Rapidshare – Amount downloaded much less than bandwidth used
August 6th, 2016
When I download files from RapidShare I receive much less that I have actually downloaded.
I have tried both the RapidShare Manager and Flashget, both show me downloading at approximately 600KB/s (it varies a bit) but another application that measures my bandwidth used (DU Meter) shows that I am using all of my connection at 1.2MB/s. The actual amount I have downloaded now is approximately 300MB-350MB however my traffic has reduced by 1133MB, which is approximately the total bandwidth I have used, according to my download meter. Strangely, my RapidShare logs show that I have downloaded 333215KB, which is the actual amount I have received.
I have previously used RapidShare with all the same settings and it worked correctly, I renewed my account earlier today and since then I have had this problem.
Cheers
I have heard using multiple simultaneous parts per link can cause that type of behavior
It still happens when downloading in a browser =\
Really strange. I suggest removing your inlog data and temporary files. Add your RS account again to the software.
Otherwise, just contact Rapidshare, their support is ok.
OK, seems to be my PC, just tried it on a laptop and it seems to be working as usual, any ideas what could be up with my PC?
most probably u have a virus/spyware that connects to the internet.. u should get rid of it.. post a hijackthislog
