I think RS is CHEATING users. I'm in a process of downloading 1GB worth of files (non of them finished yet) but RS has deducted 2GB of my daily bandwidth. WTF!!!

QUOTE(FarCry3r @ Jan 6 2009, 06:38 PM) RS already warned user about extra bandwidth used if you're downloading using download manager, so either your account hacked or you're using download manager. switch to browser built-in downloader and problem solved. What? Extra mean double? Thats Crazy man!!! RS is suck. |

QUOTE(alwizbthere @ Jan 6 2009, 07:35 PM) which Download manager are u using? Orbit download manager. Thats what I use.i have no such problem with FreeDownloadManager Bandwidth used as stated on the website  Added on January 6, 2009, 7:50 pm QUOTE(ibnuasad @ Jan 6 2009, 07:30 PM) Lol...before you blame RS, you should blame urself for not reading their official FAQ before buying a premium account Can you give me the link? http://rapidshare.com/faq10.html The display of the used traffic is incorrect. Download Managers cause additional data traffic, e.g. if you download a large file in parallel parts, as opposed to downloading the whole file at once. This results in more data traffic than corresponds to the size of the file. The more such parallel streams are initiated, the more additional traffic is generated. RapidShare accurately logs the data traffic that leaves our own network. Use RapidShare Manager if u don't want to waste bandwidth  This post has been edited by Spade: Jan 6 2009, 07:50 PM |

QUOTE(FarCry3r @ Jan 7 2009, 07:46 AM) That is TMNut problem. TMNut only guaranty fast internet access to local sites, if oversea, you know the answers mah... No its not. TMnut maybe one of the culprit but when I can download Linux iso and others at a very fast rate then I know its RapidShare is the one to blame. |

QUOTE(ibnuasad @ Jan 7 2009, 10:00 AM) 1) Download 10 files simultaneously. Just make sure there are no parallel connection for each file. <-- Can get good speed but you'll have no idea which file will finish first, but at least this way you can save bandwidth Thanks bro. I'm trying you 1st advice as we speak. 2) Use download manager and download 1 file at a time. Make sure there are at least 5 parallel connections. <-- This is if you want speed, but it will take an extra 10-20% of bandwidth Every service has it's pros and cons  As for 2nd one, its not just 10-20% penalty, its even more than 250%, yes more than two hundred and fifty percent (no typo). Believe me I have found out the hard way yesterday. Download a little less then 1.1GB worth of files but used up all of my bandwidth for the day and still haven't finished that download. Added on January 7, 2009, 10:53 am QUOTE(FarCry3r @ Jan 7 2009, 10:07 AM) If Rapidshare is at fault, can you explain why I'm always getting fullspeed? Almost all the time? If its not because of RapidShare, can you please explain me why I get full speed for all downloads (except for areas effected by fibre cable broke down). Can't explain that can you? Me too. I guess we can blame them both. What do you think? It's TMNut problem. Didn't I said earlier, TMNut didn't guarantee speed to oversea website, so the experiences may vary from one host to another.

QUOTE(FarCry3r @ Jan 7 2009, 11:26 AM) Wasn't you just answered it yourself? I guess you have to read back my earlier post and understand what is my real question is. Added on January 7, 2009, 12:44 pm QUOTE(ibnuasad @ Jan 7 2009, 11:27 AM) I forgot to give you the link to RSM = http://rapidshare.com/rsm.html. RSM actually works with XP too but the installer file provided at the page is for Vista Only. To get the XP version, contact RapidShare Support and they'll give you another download link. With a lot of RS accounts being phished / hacked for the past few months, its safer to get the official download link from RS themselves Thanks bro. Will look into it.

QUOTE(ibnuasad @ Jan 7 2009, 11:27 AM) In that case, contact RapidShare Support. Maybe there's a bug with their system or servers. I'm downloading 350MB with all single thread (no download manager speed trick) and still they deduct 600MB. After my account expired I will move away from FS for good. F**C RapidShare.As for contacting RapidShare support. Is it worth it? Are they responsive? |

QUOTE(ibnuasad @ Jan 7 2009, 01:05 PM) I've contacted RapidShare Support several times last year and the fastest response I got from them was 18 minutes (real response from their support team -- not the automatic response), the slowest response was 66 hours. I have sent an email to them. So far only received auto reply form them.But for what's it's worth, RapidShare Support are very responsive (especially if you report a possible bug). The time-frame of their response really depends on the number of emails they get everyday. |

QUOTE(FarCry3r @ Jan 7 2009, 11:14 PM) You sure have a weird problem which I never got in the first place. Weird world huh? You know what. Today the issue seems to have gone (so far) but they have yet to reply my email regarding the matter. guess RapidShare does not want to admit their guilty and that is also (I think) the reason why they did not return my bandwidth that they unjustly stole from me for the last few days.Updated: The problem with my bandwidth happening again, DAMN!!!
