MegaUpload problems

Post by Shattered »

For three days I experience the following problem:

While downloading a file it stops at random and I get a time out. Then I have to wait before I can try again because MU thinks I'm still downloading a file. It happens with manual downloading and JDownloader.

I hope it's temporary. Is anyone else having similar issues?

Man, finally someone that have theese same problems!!. I had the same problem from 1 month ago. i was using usdownloader and freedownloadmanager and it stops on many files at random size. And they don´t explain no one what´s happening. I think that the problem is that these hosters are beginning to feel the bandwidth slowdowns on the planet, that because the streamming media like Youtube or any kind of web 2.0 sites. so if you wanna download something important do it now!!!. :o

I haven't experienced that problem and I've downloaded tons of stuff from Megaupload. Maybe it's because of the highbandwidth usage on the weekends?

Well, the problem is still going on here. I can't even snatch a 50 MB file without getting timeouts. I also never had problems with it before.

I'm having a different problem with it.

When I'm using the multi-uploader, it gets stuck in an infinite loop of uploading and never finishing. Which kind of sucks when it takes 30-40 minutes to upload a file. I'm guessing this has to do with buffers becoming full and then not flushing data, but as I said this is only a guess.

Maybe its because the type of user you are. Maybe you are premium or maybe deppending on where you live. They had have priority connections that we don´t know. Just maybe :o

Very doubtful, its more likely that I just need to close/open my browser to clear the memory it uses and if that doesn't flush the memory, reset the pc instead.

It looks like the problem is gone. I downloaded some big files from MU (the uploads by Meddle) without any time outs. Also thanks for the uploads ;)

Maybe it had something to do with the server(s) the files were on.
