Hi everyone,
I'm quite new to newsgroups and Alt Binz and currently running the latest version.
I've just upgraded my Virgin Media broadband speed from 10 meg upto their 60 meg package. The first time I downloaded a large nzb file (32gb) I couldn't get more than 4mb/s download, after talking to a friend who had the same problem when he upgraded he advised me to change the settings in the connection speed and to set this to 80000kb/s, after doing this my download speed went to 32mb/s but only for around 5 - 6 minutes, it then dropped back to 4mb/s.
Can anyone tell me the correct settings to make full use of my new 60 meg speed. I am using Astraweb with windows 7 home premium 64 bit with no security software currently running so that I could rule that out as slowing my download speed. Every speed test I have done, both myself and the Virgin Media tech team all show my download speed as 64mb/s so I am at a loss as to what is causing the serious lack of speed.
So to recap if anyone can tell me what the correct connection speed settings should be to make full use of my upgraded speed and any other settings that may also need to be changed.
Thanks everyone for all your help
Noel
