SABnzbd Forums

Hi there,
I just installed express vpn and newshosting and SABnzbd. When trying to download it does not work. The download speeds are so low, while testing the download speed using "the wrench" i get 25 mb per second. I have a subscription for 30 connects, but when i increase above 502 i get an error that there are to many connections to newshosting (while i set both SABnzbd and newshosting to the correct 30 connects, but i have to lower to 2 otherwise it wont work). Even with 2 connects the download speed is virtually nonexistant.
What is going on, what am i doing wrong?
Regards

Do some extra tests:

Without the express VPN, do a test download: In SABnzbd's upper right corner, click on the wrench symbol ("Status and interface options"), then click on first tab Status, and there click on "Test download" 100MB or 1000MB. What is the speed?

Then, same test, with the express VPN on. What is the speed?

Without VPN 13,4 mb/s and with VPN 11,4 mb/s

OK ... are you happy with those speeds?

If a real download "drops to zero", it is a missing post. See the FAQ, for example https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/faq#toc12
