Upload issues

While posting vids, I always seem to get knocked off, timed out, if I attempt to load more than 2- 20mb files at a time. I am forced to load 2, wait, post, reply, load 2 more, wait, reply and so on. Is this normal? Also, load time is extremely slow, like 15 minutes for 40 mb. (I am loading from an external HD through a USB, perhaps that is why it's so slow.)
Please advise. Thanks.

the external would be my guess at the prob...

Hi

Actually I've had the same problem, but my drives are internal SATA RAID, on a quad - so I'm pretty sure its bandwith related. I'm on broadband but its ADSL not DSL, so limited to 1Mb upstream...

Seems ok at the moment though...

I'm on cable modem so its lightening fast, at least for D/L's. I suspect it's the external HD. But why am I timed out all the time?

Check what ratio allocation you have between upload an download... Worked for me.

How do I check it? How do I adjust it if necessary? What ratio am I looking for--what is the ideal spread? Thx.

Maybe I missed it but was this question ever answered?

Thanks
