well that is quite easy when you download , firefox will show you how much is your download speed , no need to search for it , i guess rapidshare speed will be less than other downloads as many people use them daily.Quote:

I had a rapidshare premium account and that time I was getting around 300kbps download speed instead of usual 35kbps for free download in my 2MB connection. but now that they limited the download to 2.66GB its no longer a preferred site, at least for me......
download speed in FireFox can be checked by either Tools>>DownloadsQuote:

Dude, 300 kbps is really a good speed, but I wonder what you mean by they limited download to 2.66 GB. Does that mean you can download only files upto 2.66 GB in a month though you own rapidshare premium accounts?Quote:

Dude, 80 GB is more than 10 GB, so I think from November onwards, they have increased the daily download limit.Quote:

if you bought premium for 30 days you will have a total download limit of 2.66* 30 =80GB
For account owners who joined before nov 2008 there is a DAILY limit of 10GB which if not completed in a day is not transferable to the next day.
ie if you download only 5GB a day you won't be able to download 15GB on the next day you only will be able to download 10GB maximum.
Thanks now it cleared my doubt, but I think some other sites like mediafile, hotfile are offering more than rapidshare, so I wonder why some people are still sticking to rapidshare. Maybe they are very old if I'm not wrong.
yeah many others are providing better service than rapidshare. My favorite is www.ifile.it which gives about 200kbps speed for just a free registration.
Don't know why much people are not using it.
because its not well promoted unlike rapidshare.Quote:

Slow web pages could be the result of dns server timeouts. Your router is probably getting the dns servers from your Internet provider. (Logging on to the router should tell you the routers dns server IP address).
The PC's could be getting their dns server IP address either from your Server or the 2700HGV router. Disconnecting your server from the network and connecting a PC to the router should test this premise.
Take your server out of equation and see if Internet access and webpages speeds up. later test your speed here ScanMySpeed.com
