I'm using Sab and Newsbin on 1 computer. If I download using SAB, my downloads are capped at 11.2MB/s, if I download the same file using Newsbin pro, I get 60+MB/s

I can occassionally get 60+MB/s after a reboot (sometimes works, sometimes doesn't), but it's usually capped at 11. I've gone through all of the setup and there is nothing I can see that is capping the download. Please help!

Same as your post viewtopic.php?p=124578#p124578 ?

In SABnzbd's upper right corner, click on the wrench symbol ("Status and interface options"), then click on first tab Status, and therev click on the Refresh Arrow ... what number do you get for CPU and disks and Internet? Post it here.

That is the speed experienced by SABnzbd. And your download speed cannot be higher than that.

I suspect you're mixing bits and Bytes, so:

What do you get on https://fast.com/ ?

86mbps

I assume 86 Mbps (with a capital M = Mega. And not m = mini)

Anyway: perfect:
you have a line of 86 Mbps, which is about 10.8 MB/s (divide by 8 ).

SABnzbd reports in MB/s. And you get the expected 10.8 MB/s

See https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/faq#toc31

if I download the same file using Newsbin pro, I get 60+MB/s

Newsbin Pro reports in Mbps. Again, you're probably mixing bits and Bytes.

Proof Newsbin Pro reports in Mbps (not MB/s): lower-left corner of https://tweakers.net/ext/i/1307280840.png

HTH

except i can occasionally get the full speed in Sab, just 99% of the time it's capped at 10-11, but sometimes I will get the full 60. it should be 60 not 10

Right.

Anyway: use Newsbin Pro if you like that more.

reset modem, getting full bandwidth now
