I'm still having problems with my News Downloads.. Most of the time mail only downloads it only gets to speeds of 450-500cps. I've once or twice managed to get a connection at 1200ish cps. However annoyngly this is when I've only got a couple of news to download (grrr. !) I've heard rumours that this problem is caused by one of demon's newsservers and re-send problems ??? Has anyone found a definite way of fixing the problem... that doesn't have any side effects ??? BTW: I've no idea what rtt, mru and all those other things at the start of STartup.NOS mena or do, so if you really want to help maybe you could explain what some of these mean and how they affect the sessions, and how changing them will speed up my new download Thanks in advance. __ Phil H -------- email: phil4@phil4.demon.co.uk PGP 2.6.3i Key Availabe On Request. ******************************************************************* * a member of the VIRTUAL REALITY CREW, V V RRRR CCCC * * creators of STF PD Game of the month, V V R R C * * SKYDUEL - 92% and 2nd best PD game of V V RRRR C * * 1995. email: vrc@phil4.demon.co.uk VV R RR CCCC * * or ftp: ftp.demon.co.uk \pub\atari\games\ ------------------ * *******************************************************************
