Able To Surf But Unable To Download?!

[gb_baran]

Can anyone help me with this problem. I am able to surf with full speeds but when I download I don't get any data. The download starts and does nothing. I have a firewall and I even switched off the whole firewall application, but the problem still persists. I even reinstalled XP and the problem is still there.One thing I noticed is that when I try to download with any download accelerator, the accelerator usually splits the file into parts (say 5 parts). I get data from all the four connections except the first one... resulting in partial download of the file. Can anyone PLEAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEE solve this problem. I am using Firefox 2 with Windows XP, BSNL 256Kbps with Type IV modem(MT841). I am experiencing this problem for more than a week and I miss all those stuff I used to download. I will be really GRATEFUL to the person who solves this.

why do people use download accelerator plus when they can use flashget... btw i love how winzip 11 allows me to check previews of images without unzipping them!

Oh great Subush, I am desperate for a solution and you are giving your opinion about download accelerators and winzip??! :blink: Oh that was a very helpful comment

u are using a software which is generally considered a spyware. and you are downloading a software which i think is pretty cool. 🙂 ok i am not being helpful here but your problem would kinda need more inputs as it is more of a system specific problem.

I saw that you had the same problem from the other topic. I loaded the setup defaults in the BIOS but nothing seem to work out. Are you sure this is the solution to this problem or is this a problem with the ISP?

Anyway THANKS A LOT for your reply!!!! I'll try that again...

why dont you take the modem to your friends home (who has dataone ) and check if your modem works on his/her computer. If it works then its your computer hardware problem.

I don't have anyone that has a broadband. I tried Load Setup Defaults in the Bios. It seemed to work for the first time and then all of a sudden it went wrong. Again I tried loading setup defaults in the Bios but nothing happened. I still have the same problem... 🙁

Are u able to browse all sites ? I mean I had a issues where I could browse sites and some were totally giving a timeout ( like hotmail , msn IM etc ) and there was a problem with a setting in my router.
So just wanted to check if you can browse all sites and at a reasonable speed ?

Yes I am able to surf sites at full speeds. But only thing is the first connection does not start when I am trying to download something. You can see from the pics posted above. I already tried setting the modem to its default configuration but nothing helped.

man i m also 900 UL user, i think we r being screwed Up by BSNL, my friend on 500 is getting real gud speeds approaching 2mbps as per plan, but i m getting shitty speeds as low as 6 kbps (Even dialup was faster 🙁 ) .......The internet principle is based on the fact that" NOt all users use internet at same time", i think since our speeds r resrticted to 256 kbps. Thats causing whole trouble, man this is hell!!Our bandwidth is being sacrifised to give 2mbps speeds to other users???WTF!!!
