Aaron Posted November 4, 2001 Share Posted November 4, 2001 hmm... I can download about 5 or 10 files at a time here, worked in IE4/5/6But I always use a download manager for downloading files now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted November 4, 2001 Share Posted November 4, 2001 When I d/l using Download Accelerator it will d/l 2 at a time...if I start more, the others start as soon as the two are done. I haven't checked to see if there is a setting to let more than 2 d/l though.Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XPerties Posted November 5, 2001 Share Posted November 5, 2001 The only time I run into this is when Im trying to download more than 2 files from the same website. Besides that Ive been download up to 10 files at a time and no promblem.-XPerties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted November 5, 2001 Share Posted November 5, 2001 Yes, Chris is right...it was when I was downloading from the same site that I could only d/l two at a time...which is probably what you were doing.Rick:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikNt Posted November 5, 2001 Author Share Posted November 5, 2001 Yes... you right... but I think if you tweak IE you will be able to d/l more then 2 files from the same site... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted November 5, 2001 Share Posted November 5, 2001 You may be able to but I know that the servers that you d/l from limit the amount of d/l's from the same IP. If you find the tweak...let me know.Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPerties Posted November 6, 2001 Share Posted November 6, 2001 I dont believe that you can tweak IE for that. This is the server your downloading from not IE. But Ive been wrong before....just dont think this time I am.:spaced -XPerties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikNt Posted November 12, 2001 Author Share Posted November 12, 2001 You all guys right, it's the IP from where you download. You can't download more then two files at the same time from the same IP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribe98 Posted November 12, 2001 Share Posted November 12, 2001 It is an http 1.1 setting. You need to edit a key in the registry. I cannot remember which one right now. But if you download a program called X-Setup. It has an option to do it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babis Posted December 1, 2001 Share Posted December 1, 2001 just to reinforce what Panda said about the tweak, well it was mentioned @ the ms websiteHere is the link:[b:90fd4f44d4]http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q282402[/b:90fd4f44d4]Lazy? well here is the bottom line:[i:90fd4f44d4]To comply with current Requests for Comments (RFC), Internet Explorer limits the number of simultaneous downloads to two downloads, plus one queued download. This configuration is a function of the browser. However, as connection speeds increase, and the number of total connections that are allowed to Internet servers increase, the two-connection limit may be restrictive. To increase the number of simultaneous connections that are allowed to 10, follow these steps: [/i:90fd4f44d4]01. Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe). 02. Locate the following key in the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionInternet Settings 03. On the Edit menu, click Add Value , and then add the following registry values: "MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server"=Dword:0000000a "MaxConnectionsPerServer"=Dword:0000000a 04. Quit Registry Editor.
