Hey all,

I have recently purchased a month by month subscription to Astraweb, and I have downloaded and installed NZBGet on my server.

It's all up and running, I have my config file set-up so that its working, downloading works ok, im usually downloading a file around 1.2-1.3MB/s which is my normal download rate.

However:

1) I have used someones astraweb account before using it with grabit, and although I dont know much about it, I was able to use around 20 threads (think there is a 25 limit on Astraweb), however, on my NZBGet install every download states that there is 9 threads, is there a way to open up more? im assuming the more you open, the more of your bandwidth is going to be used.

2) Is there anything else I can do to "tweak" this to get the very best out of this (good download speeds but allow enough bandwidth left for browsing).

Any guides on tweaking will be good :)

Thanks

First rule of usenet, don't discuss usenet.


OK, Sorry :( I thought we could discuss the application side of it, like torrents, I dont download anything illegal.

Anyway, close thread :D

P.S Iv seen a few threads on here RE the same, so why is mine different?

Im only asking about NZBGet configs.
 
Might just leave it be then, as like you all said, im maxing out at the moment, probably wont benifit anymore.

Think the next thing im going to concentrate on is scripts to automate the file sorting, and I have to keep dragging, dropping, moving, deleting files, kind of gets annoying after a while.
