How to increase upload bandwidth

I agree it is a bug in Invision, but usually with 2 sends I can max out my bandwidth, would be nice if I could do it with 1 send though. I don't see how setting it to send 60+ sends solves this problem.

Listen, if you're maxing out your bandwidth already with 2 Set at total, I'm happy for you.

SO why are you even looking in here? You obviously don't have a banwidth problem according to you, so don't even read this.

For those of you who are not achieving your maximum upload banwidth this trick will work for you. If you don't have a problem don't fix it.

If you want to test me on this. Then do put 1 and 60 and tell me it doesn't send a one file at your full upload bandwidth capacity.

I send just one file at a time. And by putting TOTAL MAX SEND at 60, I reach my total bandwidth.

If I put it to send 2 files at a time. And leave it at 60, then one user always sucks bytes more than the other. You'd have to play around with this number.


My instructions are for sending ONE FILE AT A TIME

I'm sorry but if your setting the TOTAL MAX SEND to 60, then your allowing 60 sends. TOTAL MAX SEND has nothing to do with speed, it is how many total sends your server will do. And we do have a problem with maxing out our bandwidth, we would like all our bandwidth used with just 1 send, not 2 or 60. If you just do a plain DCC SEND it uses all the bandwidth, but with the file server it doesn't. Come up with a real trick on beating that, and you will have something.

Who are you morons? If you don't have problems with your upload speed don't read this.


MAX SENDS has nothing to do with speed, which is why it is a bug.


By increasing max sends to total of 60, you are allowing a receiver to receive more bytes from you on one file. By limiting this number, Invision is putting a cap on the total amount of bytes a receiver will get per file.

Stop arguing you idiots. And try it. I have done it and experimented with it on various machines. What have you people done other than try to argue without even trying it?

If you are maxing out your bandwidth with ONE SEND, then for the life of me I can't even explain why you waste your time even looking at these instructions. Get a life.

For those who are having bandwidth problems and are not using all of it despite all you have tried, use this trick. The trick is illogical because the final part has nothing to do with speed, yet it is a bug in invision that can increase speed.

Name calling will accomplish NOTHING. Keep your attitude and unpleasantries to yourself.

Thank you.

ok, even if ur sayin it's a bug in invision, then tell me what would prevent invision from sending up to 60 sends at once if people were able to queue up, unless u stop/resume the server after each send, makin sure no1 else is able to request from u till the first send finishes. my server runs 24/7 and i ain't got time to make sure of that. ur theory only works to a point, if it's sendin to one person, once people see u have 59 slots open, they'll come right in and that'll be worse than before. get ur facts straight and no need to namecall if u can't even debate ur theory.
