Apologies if this has been asked before...
I notice that whenever Boinc downloads or uploads anything it runs two at once. I'd rather it only did one at a time, as I'm only on dialup, and they fight each other for the limited bandwidth. Any ideas on how to make this happen? Restricting bandwidth in the account is not the answer, as I want it to use all I've got :-) but only serially.

You might want to post this on the wishlist forum. I believe that it is not available as a setting. With DSL or fractional T1, I would prefer 4 at once, but I can live with 2. I take it dialup access has trouble with 2 at once sometimes?
