New to SAB...help please !!!

Post by scottywhu »

Guys/Girls

Hopefully someone will be able to help me out on this problem I seem to have regarding this speed issue.

My Isp is Virgin Media, I have the Biggest package(100Meg) therefore I have no throttling or capping !!

I've just changed to Sabnzbd from ALt Binz, but for some reason I cant get my speed up ----normally about 2.0MB/s at best.....even down to 12KB/s. I have set my port to 443 and enabled SSL.

These are my details :

Port 443
Connections 10
SSL Enabled
Retention 1700 days
Article Cache Limit 200M

I have run a speed test and I am getting download speeds around the 100MB mark, so I feel it has nothing to do with my provider.

I really want to continue to use Sab as I like the interface and what you can do with it (XBMC, etc)-- but feel I have no option but to revert back to Alt binz if I cant find a solution-- taking me nearly 40 mins to download a small file.

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Scott

On what kind of hardware are you running SABnzbd?
Which Usenet provider?

I had this exact problem with the same ISP a few hours ago (also brand new)

I uninstalled then reinstalled with port 443 and entered my nzbmatrix data on the setup wizard and it seems to work now for some reason.. Maybe try a fresh install if you haven't already? I only say this because it worked for me but I assumed it was because of the port change which you say you have already done..
