March 3, 201313 yr Hello, Got a new unRaid build. I loaded the unplugged Influncer versions of SAB. I was using SAB on windows. WOkred fine. Replicated the same settings on the SAB on the unRaid box. And what I see is that the speed of the downloads drops to 0 on a very frequent basis. It will be running at 1.4 MB/s and then 0. And will stay at 0 for about 3-5 min...sometimes longer, and sometimes will go back to 1.4 MB/s by itself, and sometimes I have to restart SAB to get it to resume. Any thoughts on why it would be so different?
March 3, 201313 yr On the status page, what do you see? Personally sounds like your usenet provider is dropping your connections/your net is dropping.
March 3, 201313 yr What is the NSP? How many connections do you have to the NSP? What are the specs of the unRAID box? Also, the title of your thread is incorrect.
March 4, 201313 yr Author NSP = Newsgroup Direct direct/Astraweb (ISP = ATT) Connections - Ive started at 20...now down to 10....per server(NewsGroup/Astraweb) Unraid specs = core i3, 4 gig RAM, 3x 3tb HDD (1 parity 2x data) 1 500gig Cache. Gigabit network connection
March 4, 201313 yr Weird. I can't think of why that would happen. I'd check the Status page of SABnzbd to see what's happening.
March 4, 201313 yr You may try upping your article cache limit to see if that may help. I have mine set to 250M. If you replicated your previous settings, it sounds like your network/connection should be good to go. But I have found that when I use too many connections, I saturate my network and get slower speeds than if I set it to less connections that max out my bandwidth. In my case, I seem to hit my download max (3.3MBs/s) with 9 connections. Also, if you're downloading an older post, you'll notice significantly lower speeds. You may get better help asking in the Unplugged thread and posting a screen shot of the plugin config.
March 7, 201313 yr Make sure you have a Cat5e or Cat6 cable hooked to your server. I have had this problem in the past when I moved my server and attached the wrong cable.

March 7, 201313 yr Author It may have been a Provider issue (Usenet) Everything seems to have leveled out.... Just to confirm...it is a CAT6 cable..brand new....even tried 2 of them...one store bought and one that I had crimped myself.
April 5, 201313 yr I had this problem and found it was due to ISP throttling of ports 119 and 563. I'm not sure if your news provider allows but mine provides service over other ports that ISPs don't normally throttle like 80 and 443. I ended up using 443 and haven't seen and drop in speed since.

I honestly doubt his WAN speed is even remotely capped by his ethernet cable. In this day and age it's not too far fetched. My connection is provisioned to ~115Mbps. A non Cat5e/6 I had hooked up to my cable modem to my router was limiting my speeds. Switched to Cat5e and it opened up all the way.

Well, I'm running 7Mbps, and, even if he was running 10Mbit on a Gbit connection, it doesn't mean it'd drop, it'd just mean that it'd be slower.

I was talking about your statement. Could possibly be a bad cable though.
