i just installed bionic and its taken over an hour and nothing has downloaded completely on the 'transferred' page...most speed im getting is 1 or 2 kb a sec and nothing has completed yet...it stops and says pending and moves on to another. Im in indiana and im on comcast high speed internet. The upload and download is set at sero so i changed it to 2000 up and down and it didnt change anything. Getting a little aggravating...hell it took me 10 minutes and several retries to get this forum page open. Thanks

i should add im running xp pro sp2...4gigs ram and intel celeron E3300 2.5 Ghz

also on the main window for bionic in the 'tasks' window...i only have selected SETI but there are 2 SETI's listed in the drop down menu and they are at different time remaining...i only selected SETI one time in the start up config. So far its been on 1hr and 35 minutes and its at 32.8 percent done

Hi there, you've reached the BOINC forums. It's BOINC, not Bionic or any other way of spelling.

Seti is a project that has the most contributors and are only allowed to use a maximum of 100Mbit of the dedicated LAN connection of the University of Berkeley, for their upload and download servers. This means that their connection is well and truly saturated most days of the week.

We here at BOINC can't help you out on anything project specific, including how fast downloads come in. It'll be the same speeds for everyone around the globe. The least you can do is complain about it on their own forums, or read what you could possibly change on your computer to speed things up.

If you want to complain, use their HelpDesk forums for now, since you won't have any credit or RAC necessary to post in their main forums.

Or read up on Windows TCP Settings - Follow up - Help with server communication in the Number Crunching forum. You require credit/RAC here if you want to post.

That the pages here were slow earlier was possibly a database problem. I noticed it earlier last evening, but since the domain stayed up, didn't think too much of it. It happens, it's computers.
