Bandwidth control bug

Post by 73peter »

Hi!

I just tried Core FTP 1.2 Lite because it claimed to have bandwidth control. So, I tried changing the recv and send sizes to 35000 (approx 35KB/s) and later altered the values (both) to 1000. Core FTP still however was using my entire bandwidth (64KB/s), independent of how the recv and send fields were set (connected to ftp.sunet.se, downloading RedHat's most recent Linux distribution).

Hence I uninstalled the FTP client since bandwidth control was the main reason for installing it.

I will consider installing a bug fixed version when one exists or when you have proven that it is all my fault ;-)

/ Regards, Peter

Bandwidth seems not working in CoreFTPlite build 1200.
I use it with XP Pro UK workstation
download works good: but no way to limit bandwidth used


Thank you,
Laurent.

One test

Post by kralisec »

I try to download from ftp://ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/scanners/sof ... j664en.exe
I put in Options/Connections/CPS Settings: 100000
(I'll doubleck, It's not a million)

Download time estimated with 512Kb leased line: about 25mn.

After 5mn, 11,5Mo was downloaded and bandwidth use is 57Ko/s
(456Kb / 512Kb max)

Do you think I miss something ?


Thank you for any help,
Laurent.

Sorry: when I'll write 57Kb, I would say 57KB (64KB max)
(less than 5mn for 11,5Mo, more than 40KB/s with 25 000 cps settings)


Still no way do use this feature.



Thank you for your help,
Laurent.
