed drop http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DC-Sudden-speed-drop-14633977

"I dont know, how can I tell if I have filters?"

fileters = splitters , same thing
Not so. A splitter just provides two unfiltered outlets. There are two types of filters; one is an in-line model, the other has a filtered outlet and an unfiltered outlet. If using the latter type of filter, make sure that the telephone is plugged into the filtered side. The only time the unfiltered outlet is used is to connect the DSL modem.

I have tried various ports (mostly ports around port 5000) but nothing.

But from some people I am able to download at great speeds (50 kb/s all the time from one guy)[i think from the active ones ]]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DC-Sudden-speed-drop-14507849 Wed, 05 Oct 2005 05:01:59 EDT Re: [DC++] Sudden speed drop http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DC-Sudden-speed-drop-14507753
You can download files just fine through a browser, right?

What port are you using for DC++? Some ISPS only filter/limit based on the port, while others use smarter methods which examine the application layer of the traffic and throttle accordingly (in which case you cant escape it).
