    Welcome to the team. Yea, that connection is more than enough. The one thing you have to watch out for is upload backlog.

    Many thanks for joining, an 8mbit connection has the potential to get 4 mil+ with the right tweaks which is a great amount.

    - leave persitient connection on
    - turn off "uploads in 64MB chunks'
    - get at least 50 crawlers going
    - allow x open buckets > I say 7
    - that's all I can think of now...

    I wish we had more....my school decided to play hardball with me

    REWIND

    they told me about a week ago, after only a couple days of MJ12, that they had pulled my internet connection....well, they didn't, I was on and still doing 13Mil/day....then I got a second notice wondering why I hadn't try to reactive my internet (note: still online).....then last night I got a third notice that was pretty bitter (about me not reinstating my internet, LOL)....but still had internet. Then about 15 minutes later, went off, only giving me access to the quarantine network (Leper Island....is there a flag for that?), then the help desk closed. So I was fuct all night as I had to research and write my 6page term paper about some dumb picture....didn't get my internet back until like 10AM this morning after I proved I didn't have a virus.

    So yeah, XSTM may have a lot of firepower but next time I use my portion of it, it'll cost me a week off the network and $25

    Question This is coming from the person(s) who have been burying us

    Just ignore the 'other' MM

    Besides I'm helping 1st, & if he decides to help us back (Subliminal ) That's okay too
    Or he can be independent

    As for vapor's Temp Status as flagship: it was nice while it lasted (Did'ya ask them how MUCH BW you can use w/o issue? ) Just a thought.

    AAdjuster: I didn't get it but I DID send another PM, so TAG you're it (Mad Mikee's 1st law: nothing is ever simple )

    They didn't believe me when I told them it was a program I installed....they said the power-browsing coming from my computer was absolutely a virus....never got to the 'how much bandwidth can I use' question

    Talking I'm Baacckkk!

    The info you requested has been pmed

    Oh and now we are now Happy Holidays from XSTM!
    (Getting into the festive mood )

    Welcome AAdjuster to the XSTM family ( @ Dave )

    (Oh since he's on cable & is not sure of his BW limitations if any (yes he will find it out ASAP) I set him up to be limited to 4M DL for now. )

    Hey Vapor, Be a NAG! (My wife says I'm good @ it )
    Just keep:

    1. Send them to the MJ-12 site.
    2. Get Alex to send them a 'doctor's note'
    3. Offer a demo
    4. Ask 'What is your idea of acceptable usage (anything is better than 0 )
    5. IF you play it right, you never know, might be able to get a rep to parlay this into 'sponsorship of various DC projects' by the school. (& yeah prolly pain to go w/ the gain) But I think BIG

    OTOH I'm not the 1 that I'm telling to push this so...
