I'll pay someone if they can give me the answer
Hi I've left messages in here before but the questions fall dead.
My file transfer rate Goes fantastic for about 20 seconds then they practically stop dead. Like 0.5k a sec tops. Here's the dialogue already had about this: QUESTION: "If you click the Tools menu, then Options, then click the Connection category, does it indicate that you're using a UPnP NAT?" ANSWER: It says: You are directly connect to the .NET Messenger Service. You are connected to the Internet through wired network connection. and... You are connected to the Internet through a UPnP port restricted NAT. I basically know what that means, but don't know if it's bad or not.. I've added many UPnP port forwards to my router settings.. directed at my machine's LAN IP and it's still virtually halting aftter 3 seconds QUESTION: are you sending to the same person in particular? I ask because if they're in some environment where outgoing connections are restricted, they would see this problem which would be unrelated to you. ANSWER: -- The answer would be "no" - The transfer speed ALWAYS drops from regular speed to about 0.5k/s after a few seconds no matter who I'm sending it to - even if I send it to another MSN account on the same computer... (I loaded a NG stuffplug's polygamy patch just to try it) I've tried Forums, I've tried no router, I've tried no firewall, I've tried uninstalling everything.. I've tried reinstalling. But the fuggin program will NOT send files properly. What the HELL? (As you can see it's bee going on for some time now and it is really starting to **** me off.) And go. |

Hmm.. if you can't send to your own PC it sounds like it's being blocked at the PC, thus
meaning there is some piece of software that's blocking the connection, even to your own PC. To be fair, file transfer has never been of Messenger's strong points (although MSN Messenger 5 had things done pretty well) but it sure sounds from your evidence that things are being blocked on the PC. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2005 Jonathan Kay.

Hi Kenny,
Not really, it's still the same thing with some synchronization. I believe they had this support done before they even bought FolderShare as it's not exactly difficult. For instance, you can make your own rather quickly using the FileSystemWatcher class in the .NET framework. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2005 Jonathan Kay.

Hi,
It's not "leaking" -- Messenger [obviously] is able to connect. After failing a direct connection between you and your contact it then uses your existing connection to Messenger to push through the file through (at a slow throttled rate) -- that's what you're seeing. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2005 Jonathan Kay.

It's not a fix, but it may be a workaround. Try using Trillian. It'll
connect to MSN, but I think it uses different ports. My org doesn't allow MSN Messenger to connect, but Trillian will connect. Worth a shot... |

Spyware software, Anti Virus software or indexing (Desktop Search) could slow
the transfer rate. In this case it's not blocking but your system is not allowing the file to save as quickly as one would like. Try an FTP connection and see if you get simmilar results. I'm not sure if MSN MEssenger uses TFTP but if it does it could also be a local port sharing issue. "thedave" wrote: but it sure sounds from your evidence that things are being blocked on the PC.

ANSWER: -- The answer would be "no" - The transfer speed ALWAYS drops from regular speed to about 0.5k/s after a few seconds no matter who I'm sending it to - even if I send it to another MSN account on the same computer... (I loaded a NG stuffplug's polygamy patch just to try it) I've tried Forums, I've tried no router, I've tried no firewall, I've tried uninstalling everything.. I've tried reinstalling. But the fuggin program will NOT send files properly. What the HELL? (As you can see it's bee going on for some time now and it is really starting to **** me off.) And go. |
