I am running XP Home, V5.1, SP2.
I occasionally download backup data files from a web site that tend to get as large as 20 or 30 MB. Recently, I have lost the ability to download files this large. The download will begin and after part of the file has been downloaded, it will get stuck. After being stuck for about 45 seconds, a dialog box pops up that says I am unable to download that file because the connection to the server was reset. When I first observed this, it would get stuck at the 4 MB level. When I tried doing this yesterday, I was able to get to the 8 MB level. I have not knowingly adjusted any settings to cause this, but they may have been changed while doing routine updates. The technicians that run the web site say there is no problem with the web site, and my internet provider says there is no problem on their end and that the problem is probably due to a setting on my computer. I saw article number 900900 in the knowledge base that referred to a 50 MB limit for downloading, but the files I am trying to download are much smaller than that. I tried to follow the directions in that article and set the limit at 50 MB, but it did not improve my download performance. Does anybody have any recommendations on what I need to do? Thank you very much in advance for your help! |

My screen saver caused all kinds of problems with long downloads when I was on a dial up account so I turned it off and never turned it back on. |

I do not currently have an active screen saver, and the "connection reset" dialog box occurs way before anything is turned off by a power saving setting. I was able to download these data files without difficulty in early May, so this problem is a recent occurrence. A system setting change due to a Windows update is the only thing that seems to make sense to me. What other possibilities might there be? |

First level customer support responses can be useless at best, and misleading and time wasting at worst. I can't suggest an ISP setting to look at because you have given no details of how you connnect, your ISP, what type of connection, what software is used, what you mean by "I occasionally download backup data files from a web site", whether you have any other connnectivity problems, whether you have an problem with large downloads from other web sites ...

MTU has nothing to do with transmission file size, only the packet size.
Picking an optimal MTU size can increase thruput, but doesn't affect file size.

What type of connection do you have? Broadband / dial up capacity? Is the time you download a factor i.e. busy or off peak? Is the connection wireless, ethernet or USB? -- Hope this helps.

I resolved the problem by increasing the size of the Temporary Internet Files folder in Internet Options = General tab. Don't know if this would be your situation. |

When you download a file, you are asked to specify the directory in which you wish to save the file. And there it is saved, NOT in the Internet cache.

If this is a DSL or dial-up account, very small problems with the telephone line can cause data loss in the transmission of the file. If your ISP is any good, they should test your connection by sending to you a very large file and then have that file returned to them. My ISP did this for me and discovered that the download and upload speeds were not within acceptable range and they requested the telephone company to check out the lines. Also, have you tried downloading without using the download manager that is mentioned in another post? -- Ron P Member of the invisible generation |

Thank you very much to all that have replied to this thread.
I have a Verizon DSL connection running through a Belkin router. My desktop is hardwired to the router via ethernet cable and I connect wirelessly to a laptop. I have been unable to download my larger backup files to either computer. Both run Win XP Home Edition. I called Verizon's tech support this morning about a different connectivity issue. I lost the ability to connect to the internet using Internet Explorer, although Outlook Express worked fine for both email and the Usenet newsgroups. They did two line tests. The first indicated there was a small problem with the DSL line. After rebooting the computer, router and modem, the second line test indicated the connection was clear. I tried to download my data file again, and was able to get about 10 MB downloaded before getting the dialog box saying the internet connection has been reset. This occurred on both desktop and laptop. This was an improvement because previously the connection was gettging reset after downloading about 4 MB. The time of day does not appear to have any effect on this problem. I have tried before 8 am, after 10 pm and in the afternoon. I told the Verizon people that there are no problems with the web sites I am downloading from because I can download the files from other computers outside my home. I don’t usually download large files from any other location, other than perhaps the Microsoft Windows and Office Update sites. This problem has only appeared sometime in the past 2 months. Prior to May this problem did not exist. Verizon is not interested in doing anything further because they think it a computer issue and not an internet connection issue, even though the internet connection is getting reset for some reason.

The technicians that run the web site say there is no problem with the web site, and my internet provider says there is no problem on their end and that the problem is probably due to a setting on my computer. I saw article number 900900 in the knowledge base that referred to a 50 MB limit for downloading, but the files I am trying to download are much smaller than that. I tried to follow the directions in that article and set the limit at 50 MB, but it did not improve my download performance. Does anybody have any recommendations on what I need to do? Thank you very much in advance for your help! Hi Jim, Does your Connection is secure (you implemented a SSID and an Encryption Key)?. There is a setting on thwe router to limit the download, if this set then to what (value)?. Did you scan your computer for malware and viruses, what protection software you have, some updates for Anti-Virus, Anti-malware recently caused similar issues. Third party toolbars installed, graphic accelrator installed ( go to the add/remove programs and check what there). Run Disk cleanu up then run this command: sfc /scannow click [OK] To Phil: Claymore correct if the Temp is corrupted it can effect the download (corrupt the download or inturrpt the download procedure).
