	Did they ever figure out why there was suddenly not enough ram in the router? Possibly the release of IPv6 on the internet as the issues started about the same time IIRC. ____________ SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the BP6/VP6 User Group today!

	Wow, I don't think there's any question this has actually been effecting us all to a major degree. Work units are flying in here at 4 seconds each (pretty much where I have the cap set on my end), no delays, no timeouts, no having to retry over and over. According to the graphs it looks like your bandwidth use has been almost cut in HALF. Nothing kills a network like a flaky router... Kudos! ____________

	The bandwidth use has nothing to do with the router fix........ Well, I'm not going to argue about it, but I'm not so sure. Seems to me the cap has been in place for a while now, but maybe not as long as I was thinking. Both changes are certainly making an improvement, and things are running better right now than they have in a very long while. I guess that's all that matters. ____________

	Sorry everyone, I obviously jinxed it by mentioning how well everything was working! Oh well, just back to normal I guess. It's all moving, just not as fast as we'd like. ____________

	It looks more like a server side problem than the router. Have a look at the "server status" page, its last update as 21:20UTS... Also some discussion on the number crunchers thread. ____________ Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe?

	I can't download any WUs... Sorry, but "user can't download" is not news. Please discuss in Number Crunching, or read the diagnostics which other users have already posted there.

	Just got back on BOINC after my 2 Macs were stolen. I installed BOINC on both new replacements using the default settings on both. On the Macbook, both Seti@home and Rosetta are working fine. On iMac, both Seti@home and Rosetta show as Projects but only Rosetta is showing any tasks. I haven't done anything different in the installations. Highlighting seti, hitting update gives the status Scheduler request pending Communication deferred for 5 minutes. Any suggestions how I can get Seti running on the iMac?

	Sorry to hear about your Macs being stolen. You can find plenty of help outside of this News forum at Questions and Answers, or some of the best minds can be found in Number Crunching.

	Now to see if the thief is smart enough to turn off seti or just let it run in background and get tracked to their new homes :-) ____________
